"MY RIGHT" by SCREECHING WEASEL | POP-PUNK | CHICAGO, IL
*If you are upset with a man who wrote a song called "My Right" for exercising that right, you're retarded as all hell, and clearly never listened to the man's music. And if you try to cancel an artist for having an opinion you disagree with, and then try to gather a rage mob to help you cancel said artist for having an opinion you disagree with... I hate to break it to yoo, but YOU are the one behaving as a fascist.
You know what I do when I decide a business no longer reflects my values? I stop spending my money there. It's that simple. Nobody is forcing you to attend a festival organized by someone who has a different opinion than you. How much time and energy are you putting in to making sure that the other businesses and festivals you attend share your viewpoints? Are we perhaps being short-sighted, cyber-bully shitheads who force our opinions on others?
Again, if you are forcing your opinion on others and trying to form a rage mob to "cancel" a business for exercising their own rights and free-will, YOU are not the hero that YOU think you are. Might want to check yourself at the door. Or just don't bother showing up if you can't handle existing in the same space as people who don't share your opinions, there's a word for that, what is it... oh yeah, "bigot."
Maybe go spend your time productively and try to, you know, start your OWN band or throw your OWN festival. Rather than trying to piss and shit all over everyone else's hard work just because grown-ass-adults with actual real world experience don't march lockstep with the skewed belief system you formed in your mother's basement.

Also, If you throw ice at a performer and spit on them, you absolutely deserve to be punched in the fucking face. You're actually fortunate if that's all that happens to you. And if you think a woman should be allowed to behave like a man without facing repercussions as a man, so do you.
The real question should be "Where the fuck was security? And why didn't they do their job when a performer was being spit upon and assaulted with ice cubes during a performance?"
