If the art makes them upset, it’s telling the truth.
It’s funny to me that anyone is reporting this. It’s obviously your comm lol Eff’em.
The Emoji Movie made people upset. Was it telling the truth to power?
The what now?
The emoji movie. The one that sucks. Upsetting people isn’t proof of being correct. If it was, drag would be the wisest person on all of Lemmy.
… you’re referring to the emoji movie as art? Your ability to take Tele’s sentence and completely butcher the concept and wording is more art than that movie could ever dream of being.
In regards to the reports, I started this community up for myself to keep track of the real things happening that hopefully avoids the distractions of what trump or his fellow baddies say. I’m using what little voice I have to share a political song that is getting censored. You can call me a power tripping bastard and I’ll say yeah, probably. I’ve seen your complaints.
Lol people are reporting this?
Sorry the politically motivated censorship of a political song isn’t politics enough.
I just meant this to be a note to my regular users, I never expected it to go to the front page. It sounds way more dramatic than I intended, lol.
Honestly, hip hop probably only exists because of politics.
Youtube link to help get it to trending - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sn9EKC9nqU4&rco=1 (if youtube allows it, probably not)
Not my kind of music, but it’s an important message.
Wow, this song goes hard. I love it. Can’t find it on Tidal, so definitely something is up. Tidal rarely is missing songs.
So it is, thanks! I just assumed it wasn’t when I went to the artist and just saw his 2023 album.
It is definitely on Tidal. I can shoot the link if you want it.
I was never really a fan but Macklemore is on it these days. Power to the people.
How’s it being censored?
Not cynical, I believe that. But I’m genuinely curious about specifics. Is it, like, algorithmically deprioritized?
You have to sign in to see it and it’s really hard to find on youtube even if you’re signed in. I had a hard time finding an open version of it. It’s not outright banned, just really hard to access.
YouTube recommended it to me in my sidebar a few days ago. I imagine the curse word in the title has more to do with the algorithmic suppression than the actual content.
Is it, like, algorithmically deprioritized?
Yes, that’s modern censorship. The owners of social media get to decide how viral a piece of content will be.
This is why when you make a new X account it pushes right-wing conspiracy nonsense. Or why Palestinian topics don’t gain traction.
The manipulation of social media to control what you see and hear is invisible. Some people, topics and keywords can be deprioritized and others boosted and nobody can know the extent except the people that own the social media companies.
The Social Dilemma and The Great Hack go into the nuts and bolts of how people are profiled so that content can be targeted at them as well as how political outcomes are driven by the manipulation of social media, they’re on Netflix.
He’s just rapping headline news. Not my type of artist, but anyway to send a message is good. Especially if it upsets MAGA.
Wonder what Immortal Technique or Paris is doing these days 🤔
He said a naughty word! Won’t anybody think of the children?
I have been waiting for the rap and punk political songs. Happy to see this, minus the censorship.
Let’s be sure to support the creators who speak up. The song is pretty good, video is chilling. Sharing with the people I normally send music suggestions with
Pretty good video. I fuck with this song’s energy.
Macklemore stepping up to the plate where no fake rappers dared.
Kendrick is fake.
Drake is fake.
Macklemore is the real one.
It’s facing heavy censorship because the title is “fucked up”. Every video to come out in the last decade knows to title it “f*cked up” so it doesn’t get demonetized. But he doesn’t care because people will talk, and it’ll make it more know.
Oh lawd he back. Just when the world needed him most
I watched it for the purpose of resistance.
Thank you for sharing, that’s great.
