Dude’s being really defensive even though he’s criticized artists in the past for being right wing. It’s times like this I’m reminded that he’s been on multiple v*ush streams too.

It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

Isn't the only information about this the picture itself, or did Peggy say something about it? Because if it's just the picture, agree with melonboy that commentary on this is stupid. Otherwise we gotta dunk on our favorite CEO Rachel Jake for going to Shen Yun, etc.
We’re always “if you sit at a table with 10 nazis, there’s 11 nazis at that table” until it’s someone who makes music we like huh
I just think jpegmafia has earned enough cred to attempt an explanation. I'm not saying he just gets a pass because I like his music. He shit on Kanye in his music recently, so while this is very wtf to me, I'd still like to hear the explanation before writing off his stuff forever because of one photograph. If the explanation is "oh, I know Kanye is a Nazi, I just think his music is cool" then you won't see me defending anyone.
I don’t really know what more explanation there could be. He makes music, but probably not a lot of money, he would like to make more money and this seems like the most direct way to get it.
