It must be great fun being a liberal these days. You can complain about literally anything. And no matter how silly your complaint is, everyone will cave in to your demands.
I think I’ll give it a try. In the Elton John song “Island Girl” there is this line: “Island girl, island girl, island girl...Tell me what you wanting with the white man's world”. I find that line to be deeply offensive and hurtful. And so I have two nonnegotiable demands.
1. Elton John must be stripped of his knighthood. And that knighthood must be given to me.
2. All copies of “Island Girl” must be collected and burned.
Side note to ex-Sir Elton: You might think that being gay will protect you. But this isn’t 2019, pal.
I wish we would quit using the term liberal. These are hardcore collectivists and marxists. They are probably less liberal than most of us on FR.

I hear you. Maybe “leftist” would be a better, all-around term. But what what really annoys me is the term “progressive”. Liberals - oops, leftists - just made that term up, and then most everybody in the media started using it.

Ha! Good catch. This modern music cleansing is going to take longer than I thought.
“Black Girls just wanna get f’d all night!”
Now, Mr. Jagger, there is only one question I want to ask you — Jaggs. … And you better have theanswer, man, you better have the answer, since you have besmirched the character of black women. Therefore, here is my question, Jaggs. Where are all of these black broads, man? Hey, like, where ARE they, baby? You got any phone numbers for me, baby? …Please send ’em to me. Thank you.
There is a line Quadrophenia by The Who:
“...and you get beaten up by blacks who though they worked still got the sack...”
Another line from the same album: “’Who is she, I’ll rape her”
You are missing the point. Elton John would have no problem getting his own Song banned from the Airwaves as an act of contrition.
Look what Dire Straits had no problem with, the verse below has been “eliminated” from any and all On Air Play and sites that post the Lyrics and they have no problem with it.
“See the little faggot with the earring and the makeup?
Yeah buddy, that’s his own hair
That little faggot got his own jet airplane
That little faggot, he’s a millionaire”
Remember the Artistic outrage when Ted Turner started “colorizing” old Black and White Movies on TCM? I do.
The American Taliban doesn’t just tear down Confederate Statues.

Yeah, you’re right about that. Those folks have reinvented the kowtow. But I still want him stripped of his knighthood.
Now do “Under My Thumb” - Rolling Bones
When I hear the term “progressive” I have to ask “Progress towards what?”. If the CHAZ/CHOP is anything to go by, nothing good.
I don’t use the word liberal anymore. I refer to them as leftists.
