    OP : “I like racist music because of the instrumental in a genre about the message!”

      Well, you’ve got a point there, but the message isn’t all there is. Half of the time I can barely understand what they’re saying. You can’t call bullshit on that.

        With music made by nazis it very much is.

        You stream it: you are paying nazis, you buy it: you are paying nazis, you listen to it after you know it’s nazi propaganda: you are willfully consuming nazi propaganda as entertainment (unless it’s research into hate speech).

        The idea of the music was to signal a specific political alignment with the ideas expressed.

          I don’t feel like I’m supporting them. I listen to the music on spotify, which notoriously doesn’t pay their creators. I’m also not influenced by the propaganda. I’m just there for the energy. Also I’m listening to it low-key. I’m not advertising it. Although I’m realising this post might be contrary to that statement.

            What do you have when a Nazi sits at a table with four good people, and they allow him to stay?

            You have a table with five Nazis.
