    Funny thing is I would have never listened to kid rock except my mom bought me one of his cds when I was like 12 because she thought it was rock music for kids.

      It was rock music for kids, Kid Rock even has a song about it.

      Young ladies, young ladies, I like ‘em underage,” Rock sings on the track. “See some say that’s statutory.” His sidekick at the time, the late Joe-C then chimes in, “But I say it’s mandatory.”

    Martina McBride, Young MC, C+C Music Factory, Vanilla Ice, Milli Vanilli, The Commodores, Morris Day & The Time, Flo Rida, Bret Michaels .

    These are a few who are white Supremacists/adjacent and who worship Mammon.

      Milli Vanilli and Morris Day have said they don’t know what the fuck Trump is taking about and they’re not playing for him.

        Maybe they did and retought it for reasons. And maybe the festival organizers are lying. Hard to say.

          They said, so not really hard. Young MC has quit the show for instance, was scheduled to perform but told them to get fucked instead.

      There are many people in that line-up I did not expect to be white supremacists. Wasn’t Morris Day friends with Prince and Arsenio?

          Except for Flo Rida, Bret Michaels, and Vanilla Ice (known Trumpers), your list of “white supremacists” is complete horseshit.

          Almost all of the names you listed have dropped out now, claiming that they did not know when they signed that it was for Trump’s concert.

          Also, it is laughable to even suggest that the Commodores, Young MC, or Morris Day and The Time are “white supremacists” in any way. These three acts all have a certain special something in common. Can you guess what that is?

              Kanye West is representative solely of Kanye West, and that’s only on his better days.

              So if you have ANY evidence, no matter how sketchy the link, of these non-Trump-linked specific acts that you named and/or their individual members’ participation in and/or adjacency to “white supremacy” aside from their already cancelled appearance at Trump’s concert, I invite you to bring it forward, because it is literally fictitious.

              Your assertion is ludicrous to the point of being actively offensive. Naming proudly Black people and acts who have already disavowed any intention of supporting Trump, not to mention “white supremacy,” is a slap to them and to their good names. It’s a truly shitty thing to say.

    My ex wife’s mom was a kid rock megafan. She had kid rock tshirts in heavy rotation, had kid rock bumper stickers on her car, and went to concerts as often as possible. She even had limited edition, rhinestone encrusted kid rock shoes. She was one of the dumbest people I’ve ever encountered and a real piece of shit person.

    Several years after divorcing my wife she still texts me asking for money (she’s a dirtbag gambling addict) despite fact I’ve ghosted her. I will never block her, because getting those texts is a sweet reminder that I’ve escaped my shitty ex’s shitty family. Fuck you Linda, you hateful garbagemonster

      I used to be a huge Kid Rock fan.
      But in my defense, I knew nothing about him, I was 10 years old, I’m German, and I understood none of the lyrics.
      (My biggest dream was one day being able to move to the US. Yeah, that changed, too.)

        Devil Without a Cause was one of my favorite albums when I was in 8th grade. I made my mom listen to it in the car and I still feel kinda bad about it.

        Yeah, I liked him when he came out, but I was literally 12. In my 20’s I used to half ironically bust out Bawitaba when I was hanging with the boys as a throwback, and we used to half jokingly have it be our anthem. Then 2016 came and he started fondling Trump’s balls daily. We haven’t played it since.

          I mean he said it in the song “Now get in the pit and try to love someone” - you can’t get much deeper in the pit than Trump.

        This is so tough. My partner’s mother is a vicious manipulator and abuser, still tries to put her hands on her grown children. I love him so much and want to do my best to support him but I can’t have a relationship with her. She’s not permitted at our house because every time we’ve tried, she starts a toddler tantrum over whatever comes to mind and gets violent.

        I worry it weighs heavily on him and I wish I could stomach more interaction with her, I imagine it would make his life easier in some ways. But I’ve hit my max when it comes to abusive people. I’m a domestic abuse survivor and I simply don’t have any more space for folks who behave that way.

          I worry it weighs heavily on him

          I’m on the other side of that equation, and while my father being a racist POS weighs a bit on me, inviting him over and dealing with that bullshit fallout would be 50x worse.

          ya’ doin’ fine
