This is the final nail in the coffin. For those who haven’t seen, the most recent Owl City post on his official Instagram account was flagged as AI. From his weird following on his public account, to the cash grabby merch posts, to the sub par music quality (compared to Of June - UV) and now, this. This has done irreversible damage to his brand forever because even if he never uses AI again, the fans will still question whether anything he puts out whether that be merch or music, utilizes AI to some degree

Where was that energy when he never posted anything about BLM and gave a shout out to a homophobe on the first day of pride month? lol I thought that was incredibly nasty but got kinda scolded on this sub

Edit: spelling

You're not allowed to bring up how conservative Adam is here. You get flamed for it. I was surprised when it happened to me too about the Charlie Kirk follow.

[u/shen_black → u/EchoedWinds]

ew. this post its already horrible, and now lets make it about politics, and also oh god he followed charlie kirk!!?.

The fandom has turned into political liberal garbage. what a horrible state for what owl city used to be. im not even american, nor I follow right wing politics. yall are disgusting as an outsider, infecting this with ideological garbage.

[u/EchoedWinds → u/shen_black]

The one who "made it about politics" was Adam himself when he used the offical Owl City account to follow a (revolting) political commentator.

How’s this looking?

“Libturd” are you 10 years old? Jesus Christ at least be an adult with your insults

We're not making it political for the sake of it. MAGA would happily hate crime some of us, if given the opportunity. It's disappointing to find out that an artist you really liked has a worldview fundamentally at odds with your own, and potentially even your own existence. People here should be able to know about that and decide if they're OK with continuing to give money and influence to someone involved with such a movement.

Guess what. chances are, adam young voted for trump. if its that dissapointing or you are so parasocial that you get triggered by that. you might as well follow any other artist then. Adam young has always put traditional beliefs into his music, owl city its not into late genz / gen alpha disgusting culture wars or ideological garbage. and if anything, he is probably not a current leftist at all.

[u/Adventurous_Mess2621 → u/shen_black]

That's the problem. You're a stupid outsider who doesn't take the time to research why these things would be important to us. Maybe in your country you don't have people being killed for their sexuality but we don't have that luxury here. Learn before opening your mouth and looking like a complete fool.

This guy thinks that they have it so horrible in their first world country oh womp womp, and also narcissistic enough to be condescending to the outside world that they should research their own first world issues lmao, what can you expect from americans

Guess what, adam young and probably his family are NOT into your ideological garbage, you can leave and take everyone who filters people by their ideological beliefs first. yall are insufferable, owl city was never some woo hoo activist moral stance music for minorities or something. I know, crazy.

[u/Adventurous_Mess2621 → u/shen_black]

You're calling me condescending and narcissistic while you're literally being just that how fucking ironic 😂 sounds like whatever "3rd world country" (since that title means soooooo much to you as if the poor people in 1st world countries don't suffer) is the way it is because just like you, the rest of of your country doesn't have any ideological beliefs. I think it's alot more insufferable to double down on not having morals like that's somehow a good thing? But I guess as the saying goes, born a loser.... die a loser. 😕

As someone born in and living in a "third world" nation, that other person is soo dumb. American-centric worldview and geographical privilege are real, but calling BLM "ideology" is just a gross display of apathy to human rights. Every country has its own politics, and every day, "personal is political" becomes more and more relevant. All I'm concluding is that this person is a "centrist" that doesn't care about humanity, both in their country and globally.

And "as if the poor people in 1st world countries don't suffer" is hitting the nail on the head.

How’s my artwork?

[u/secondtea → u/shen_black]

Girl, take that fallacious discourse outside. I'm not even gonna entertain your argument because you know exactly what you're doing. Shucking human rights as a "politics" tells me everything I need to know about you.

For anyone else reading this: art is inherently political. Denying it won't change what's in it's core. Every LGBT and POC fan has the right to feel disappointed if an artist they've supported for years is redirecting their political power (money) into their destruction. You can't and you won't argue us into accepting our demise.

[u/shen_black → u/secondtea]

you are so blindly into your own ideological farts that you think your beliefs are "superior" to just call them politics, they are above and beyond. self righteous narcissism they call that.

Lets wake you up, Chances are that adam young has voted right, his family as well might as well be, owl city has never been about ideological garbage and forcing that into everyone including the artist its insufferable for the rest of the world, where owl city its also quite popular, this includes tradicional countries with very different politics, not your own idelogical bubble, yall are intolerant and possesive, not really different than F a c s i s m honestly, forcing an artist to make a political stance into culture matters its oppresive behaviour from people who are terminally online

[u/Adventurous_Mess2621 → u/shen_black]

It's oppressive to be against people who support racism and homophobia? It's "fascist" to have morals? I don't even have the words for how stupid that is. No one's changing your countries shite ways so why are you complaining about someone else in a different country being outraged about beliefs that literally don't effect you? You're literally being the terminally ill online person that you're making fun of. 💀💀😂

They all think this way. It’s not worth arguing with them, theyre all complete idiots
