    Fuck anyone who dances for Trump, including Afroman. I’m glad he won, it was the only correct outcome, but he can fuck off.

                He’s officially a rapist, in court and on record, but he denies it anyway. Reality has little meaning to someone who has always been able to act like that.

          Also, he was called out on it and explicitly denied the opportunity to condemn Trump. He’s either a MAGAt or at least loves their support. Fuck him.

    for everyone in this thread defending Afroman, saying that one picture with Trump was just a photo-op during his presidential run and doesn’t reflect his values, I’d urge you to read this article about a song he really wanted to sing at Trump rallies.

    Afroman Explains His New Song: Hunter Got High

    I think the takeaway here is that while he may not be a full blown facist, he’s willing to align with them to make a buck, which is kinda the main issue with the US gov right now.

      Oh come on. There’s literally a joke quote in the article that he’ll rev share the song if Hunter Biden wanted to sue Afroman for defamation.

      The insinuation that Afroman is even partially a fascist who wants to control other people’s behavior is ridiculous. Stop fucking up a good thing with this nonsense.

        as I said, while he may not be a facist, he’s okay with accepting their money, which is also bad.

        it’s also telling that he said he’s willing to “poke fun at both sides” but has, to my knowledge, yet to release anything poking fun at the alt right.

        complicity isn’t compliance, but it sure is a bad look and a good reason not to support this nonsense.

          https://allhiphop.com/news/afroman-addresses-patriotic-photo-opp-with-donald-trump/

          Speaking to AllHipHop, Afroman clarified, “I’m not supporting him. I just met him. And yes, my campaign is full effect.” He continued, “We were both at the Libertarian National Conference trying to get nominated and get their votes and we saw each other. We shook hands and talked about the Hunter Biden song and witch hunt raids. That was it.”

          just to clarify, the photo alone in the link you sent does not provide sufficient evidence that Afroman has cozied up to Trump or supports Trump. As far as I can tell, so far, no evidence points to him supporting Trump.

          That said, he is a Christian and says transphobic things, and he clearly competes with Trump for some of the same right-wing Libertarian voters, so it’s clear Afroman is at least in some right-wing spaces and supports some right-wing ideas, even if I don’t think you have sufficient evidence to say he’s close to Trump or a Trump supporter.

      All presidents are evil. Bill Clinton embargoed Iraq to shift the news cycle off of his blowjob, and it killed a million children who had dependence on imported medical supplies.

      Trump isn’t special. Just one more cunt.

    This thread is my daily reminder that Lemmy is an online echo chamber that’s completely out of touch

      No. It’s against flag code, but there is no real law or enforcement of the flag code. If you do break it, I will immediately assume you are not a patriot and instead you are a nationalist because you didn’t take the ~5 minutes to look up the flag code.
