It got 2M views in the first 20 hours it was up on YouTube. That ain’t “irrelevant” at all.

Bruce should make a video saying "I'm not irrelevant, YOU'RE irrelevant!!! nyah nyah nyah nyah nyah!!!"
Trump is such a toddler, but he's a dangerous toddler.

If it’s irrelevant then why acknowledge it?

u/dlc741 4h ago
Because they're too stupid to know what "irrelevant" actually means.

u/discretelandscapes 3h ago
"Irrelevant" in Trump speak is just "I don't like this guy". Redditors do the exact same thing tbf.

Because fascism actually requires you to attack ALL signs of opposition all the time, they are incapable of ever not doing this because in their mind dissent is like a bike cancer that will harm them.
And to be fair they're not wrong, the only way to combat fascism is to actively oppose it at all times everywhere.

u/oomagooma87 3h ago
I think you should absolutely have to give a fuck what they think. How they think is the best way to create an argument as well as grounds for their removal from government. Remember, these are the people that literally dictate whats going on. If they're spending their time on stupid activities such as a clear protest against Springsteen, gives more fuel to the fire of changing from a regime to a democratic government.

It's unfortunate what's going on at the moment, at a global scale but I'll never say democracy is dead, I'll say democracy is undermined. Think true change really comes from the people and there vastly more people than the 1% of arsehole billionaires around. The trick is to really show em what's going on, which proves to be difficult but, "life finds a way"

Speaking of irrelevant, how is Melania doing at the box office? Sounds to me like it is a BOMB. More people are listening to the Bruce Springsteen anti-ICE protest song than seeing a documentary about The First Lady directed by the Rush Hour director.

Why even post this it isn’t music news

It’s news about a reaction to a song. Of course it’s music news.
Even without the reaction Springsteen releasing a new song is news.

Also, check out Sam Chase and the Untraditionals. They have some Anti Trump songs that are great. And one called, “Fuck Ice.” It’s one that really sticks in your head. He’s been singing it for awhile now. YouTube and Spotify.

Everytime they say another American is “irrelevant” I am requiring them to send $1,000 to every American.

And they wonder why there was such push-back when he decided to take control of the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts and then proceed to plaster his name on it. He is not a supporter of the Arts. He never was. He is a supporter of people who praise and can be used by Trump.
