The music video is chilling and I highly recommend.

Some quotes:

  • "And Elon, we know exactly what that was bruh"
  • "If you still haven’t said shit about the genocide, know your grandkids one day are gonna ask you why "
  • "Just 2 weeks in think were we’ll be around July"

Edit: Uncensored the song title as requested - I fucking love Lemmy :)

If you want to support speaking out against Trump, you could start by un-censoring the song title so that people can search for it properly. This is Lemmy; you're allowed to say "Fucked Up."

Edit: thank you!

This is Lemmy; you're allowed to say "Fucked Up."

Listen up, as your Eat Fresh and Free Public Defense Attorney sponsored by Subway, I have to tell you they've got you for a violation of the McDonald's Play Place Act. The Corporate Freedom Force shows you violating your right to self-censorship on social media, a violation of the PP Act punishable by a minimum of 10 years in the Ronald McDonald Federal Freedom Penitentiary. That's right, kid: the ball pen. Your best shot is to plead for the mercy of the court, but you've gotta plead "I'm Lovin' It" and make the social network of your peers believe you're d*rn well loving it, otherwise you're still going to be fixing McFlurry machines when you're 20.

Music is one of the best avenues of protest. It reaches the hearts and souls of millions. Especially by big names like Macklemore.

Hell, Green Day's American Idiot, NoFX's Franco Unamerican, and Linkin Park's Hands Held High live rent free in my head these days

EDIT: and James McMurty's God Bless America (Pat MacDonald Must Die)

Words make you think a thought. Music makes you feel a feeling. A song makes you feel a thought.

Amazing, thank you for sharing. Although since Macklemore didn't censor anything, uncensor that title.

This guy really wants to have his cake and it too.

Profiting off of a situation he advocated for is gross.
