    At the end of the day they’re people too though. And this is music, not war. There’s a pretty big gray area for “participating in capitalism does not equal approval of capitalism.”

      That only goes for the working class - the people who are forced to participate in capitalism. Not for filthy rich musicians.

      And this is music, not war.

      There is no aspect of our enforced existence under capitalism that is free from it’s insidious influence - and that includes music.
