Per Wikipedia:
"On March 10, 2003, during a concert at the Shepherd's Bush Empire in London, Dixie Chicks lead singer Natalie Maines told the audience, “Just so you know, we’re on the good side with y’all. We do not want this war, this violence, and we’re ashamed that the President of the United States is from Texas”. The comment, made nine days before the U.S. invasion of Iraq, expressed the band’s opposition to the impending war and their embarrassment that President George W. Bush was from their home state of Texas."
So Americans were pissed at the Chicks for speaking down on Baby Bush. Now, twenty two years later after finding out how evil he really was it seems the Chicks were correct in their disapproval. I think folks need to reevaluate their disdain for the Chicks. They were speaking truth to power and the media made a big deal out of it in order to protect Bush.
The things you ponder when you have nothing better to do.
Nah, fuck them they were disparaging the United States of America more than that fucking retard Bush.
They changed their name to "Chicks" because Dixie is associated with slavery and racism and favored George Floyd and the BLM movement... plus they hate Trump. Woke middle aged democrat women, the biggest culprits trashing society. They can fuck off.
Dixie is only associated with slavery in the minds of the ignorant who don't know that the northern states used to have slaves too. You can check the old census records, if you don't believe me.
BLM was formed by a Jewish domestic terrorist pardoned by Bill Clinton, George Floyd was a convicted felon and overdosed on fentynal, the first slave owner was black, the majority of slave owners were Jewish and every single ship that brought them here was Jewish owned. The Confederacy was fighting more to keep state rights than slavery.
The Dixie Chicks have very ignorant minds.
No Dixie? Oh, that's not right.
Bugger off.
They have a severe case of TDS.
Their still commies.
You probably meant to say "They're" still Commies.
They're
English is still a relevant thing.
Not to me.
I think you meant two use "too" their.
No diddnt
Las vidas de los apostrofos importan
The English language is not a thing to you?
Lo siento puto.
La femme de Macron a un pénis.
Just saying.
We need a grammatical version of retard finder. No one should be down voted for correcting (two,to, too/there, their, they're etc). Babies in nappies had mastery of this 30 years ago. It's basic English and it's jarring for mildly educated people to read.
It is a form of demoralization for the mildly educated in that it causes a pause in the internal text to speech engine as it spits out a momentary does not compute. The mind then is forced to contemplate, even if for a fraction of a second, the state of education 15 years ago let alone today. What a fucking shit-show.
It's not about being a grammar nazi, it's about countering the idiocracy.
We?
All beings in the shape of, or even casting a silhouette in the vague outline of a hominid or Homunculus.... and all crab people.
The phrase "grammar nazi" is so last century, its "dyslexics friend" these days.
Then your name must actually be Crock of suds.
They can make their criticism on USA soil. When they did it overseas they were done for.
They took Dixie out of their name to appease the faggot left mafia. They can suck a Dixie Dick for all I care.
The Dixie Chicks and all the other bought-and-paid-for celebrities were setting the table for Obama. I'm sure they were generously compensated, regardless of any "cancellations".
The best advice is "Shut up and sing."
If you're a performer, then perform. Don't lecture your audience with politics or your version of momorality. Shut up and sing.
They were snotty and condescending towards their fans before they even opened their mouths about Bush, and even if they were right in not liking him it was still an ugly statement at a time when they should have graciously thanked their fans for being there that night before doing what they were paid to do - SING.
You really need to understand how the Hegelian dialectic works.
The person who hates our enemy is not necessarily our friend
Most people hear "Hegelian dialectic" and think its some kind of Greek accent ;-P
They never said shit when Clinton bombed or the Kenyan droned. They are uberlibs. Fuckem'
Broken clocks, friend. They were just liberals. Still are.
They were against Bush for the wrong reasons. They just wanted to be liked by the Libs. Weak!
And just like that their career ended
Good riddance...
...the Chicks had moxie...
...I like moxie...
psyop to turn young Christian girls into retarded libs
"psyop to turn young Christian girls into retarded libs"
...silly me...
...I just thought they wanted to sell records and make shekels...
I thought that too in 2003.
now though? 100% psyop, very very easy to see
"100% psyop"
...that can be said of generally all corporate entertainment/entertainers...
...their assertions concerning baby Bush was spot on...
you're correct but it was more lucky than psychic IMO
But it wasn't because of what Bush was for. It was because a Republican was for it at the time. If he had been against the war, they would have called for war. That's how they are. I'm glad they're off the radio.
They were the voice of reason. The War Machine & Media Machine wanted that War badly. We've been on a ride since 9/11. Let's Pray the White Hats get the USA off this crazy hostile occupation.
No they weren't. They were just against any Republicans, no matter the agenda. Just watch recent videos of liberals praising Trump policies when they think they're Biden, Obama, or Kamala policies.
I disagree. They were courageous and going to Iraq was a disaster for America. Great for Israel.
They were cowards. As I said, the agenda didn't matter to them. They were only against Republicans, no matter the agenda. It doesn't matter whether Bush was right or wrong. Those are facts.
You're opinion, not mine.
Not opinion at all, but facts.
Q said "they want you divided".
Let's be honest. We WANT to be divided.
When I was a young adult we used to say "you're THIS political party but I'm THAT political party. Where are we going for lunch?"
Now it's "I have THIS opinion but you have THAT opinion?! The only way that's possible for you to have an opposing viewpoint on any topic is because you're incredibly stupid! If you were smart you would agree with me 100%!"
There is no "meeting half way" anymore. There is no "let me hear your side of it...".
We have all chosen a side and we are sticking to our side without compromise. Because WE ARE RIGHT! And nobody else will tell us otherwise.
Because if we had amicable conversations we might have to admit that we were wrong about some things and the other side would have to admit that they were wrong about some things. But neither side wants to do that.
So we stand divided.
And the ruling class loves that about us.
So you're saying we should remain divided and Q was wrong?
What you are attempting is the "All or nothing" falacy. Also, when you are right you shouldn't need to compromise. The side that is wrong needs to compromise and come to your side.
When the opinions are
Among many such cases…
Their game is to continually get us to cede ground then fail to keep promises/compromises, then reeeee and slander/attack us when we try to take back ground.
What’s your resolution to this issue other than waiting on the sane people to realize that “their side” has lost the plot?
Abortion is Murder.
I refuse to negotiate with those advocating for the murder of the innocent.
Sorry not sorry I do not find any common ground with murderers and neither should you.
Because all else they say is a lie.
I'm divided between my proven facts and their made up opinions. The leftists never, ever, "reach across the aisle." McCain did that more than anyone. There is no middle ground between good and evil.
Didn't they also say they were virtually sex slaves.
The Chicks: ‘We were used and abused by everybody who wanted to make money off us’ This article is more than 5 years old The Dixie Chicks were cancelled in 2003 for criticising George W Bush’s Iraq war.

They made the mistake, while they were drunk on fame, that people cared about their opinions. There truth was, people wanted to be entertained, not preached to. Bye.

The Chicken Dicks? Talent and no brains makes a strong argument for God having his hand in things.
