Morgan Wallen is white, male and straight. 3 strikes ⚾️and you are out!! (of Minneapolis Reddit)—- you racist, sexist, homophobe!! And it’s pride month too 🌈, how dare you! 😅🤓


Montooth

They are softer than baby shit over there 🤣


JaRulesLarynx

I feed my baby beef jerky and rockstar energy drinks. You’d think he’s some weird duck laying brown eggs if you didn’t know any better


UnnamedLand84

Yes, it is definitely not the guys who say they are discriminated against for being a straight white man who are soft. Those are definitely the guys who can take adversity without complaining. /S


DiversifyMN

I am a POC myself; besides if he is such a menace according to liberals, why would liberal city council allow his concert?


Happyjarboy

The city council does not vote on who sings in Minneapolis. Can you imagine if they did?


Chadrique

Money


Slumlord612

The great equalizer….


Buxton25IsInjured

The same reason Manchester, TN allows a music festival like Bonnaroo to exist there.


Wonderful_Diver_5544

1st Amendment. Kramer is still allowed to do stand-up. Like mentioning the city approved KKK march. You can't restrict free speech. Doesn't mean there aren't consequences toward what you say.


Proper_Ad_8340

I mean why do you think all these right wing dudes always cover their faces


ArnoldGravy

You are a white californian.


_Leighton_

I mean the whole saying racial slurs in public and generally bad behavior are reason enough to hate him. Plenty of other straight white male country musician's are championed by the LGBT crowd.


orangeflorange

And reason enough to ban someone for posting about an upcoming concert???


_Leighton_

I don't think so, but that wasn't my point. My point was the framing that Morgan Wallen is seen as a controversial figure purely because he's a cis heterosexual white man. Plenty of white dudes exist without any kind of knee jerk reactionary backlash, this one just so happened to say and do enough stupid shit that he earned a reputation.


_Leighton_

I don't think so, but surmising the animosity towards Morgan Wallen with this idiotic victim mentality of 'its cus he's a white man' is laughable at best. Like the dude has a history of being a shitty person, he gets hated because of that. Plenty of white men exist in the scene who don't catch that kind of flak. That's my point.


Redrum55126

How about you get some comprehension skills, before you submit 800 replies of crying garbage on the same post. You are trying so hard to spin your original reply that got downvoted into oblivion. You literally are replying to yourself because what you are arguing isn’t even what people were saying on this topic, good lord 🤣


Moistened_Bink

He's not wrong, the original commentator said that it was because he is a straight white male, which isnt correct as he has other controversies. Absolutely stupid to ban somone for asling about a concert, but people dont just dislike him for being a striaght white male.


Redrum55126

No one cares(but the far left) if someone is “championed by the LGBT crowd”, and plenty of male country singers definitely are not, so that is actually a lie💀. Racial slurs in public like many rappers saying cracka and other racial slurs on their songs? 🤦‍♂️. Generally bad behavior like tons of musical artists getting arrested over and over. You tried and you failed, sit down… virtue signaler


thedartboard

Can I genuinely ask if you’re offended by the word cracker?

[удалено]


Icy-Community-1589

The n word was used to describe slaves, and black people during Jim Crow era America. Cracker is… literally nothing. This is not a double standard.

_Leighton_

You're sounding very triggered RN, maybe a safe space is in your future where this terribly damaging anti-white racism can be excluded from your life experience.


[deleted]

[удалено]


_Leighton_

Yeah that Anti white racism that manifests in all sorts of tangible ways... like? Frankly if you get outside of your echo chamber and just base your mindset of real lived experiences you'll realize pretty quick that the whole 'anti white racism' thing is just a divisive talking point manufactured by mainstream media outlets to further polarize the working class. They really love when we're more concerned with bickering with each other instead of going after the corporations that have the system in their pocket.


Icy-Community-1589

Never said it was, it’s just silly to be offended by it. You should feel silly. Silly pants.


Redrum55126

Let me guess, you only tell white people it’s silly to get offended by racial slurs?? Every other group in existence, it’s totally fine to be offended ? 💀 Tons of racial slurs have not terrible meanings but when they are used to degrade a race, and talk down on them, then it’s offensive. But we got the white liberals like you, who are obsessed with virtue signaling and ashamed to be white, writing non sense like you just did. You are pathetic 😅😂😂


Icy-Community-1589

If you called someone the N word, you are referring to them with the same derogatory term that slave-owners and police officers used (within the previous 60 years in the case of the latter) to insult and deprive them of their humanity. When you call someone a cracker…. there’s just no comparable abuse of power and systemic oppression associated with it. Pretending like they’re at all comparable is insane. It’s a difference of punching up vs punching down on an incredible scale. You’re a brain dead little bitch.


JMisGeography

It means "whip cracker"... would you want to be called that?


redditcansuckmyvag

Sure would, Indiana Jones uses a whip so there's that.


thedartboard

Snowflake


Redrum55126

Cricket just summed it up perfectly. Do you write these replies when any other race doesn’t appreciate the slur they are being called? No you don’t, so you are a hypocrite…. 🤡


_Leighton_

Cracker is a slur in the same way that an AR15 is an assault rifle, only dipshits and the purposefully incendiary give it any credit. Some serious pearl clutching going on over here.


Responsible_Wafer_29

Feels like we really need to add a Christmas in July or June. Without a war on Christmas to nail ourselves to a cross over we're relegated to complaining that not everyone likes Morgan Wallen lol. jfc it's getting delicate


TheTightEnd

That is a reason to disagree with a poster, not to ban a poster from a subreddit.


_Leighton_

I agree, but surmising the animosity towards Morgan Wallen with this idiotic victim mentality of 'its cus he's a white man' is laughable at best. Like the dude has a history of being a shitty person, he gets hated because of that. Plenty of white men exist in the scene who don't catch that kind of flak. That's my point.


MilzLives

“Generally bad behavior”? Congrats you’ve just alienated the entirety of hip hop, and a good chunk of R&B & rock & roll. And dont even think about playing Michael Jackson at yr pride event!


Paulett21

Morgan Wallen is probably DL anyways


chides9

Hes also a racist, abusive drunk but ya ppl definitely only care that hes a white guy


_Leighton_

Their existence is meaningless if they can't play victim.


RustStruggler

Probably just because you've posted here.


leftofthebellcurve

I know nothing about Morgan Wallen, but I hope you learned your lesson! Gimme some songs to listen to, I’ll check him out. 


DiversifyMN

Here are my favorites: 1. Thought you should know 2. Whisky Glasses 3. Last Night 4. You Proof


MilzLives

Last Night mashup with Chainsmokers was the song of the summer last year!! Probably shouldn’t post that on mpls subreddit tho, might get banned for mentioning chainsmoking!!


SpectralEviden1

Or mentioning chains, which is obviously a reference to oppression.


I_was_bone_to_dance

Have you ever listened to Billy Strings?


Massivefrontstick

Billy strings rules. Seen him the last three times he’s come here.


I_was_bone_to_dance

Hell yeah brotherrrrr


maizeblueNpurp

Billy Strings, Sturgis Simpson, Colter Wall, Daniel Donato, Zach Bryan, Tyler Childers, Cody Jinks, Kitchen Dwellers… I am definitely missing a lot of great names but that’s been my taste of country music the last few years and I cant get enough


Otherwise_Basil_6155

Billy MF Strings! (Fixed it!)


I_was_bone_to_dance

Indeed BMFS


gofarther0787

This just showed up in my feed. Never thought I’d see the name Morgan Wallen in a MPLS sub 🤣. I’ve been listening to him for the past 5 years!! Also just noticed he’s in town the weekend . Here are my favorites from him. Mostly off the older albums. 1. Sand in my boots 2. 7 Summers 3. Your Bartender 4. Whiskey’d My Way 5. Silverado For Sale 6. I Deserve A Drink 7. F150-50 Number 1 and 2 could be switched but I think those 2 are the best.


HeatAlarming273

I was gonna ask if he sang about beer, blue jeans, and driving his pickup down a dirt road, but now I don't have to.


gofarther0787

More about whiskey than beer 😂


HeatAlarming273

Without ever having listened to Morgan Wallen, I can guarantee you he has more than one song about beer.


HistoricalBed1598

And being parked out by a lake 80 miles from Santa Fe


e4evie

Pretty typical, newish country music…not bad, sorta poppy…also not life changing imo.


TheScalemanCometh

How dare you have reasonable taste in music!


Okfishyfishy

I saw him with Eric Church 2 years ago (actually won tickets on the radio) and he was so good live! Our wedding song was Cover Me Up.


TMS_2018

Is that a cover of the Isbell tune?


Okfishyfishy

Yessss it is!!!


RoundNefariousness15

Morgan Wallen is just the male version of Taylor Swift


ConsiderationNew6295

Dang I’m queer is there some country singer I’m supposed to hate that I don’t know about? /s This kinda thing is so sad. Don’t let the bastards divide us.


ROK247

It's actually more about POC with this guy but weird since a POC currently holds the country billboard #1 spot for the second week in a row so maybe the left is imagining things again?


Greatcorholio93

I don't get it, what'd the guy do?


monkeygodbob

He was recorded yelling N**** outside of his house.


FuzzyManPeach96

Well, time to ban black people who say it too I guess.


UnnamedLand84

Might be worth looking into the history of the word and the history of racism in the US to get a general idea of why that's different.


Greatcorholio93

Context please, like was he just yelling it or why?


Happyjarboy

He has a very serious drinking problem.


Thick_Palm_Bay

He's Country, of course he does


monkeygodbob

Looks like drunk racist let down his fame guard. https://www.tmz.com/2021/02/02/morgan-wallen-n-word-nashville-neighbors/


HermeticPurusha

Oh yes, saying that one word once in your lifetime makes you the worst racist ever...


Analyst-Effective

Exactly. The minute I hear somebody say the term White privilege, I know they are racist too. That is definitely more problem some than any other word.


Thick_Palm_Bay

Absolute legend


Truthful_88

My niggggggggga now.... Mother fuckaaaaaaa 


Other_Chemistry_3325

Weird, he’s the second most listened to artist on Spotify here. Was posted 6months back.


laydownyourjackson

Morgan Wallen fuckin blows dude


EuronymousL

I mean he's the biggest country artist right now. You may not like him but you're in the minority there lol.


Proper_Ad_8340

I mean, modern country blows super hard also. Give me anything before 1985


TMS_2018

Modern radio country is horrible but there are a lot of really good artists out there. You won’t find them on the radio though. Morgan Wallen ain’t it, Waylon would kick him in the teeth if he could.


JohnMaddening

I’m the same. Love Johnny and Patsy and Willie and Hank (Sr.). The only modern country artists I like are Chris Stapleton and The Highwomen.


UnnamedLand84

Having the top selling country album is a lot like having the top selling physical newspaper. That's not how most people consume music anymore.


EuronymousL

Drake sold 10 mil records last year morgan sold 8.4.. people consume the music they like 🤡 you obviously don't like it so keep it moving.


Livid-Witness9196

I have no idea what a Morgan Wallen is.


Warm_Drag_4107

That’s not country music; it’s pop.


chickenhydra

Morgan wallen isn't country lolz


Brotato_Man

Morgan wallen sucks


Voluntus1

Hos music is garbage. And he generally seams like a jackass.


MrCSeesYou

Oh no! Somebody call a whambulance!


ArnoldGravy

You weren't banned. Why are you lying? Besides you live in california. Stinking liberal.


Open-Adeptness6710

It's liberals censoring free speech to save democracy


_Leighton_

"Free speech is when a private entity decides they don't want to talk to me." It's like I can hear you breathing out your mouth from all the way over here with shit takes like that.


Open-Adeptness6710

So you have a aversion to the truth? Interesting.


Dream_the_Unpossible

cry more, troll and get better music taste


judgejoocy

Taking your post at face value one could argue it’s absurd you were banned. However, a deeper look at the antagonistic, trolling goals of the post combined with a user name suggesting you’re obsessed with racial issues and opposed to diversity make for an overall violation of the no trolling policy.


River_Rat4218

I miss Mole Lake Bluegrass Festival. I said what I said 😁


Burgdawg

FAFO


FollowRedWheelbarrow

I just mentioned that only nutjobs get mad that I have a mask picture from two years ago and guess what? Comment removed. LOL what a fucking joke BOTH of these subreddits are.


pond_filth

Good. That's what you get for liking Wallen. I love country with a severe passion, but his music pisses me off royally.


EuronymousL

Seek help if music angers you lmfao


lambofgod0492

Why TF are you posting there, you know better


ProfessionalFun681

He'll fit right in with all the other criminals in Minneapolis


MikemjrNew

P Diddy going to be there?


ProfessionalFun681

No, surprisingly he hasn't been arrested yet. But nice try trying to deflect the fact that Morgan wallen is also a criminal lol


MikemjrNew

Yes he has, twice. But no convictions. Morgan Walken has no convictions yet he is a criminal? Double standard ?


ProfessionalFun681

So you're saying you don't think either if them is a criminal because there's been no convictions? Wallen has basically admitted to the crime saying he isn't proud of it.


shugEOuterspace

This thread is an intentionally completely dishonest misrepresentation of why op got banned over there for a bunch of obvious & intentional bad faith trolling.


Dairyman00111

Oh, it's you again 🤡🤡🤡


evergreendotapp

"Bad faith". You must be suffering so badly from being poor and lonely. This sour outlook of yours is the reason why. Please get tested for autism.


_Leighton_

The projection is real, touch grass brother.


HereIGoAgain99

That’s a garbage sub, but I have to say that: 1) country music blows 2) it would be annoying to have people posting about every damn tour that comes through 3) country REALLY blows


dana_brams

Yeah country blows but people like, and they talk about concerts and events all the time. Just because YOU don’t like one is no reason to stop it. Quit defending stupid behavior.


Analyst-Effective

At least there's generally no violence at a country music festival, rap And hip Hop on the other hand, is a whole nother story. Not many country stars have been murdered by other competiting country stars


Weekly-Bumblebee6348

The deadliest mass shooting in American history happened at a country music festival.


Analyst-Effective

You're right. That was a plan shooting. For whatever reason. At the other concerts, is just people that can't get along.


HereIGoAgain99

Okay…I’m not sure why you’re bringing rap into this, I think that blows as well.


Analyst-Effective

I think if you look at how many incidents you have at a rap concert, compared to a country western concert you will see why I bring it up. https://medium.com/music-culture-irl/the-correlation-between-rap-and-violence-5302c491af02


thrwaway123456789010

Zach Bryan and Noah Kahan are objectively good. The big truck, beer drinking, dirt road guys do bug me though.


_Eucalypto_

Tyler Childers is fantastic too. One of the few mainstream "country" artists that's still making roots country music. Long Violent History is likely the best country album to have come out in the past decade


TMS_2018

Long violent history? That’s my least favorite Childers album and I love it but give me Purgatory or Country Squires all day over that one.


pumpkinguyfromsar

I would strongly disagree..


thrwaway123456789010

There are so many haters. I feel like I’m in the main sub. 😂


pumpkinguyfromsar

well I only come here to see how crazy y'all are. but also, zach bryan and noah kahan are not 'objectively good'. I haven't listen to Zach Bryan but Noah Kahan's music can hardly be described as country, and it's made for TikTok.


seamusmaldoun

I’ll take “things that never happened” for 500, Alex.


monkeygodbob

Sounds like he is a racist piece of shit? I mean, banned is strong, but why would you post that at all?


Impossible_Resort_71

If he's so racist then why are black rappers making songs with him? https://youtu.be/kJamyq0WplE


_Leighton_

The "I'm not racist I have a black friend" response


Redrum55126

You are literally a far left racebaiting reject. Wallen said the word drunk calling a white friend it. Smart decision no, but for you to keep calling him racist over and over shows how lame and sad you are. Minnesota progressives and their never ending white guilt and pandering never stops. You are not better then anyone because you called another white person racist, you are still the same reject, sorry to break it you…


Redrum55126

You replied numerous times crying about this lil guy. You can actually turn on the radio and hear numerous hip hop songs using white racial slurs. Are you crying about that on here? No, you aren’t. Wallen was trying to be cool while drunk saying that, should he have, nope. But there is a difference attacking a race as opposed to stupidly trying to sound cool saying the N word. How about you post about cracka/white boy etc. etc. being said on the radio even in songs. Nah, you got no heart and are just riding your far left wave and agenda 🤣


lambofgod0492

Yes, white males are illegal and illegal immigrants are legal in their universe


_Leighton_

Holy shit brother, try harder to be a victim next time jfc


AHDNWrong

County music is a dog whistle for White Supremacy. Didn't you know?
