The SBA’s SVOG grants were intended for struggling small artists. But big stars like Post Malone and Chris Brown got $200M in pandemic relief funds.
PPP loans must be one of the largest transfers of wealth over a short period of time in history. So much of our money funneled into the already rich and corporations. And in classic American fashion those “loans” will be forgiven.
Fucking country is a circus.
I mean isn’t Nickelback Candian? But my 10K left of Parent Plus Student loans… Well fuck me evidently…
But dare to forgive student loans or even mortgages? SOCIALISMS!
Dw it will trickle down :^)
But student loan debt is shackled to you for life with little relief. When we fought for it we were told to fuck off by republicans. Cool. So PPP loans for millionaires are a-okay. But not the average citizen; who pays the taxes in the first place btw. Cool. Cool cool cool.
Other stars like Bonnie Raitt and Justin Bieber paid their production crews from their own pockets when the pandemic canceled their concerts, Arko noted.
Fuck me. Never thought I’d ever have even a speck of respect for Bieber, but I guess I do now.
Bieber actually turned into a surprisingly down to earth adult after being a massive douche in his teens. It was around the Comedy Central roast I started to respect him and he’s continued to come across as a genuinely good person since then. Even in candid clips.
I’m not gonna pretend like he’s doing great things and all but I also have a strong suspicion he’s got a reputation reversal PR team that controls every aspect of his social life and that’s why he’s always hanging out with the mega church pastors that wear their swimming trunks down to their ankles in public to show off their pelvic tans and have only positive news clips where he’s praying for Africa and throwing wads of cash into subway station crowds. He’s becoming the new Ellen.
Well shit. It’s always nice when people grow and mature, wish it happened more often! Good for him.
Well we know what post Malone did with some of it. He bought that stupid magic the gathering card for like $2 million.
As a magic fan I’m pretty sour at Posty for this. Loved that he brought more mainstream attention to magic, but not like this. Mr Down To Earth is counting his beans just like the rest of them I guess.
The whole thing is a stain tbh on MTG. Clearly just a way to make money moving sealed product as people hoped to pull it and instantly resell it.
It’s not like me to say sorry.
These were both good but this one is better!
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah. No. No
Our local catholic private school stole $750,000 and then defaulted on it like most PPP loans. Fucking insane.
New reason to hate nickelback just dropped
What the fuck is going on here? Fucking bullshit. These fucking pieces of shit need to rot in jail. Especially Chris Brown for beating up Rihanna smh.
This is fucking gross.
Free money for the rich and the poor get nothing. Sounds about right.
Hey hey how you got those handful of stimulus payouts which were totally responsible for all the problems we now face. People still haven’t gone back to work after they got all that money for free
/s
Looks like a lot of people in this comments want their nickels back.
Well, it wasn’t to make good music
And this is how you remind me.
I hate you so much for getting Nickleback songs stuck in my head.
Are we having fun yet?
No, we’re not.
cool that’s not art
Was it cocaine and hookers?
Thank you! Everyone acting like hundreds of hookers’ and pushers’ livelihoods don’t depend on these guys. It’s just tricke-down economics at work!
I’d actually be fine with Chad Kroeger being paid $200 million to travel around the world, walk up to random people and say “look at this photograph”
