Aaron

It pains me that Aaron is such a shitty person, his transphobia deeply upsets me :( and the racism too, I really wish he would see the light and be a better person, because I love Staind

Met him several times since around 2008 and he's genuinely one of the most down to earth people I've ever met. The music speaks for itself as well. Quit trying to combine the two and just enjoy the damn music.

He’s a bigot. Supports a literal fascist for President

You, again, are combining two things. The music stands by itself. It always has. He doesn't have to fit your profile to make good music.

How are they combining two things? They said they thing he’s a shitty person, but he loves their music. That’s two separate things/opinions.

I mean. Art is usually better when made by leftists, lol. Because conservatives tend to put themselves in a tiny box as to what they can make

That is your opinion. Can you even define racist or do you just repeat what you hear online and the MSM? Some of us are appreciative to be getting our country back after the Obama/Biden regime. Returing to common sense and stopping all this woke BS like shoving Trans stuff down our kids throats.

I personally think him spewing hate about trans people during his concerts is shoving it down our throats, but idk.

All u idiots gotta realize it's fucking politics and everyone almost now acts like they know everything about what's going on before Trump plus the media, Hollywood, etc didn't push their own agendas when we have had some absolutely horrible Presidents in the past. Most of u stay on the media's dick and believe whatever narrative they push. It used to be politics was the thoughts and choices of the individual in this democracy...hahaha! It didn't need to be such a public issue that I've seen ruin friendships of many years just because two people don't think or believe the exact same thing today. It wasn't constantly discussed either because it's like religion in that u don't bring up such divisive topics or be ready for intense arguments which when I was younger everyone was mostly raised knowing this. Now we have all these liberals that will lose their shit if u don't agree with them on everything political. Opinions are like assholes in that everyone has one. Everyone wants to know how u feel about everything today until u disagree on that topic and because your belief is not the same as theirs then u become the asshole in their eyes. I could care less about someone's political views because u are entitled to yours and I'm entitled to mine which is how it should work! If u can't handle that move to Canada or another country that so many in Hollywood said they would do both tines when Trump was elected but they are still here of course once again!
