Last week, we reported on the downfall of Morgan Wallen, the country music superstar who was canceled out by the media and even his label after he uttered the n-word on camera.
Boy, oh, boy, guess who canceled out the media? His fans.
Since Wallen's so-called fall from grace, his fans all gathered into their pickup trucks and headed out to their local Walmart to buy up all his albums. After the news broke regarding Wallen, his album sales skyrocketed up 339% from the week before. Then again, when country stations dumped The (Dixie) Chicks, the same thing happened: their sales went up and they even won several Grammys.
Of course, we also reported on Marilyn Manson's situation regarding him abusing his lovers and all the celebs who have now turned their backs on him, like former mentor and label boss Trent Reznor. He's still played on rock stations everywhere, including those whose sister stations dumped Wallen. I just checked the Billboard 200 album chart and Manson is nowhere to be seen.
Granted, abusing women should never be defended. Neither should some 27-year-old yokel who doesn't wear a mask, frenches female strangers in a pandemic and uses racial slurs while inebriated. If he didn't look like the type who slept through history class in school - IF he had a history class in his school - he'd probably know why it's not cool to use that word, especially in 2021.
The lesson here is that the media will punish somebody. But, in the real world, if We the People have the money, we'll use it to tell them to fuck off and not to tell us what we can or can't buy. It all depends on the crime. Yes, Wallen's fans have seemed to vastly forgive him, but if I were an African American, I'd be pissed.
Thankfully, I feel that most Americans don't think the same way with Drumpf. With his Senate impeachment trial quickly approaching, it sucks that he might not be attending it at all. Not only that, his fellow Repuke senators won't vote him out, either, clearing him for a possible redux in 2024. He's probably hoping by then, he can get back into the White House and not have to worry about getting the boot from Mar-A-Lago. But, he had his day in the sun and he brought nothing but tornadoes and hurricanes to America.
It seems that the travesty Drumpf gave himself and his supporters only hurt them all. Just look at Mike Lindell, the MyPillow guy. Last weekend, he paid ultra-conservative cable network OANN to air a three-hour documentary loaded with false info regarding the 2020 election. Meanwhile, another retailer, JCPenney has announced that they are yanking MyPillow off their shelves, along with Kohl's and Bed, Bath and Beyond. To add more insult to injury, one of Lindell's biggest critics, Parkland shooting survivor David Hogg, just announced that he's starting his own pillow company with a group of investors.
Another wacko, Marjorie Taylor-Greene saw herself stripped of her committee assignments last week because of her ties with QAnon and other far-right groups. However, one sane Republican, Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney was censured by her state's GOP for voting to impeach Drumpf.
The reality is that the people have spoken and money is power. When people give you money, you've won, even if your ideas aren't the best. Walmart's owners are billionaires and they treat their workers like shit. Yet, people shop there for their low prices. Chick-fil-A alienated their LGBTQ+ customers for giving to anti-gay groups years ago. Yet, people go crazy over their burned-out shit. It goes on. All we can do is not go there if your beliefs don't match theirs.
The reality is that right-wing BS in America is dying. In thirty years, only one Republican won the popular vote for president and it was BusHitler's second term. He won his first term because of the snafu in Florida and the fact that Al Gore chose an anti-First Amendment assclown, Joe Lieberman to run with him. Drumpf won because of the screwjob the DNC did to Bernie Sanders. Conservatives who have a (D) after their names are wolves in sheep's clothing. And guess what happens when they run for the highest office? CHAOS!
As long as Biden channels FDR, God bless him. I hope by the time he's up with his 1st term. America will be back in order. But, sadly, some people won't change. And in the case of Lindell and others, it will cost them money.
There's not enough ton foil in this world to make a hat good enough for the world's losers.
