you know what's worse?
the conservatives everywhere else
Lowkey no because they dont detract from the movement even if they oppose it
Twitter leftists almost present a grift
Crazy how fake woke Kendrick is, thought he was for the ppl but he really for the capitalist pigs
i mean he kinda let his label mates starve for 5 years.
all the talk about being this hip hop messiah must have gotten to him

His whole album is about choosing himself over being the one to give himself up for the culture
Pardon me nigga but are u even black⁉️
no, i just have common sense
that ad was giving weird energy, something felt off about it
does ray dialo have any insight or do people just ride his bandwagon cause he's a billionaire?
This is like when Frank Ocean stans found out he was not in fact the homoerotic reincarnation of Fred Hampton
Yeah it’s interesting to see how some people project their beliefs onto these artists. When has kendrick been hard enough on capitalism for this to be hypocritical or whatever
He associated himself with revolutionary black activists like Mandela, Fred Hampton, MLK, Malcolm X and 2pac all of whom were anti-capitalist
He was never explicit about his political beliefs or anything tho tbf, his own politics were always kinda talked about deeply
fr this thread making me realize how many iconic lines mr morale has
how many?
only one i seen itt is "not your savior"

Fair enough
But even pac wasn’t above that type of s*** and probably wouldn’t fit the modern definition of anti capitalist to the more hardcore people who would take issue with this
The references to the others I never took that serious, rappers do it all the time and I took it as ego savior complex and just wanting to make a difference on where he grew up and the black community, and some of that might be associated with anti capitalism but I just don’t know if it was enough where it’s fair to call him on doing an ad

2pac was definitely anti-capitalist, he wasn't above flexing his wealth, but he was member of the young communist league, his mother a black panther and his aunt a political refugee in Cuba
that banned mtv interview says a lot
But yeah Kendrick's references to those guys were also mostly aesthetic, he never really showed a deep understanding of who they were tbh, which is a problem in and of itself. He's not a hypocrite in the same way Noname would be if she did this because it directly goes against her explicitly stated politics, but it does look funny still when Kendrick does it, it fits his new whole I choose me thing but it's funny comparing it to old Kendrick tho
ktt lefties worse
KTT lefties actually read theory and do stuff irl so by default no

I miss the old days when talking politics at the dinner table was considered impolite

Having a twitter account is not the same thing as participating in twitter culture, idiot.
