    Yeah I mean I’m about as indifferent to using him in the meme as I am with the Drake meme - and I blame Drake (in part) for all the deaths at Astroworld. The meme is separate to the man.

    Except Hide The Pain Harold, he’s a dude and deserves love for being in and embracing his meme.

      Can you elaborate on why you blame Drake for the Astroworld crush?

      I just read the whole Wikipedia article about the incident. There is definitely a lot of blame to go around based on that article, but I doesnt have much about Drake’s role in it. It seems like he was only on stage for one song, and wouldn’t have been in any position to stop the show.

      I’m not defending Drake, I’m just curious about what context I’m missing.

        He was on stage when it happened, not quite pushing for fans to riot as much as Travis but still carrying on blind while people died. He definitely had some ability to do something, being on stage.

        He’s nowhere near as guilty as Travis, but I do hold him at least partly responsible. Probably because I don’t really like him, and getting on stage with Travis didn’t endear me any more.

        Drake the music artist. Commonly used in the template with somebody saying no to one thing but yes to another to put it simply.
