And please don’t talk to me like I’ve never stood up for my beliefs when it was unpopular. In the middle of the Gulf War in 2006 I put out a song called “Dear Mr. President” and sang it every night on tour while my country was in a war I didn’t support,
And now I’m standing up for my own people,
Translation: “my country” = America, “my own people” = genocidal Zionists. Great take. I’m sure all the dead women and children in Palestine would be so proud of you.
For real, how does everyone in the media bother to feign such cognitive dissonance all the time? When someone says they’re against the war in Iran, does that mean they want to kill all Americans?
Who falls for this shit? Zionists need to find something better than playing the victim card 24/7.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but wasn’t pinks exact brand that she was edgy and counterculture? And didn’t Eminem get quite a lot of success with Mosh and White America? If so I don’t quite see how courageous she was, standing up against Bush
Public approval for the Vietnam War was at 34% in 1971, when Singing in Viet Nam Talking Blues released.
Public approval for the Iraq War hit a high of of 80% one month after the Dixie Chicks’ comments, so I think it’s a safe assumption that it was in the high 70s when they spoke out.
Had they waited until it was politically convenient to speak out, they probably wouldn’t have had the same level of backlash, but they had more spine than that.

At some stage they really do start to think the world revolves around them.
Double fuckup because she has essentially equated Jews with Zionists and crybabies.

Courageous were Dixie chicks. They were against 90% of their base talking shit about W.
That was truly an incredible moment in history. One of the first times that I noticed cracks in the facade of “conservative values.”
I remember thinking it mostly showed how sexist country fans can be. No one said shit when Johnny Cash was openly against the Vietnam War…
