They weren't racists. They weren't sexual predators. They just said they didn't like the Iraq War and they were literally blacklisted.

They're lucky they weren't around in the 60s since they would have been repeatedly harrassed by law enforcement and arrested like Lenny Bruce.

That's real "cancel culture".

yeah whats fucked is even canadian country stopped playing em and even up here in canada the station i worked at got so many pissed off calls when we started playing the shutup and sing single and the album it was from.

Also shut up and sing (or whatever it was called) was a legit great song.

Brought the wife to one of their concerts about 5-7 years ago. She requested to leave during intermission and said the best part of the concert was the salted pretzel.

Yep, that was disgusting. Which is all the more reason why it's so sad that liberals have embraced the 90s-era conservative tactics of cancel culture and speech repression. You'd think they'd know better.
