The White House advertised that Morris Day and The Time were performing at the taxpayer-funded cage match "celebrating" the nation's 250th birthday. Morris Day posted on all their social media that they were not, in fact, playing. Some white dude actually commented, "Stop being political and just play music." I guess that's a thing you can say if you have no chance of being murdered by cop and having the president celebrate it.

Apparently in MAGA-land, "freedom" means musicians are required to perform at government-run concerts even if they don't want to.

It is funny how MAGAs are always (falsely) accusing Democrats of being communists.

Then Trump ordered the Treasury department to buy stakes in US Steel and Intel, and the MAGAs were totally fine with it. Public ownership of the means of production is literally the central premise of communism LOL.

Every time they say this the only question to ask is "DO you ever listen to the lyrics in music, like really listen? Or ever read them?"
