Summary
JD Vance was loudly booed at a National Symphony Orchestra concert in Washington, delaying the start by 25 minutes due to security checks.
The backlash follows Trump’s hostile takeover of the Kennedy Center, where he appointed Vance’s wife, Usha, to the board and removed trustees.
Resistance to the changes has grown, with artists canceling performances and protests over cuts to LGBTQ+ programming.
Vance, a vocal cultural conservative, has criticized “woke” influences in the arts, while Trump vowed to eliminate “anti-American propaganda” from the institution.
The booing incivility in a place known for etiquette is wonderful to see and hear.
Couch Guyliner must have felt a little hot under the collar in what was supposed to be a safe space.
And nice that artists have been canceling performances in the face of fascism.
Oligarchs should probably take note. But regardless of that: let’s keep it up, good people. We are many.
The whole “known for etiquette” thing is a pretty modern development. There was a time when classical concerts could devolve into all-out brawls because the audience thought the music had too many controversial chords in it.
Stop being mean to this alpha-fail, or his mascara might run down his cheeks… 😭
“I think our culture sends a message to young men that you should suppress every masculine urge, you should try to cast aside your family, you should try to suppress what makes you a young man in the first place,” [Vance] said at Cpac.
It’s really telling that this disingenuous, petulant fuck thinks teaching young men about concepts like consent, respect, and empathy is “suppressing every masculine urge.” Y’know, because real “manly men” are unable to control their tempers, constantly worry about whether their performative masculinity is enough that nobody will think they’re gay, and blame society for empowering women to avoid relationships with abusers.
Andrew Tate is their model for what a young man should be. That’s why they brought him to America.

So, no culture.
Strip malls with O’Reilly Auto parts, Chick fil A, and some insurance agent… All next to Walmart, is culture. Just not very inspiring.
You think people like him feel ashamed? Like do they have trouble falling asleep because they’re worried about all the hate they’re getting? Or leaving the house not knowing if they’re getting shamed again? I’d really like to know what is going on in his cabbage patch kid shaped head.
Being charitable, I assume he believes he has a moral / holy halo around him, that he’s doing “the right thing” and “they don’t understand.”
Being less charitable, he probably masturbates to it.

Those poor couches…
Yea, probably the latter.
he brought his own couch to fuck later
Don’t be silly…
He brought his side couch. His own is at home getting the stains out.
As a troll, he probably felt orgasm when hearing boos
