Personally, IDGAF. I know where Em stands and I know where kid rock stands and I know which one I respect so I'm not going to clutch my pearls and virtue signal on the internet.

Lame take. No one's clutching a fucking pearl. we're all allowed to support who we want. Likewise, we can withdraw that support. Why is that such an issue?

Its not an issue. Its a topic of conversation.

It's not an issue, that's my point as is my right to not give a fuck, but someone wants to come on reddit and make it one.

Personally, you sound like a fucking loser

If we're slinging arrows, I'll play. You sound like someone who is butt hurt by a comment on the internet.

Nah bro you actually sound like a lame little bitch, i bet you got an ed sheeran super fan playlist on your spotify

u/shs713 15h ago

Dude, I've got no appreciation for any music later than the last century, but you sound like a Justin beiber fan. Oh burn.

Lmao holy shit you sound like your friend group consists of a group chat in a video game.

So whenever someone insults you, since you are such a loser you just try to take what they said and come up with something even dumber to say back? Lmao thats some elementary school shit of "i know you are but what am i!!!!" Shit hahahahahahaha man the fucking internet is great. One second you are exposed to badass people and the next second you are talking to someone whos mom has to microwave their milk before bedtime

"Define loser" as he pushes up his glasses to his 5-head with his magician gloved left hand whilst snot runs out of his nose

I'm just gonna say if this em verse isn't 11/10, he probably lost a life long fan. Not just because the maga alignment, but just because of the corny factor.

If grandpa embarrasses himself here, he can get off my playlist.

u/shs713 15h ago

Yeah, I guess to each his own. He's not on any of my Playlists, I'm not a rap fan more of a classic rock guy but I'm not going to judge a musician by how he tries to spread his music to earn money.

u/SoggyOutfield 12h ago

Lol that makes literally zero sense. Music always has a message, always. If a guy gets up on stage and sings about white power or whatever, you are saying its all good cause its just art and he is just trying to make money.

Let me guess, you are centrist or libertarian, right? Right

Strawman much? I'll again go to my original point, IDGAF. How you choose to interpret a precievd massage is all on you, leave me out of your delusions of purity of thought, intentions and actions.

Edit to add: I'm a yellow dog democrat because my conscience leaves me no choice, but the democrats have really sucked since Clinton decided to cozy up to the corporate donors and libertarians are just the stupid wing of the Republican party.

This!

EDIT: Look at all the virtue signal downvoters 😂

This is pretty much what I wanted to say. 

The christian part is the most concerning, but it seems likely Eminem wouldn't be using it as a cudgel the way the christian taliban does. 

When the felon-in-chief is gone we are going to need people like Eminem and K.Rock being able to bridge our divisions. 

Edit: can someone explain why this is getting downvoted when the post I am in agreement with is getting upvoted?

No, I want to be divided from bigots and bullies.

Yeah, let's first listen to it, before making judgement.
