    how seriously I approach ‘art’ is my prerogative. If one is not comfortable with criticism, they should keep their thoughts to themselves.

    how do you reconcile a position which claims to care about folks without enough to eat, with the line complaining about welfare (food assistance)?

    It isn’t even critical of the capital-owning class or the oppressive heirarchy which protects the institution of private capital, just an ephemeral ‘rich man up north’ (this is a reactionary dogwhistle, if you’re not familiar with the US)

    I think you’re not taking art (and I use this term loosely here) seriously enough.

    everything is political, especially to those not in the priveledged position to pretend aloof detachment holds any value whatsoever.

    the song is trash, at every level.

      Totally not, you are broking logic here. If you cannot control your hysteria, it strange that you expect others to not answer you.

      wrong position, but remains popular narrative among working people. If people already struggle with poverty, it is good start to explain reasons of it.

      furthermore, it isn’t even critical of the capital-owning class or the system which protects the institution of private capital, just an ephemeral ‘rich man up north’ (this is a reactionary dogwhistle, if you’re not familiar with the US)

      not familiar with this “rich man up north” thing, to me it sounds like “rich” in general. Is this real marker of far right anarcho capitalism adepts in usa?

      If there is real use of some words or hidden signs of far right usa slang, just share it here and educate others politely, I’m sure people here including me would like to be aware of such things. Any opportunity should be used to educate people.
