The yearly outrage at "Baby It's Cold Outside" spools up yet again

And just so nobody accuses me of picking on rap, this is the number one song in the US as of 8 Dec.

Something called "Happier" by the aptly named "Marshmello", as it is nothing but empty fluff.


Lately, I've been, I've been thinking
I want you to be happier, I want you to be happier

[Verse 1]
When the morning comes
When we see what we've become
In the cold light of day, we're a flame in the wind
Not the fire that we've begun
Every argument, every word we can't take back
'Cause with all that has happened
I think that we both know the way that this story ends

[Chorus]
Then only for a minute
I want to change my mind
'Cause this just don't feel right to me
I wanna raise your spirits
I want to see you smile but
Know that means I'll have to leave

[Post-Chorus]
Know that means I'll have to leave
Lately, I've been, I've been thinking
I want you to be happier, I want you to be happier

[Verse 2]
When the evening falls
And I'm left there with my thoughts
And the image of you being with someone else
Well, it's eating me up inside
But we ran our course, we pretended we're okay
Now if we jump together, at least we can swim
Far away from the wreck we made

[Chorus]
Then only for a minute
I want to change my mind
'Cause this just don't feel right to me
I wanna raise your spirits
I want to see you smile
Know that means I'll have to leave

[Post-Chorus]
Know that means I'll have to leave
Lately, I've been, I've been thinking
I want you to be happier, I want you to be happier

[Bridge]
So I'll go, I'll go
I will go, go, go
So I'll go, I'll go
I will go, go, go

[Pre-Chorus]
Lately, I've been, I've been thinking
I want you to be happier, I want you to be happier
Even though I might not like this
I think that you'll be happier, I want you to be happier

[Chorus]
Then only for a minute (Only for a minute)
I want to change my mind
'Cause this just don't feel right to me (Right to me)
I wanna raise your spirits (Wanna raise your spirits)
I want to see you smile but
Know that means I'll have to leave

[Post-Chorus]
Know that means I'll have to leave
Lately, I've been, I've been thinking
I want you to be happier, I want you to be happier

[Outro]
So I'll go, I'll go
I will go, go, go

I saw an article on NPR talking about this song, of course they support any kind of ban on this type of misogynist lyric.

A short while later, I saw another NPR article celebrating Wu Tang Clan doing a Tiny Desk concert with them.

I did a quick Google of Wu Tang Clan lyrics and laughed at the irony.
 
If liberals say it's not misogyny when black men say it about black women, does that mean liberals don't consider black women to be women?

"Pearl Harbor"

(feat. Ghostface Killah, Method Man, RZA, Sean Price)

[Ghostface Killah:]
Form better niggas, club night, no sparkles
Forty wolves on deck with burners in their snorkel
Criminology, pea soup Wallabees
Ghostface Killahs with degrees in gynecology (Yeah)
Shoot your old lady in her privacy (Word)
A bunch of ho-ho-hoes wanna ride with me (Go Santa)
I'm caught up in these strong-arm robberies
Flee with the lottery, these pussy niggas shot at me

[Sean Price:]
Yo, you ever been face-fucked with a four-fifth?
Sweating, facial expression is stressing like 'oh shit'
That's the shit that I don't like
Non-rappin' rappers in the booth and they don't write
Fuckin' stupid ass rappers
Acting out of their character, I shoot and stab rappers
P! What it do, nigga?
I fucks with Wu-Tang and a couple of new niggas
I don't weirdo with queeer clothes
I share flows, when it enter your earhole
Shit, it's a thing of pure beauty
Everything that's spittin' is written by yours truly
Nigga, when Sean write hard
Niggas do anything for it like Klondike Bars
Pa, I'm the greatest of all-time
How should we forget the latest with Alzheim's?

[Ghostface Killah:]
Form better niggas, club night, no sparkles
Forty wolves on deck with burners in their snorkel
Criminology, pea soup Wallabees
Ghostface Killahs with degrees in gynecology (Yeah)
Shoot your old lady in her privacy (Word)
A bunch of ho-ho-hoes wanna ride with me (Go Santa)
I'm caught up in these strong-arm robberies
Flee with the lottery, these pussy niggas shot at me

[Method Man:]
Since, birth, I've been a fast learner, ask my earth
That's my mama, kept a burner in her purse
This murder in the first
Whatcha thought, that was the gift? That's the curse
I put everythang on it, that's 'The works'
I'm in it for the perks
'Cause it's not about the image, it's the thirst
And how they kill your image with a verse
A hater get it worse
I'm telling every member of your church
They gon' have to put your image on a shirt
'Til I finish my dessert, nobody eatin'
That's everybody, I mean anybody
I might leave somebody bleedin'
Or watch me catch a hommy, even hit you in the lobby
Shotty pop ya like a molly, probably leave you hardly breathin'
Don't try to Blaze with Johnny even if you got an army
Dirty money in the laundry, don't ask why, I got my reasons
I puff that Bob Marley, might hit you with the Tommy
You can catch me in the party near the speaker not speakin'

[Ghostface Killah:]

[RZA:]
Pass any test of litmus, provide that 24-Hour Fitness
On the weekend, I'm sipping Belvedere with that citrus
My dogs is vicious, exotic nympho bark for my mistress
Pipe is good, live every day like it is Christmas
Happy New Year—I do what the fuck I wanna do here, nigga
Splash the handcrafted Gucci from the shirt to the shoe wear
I crush the rings out, wife-beater tee with no wings out
I got stamina, I'll long-dick a bird 'til she sings out
La-la-la-la, Bobby Dig convert Lady Gaga
Back to heterosexual, I'm classic like Impala
Plus, I'm federal, when it comes to making dollars
Like Jiggaman, nigga, if you hear me, fuckin' holla
Power rings like the Green Lantern, last seen in a mean Phantom
In the valley of Ohio, outside the town of Canton
Or the grotty body projects in the Killa Hills of Staten
Saw a redbone in my shower just looking like Paula Patton

[Ghostface Killah:]

I looked at my map and Appalachia is still there . After watching the news I thought it would fall in the sea.
 
Who owns the rights? Hell, this would be a genius marketing ploy. Probably sold more copies in the last couple of years than they did in the decade before. Royalties rolling in.
 
Radio Station Ends Puritanical Ban of ‘Baby, It’s Cold Outside’

https://www.breitbart.com/entertain...nds-puritanical-ban-of-baby-its-cold-outside/

11 Dec 2018 3:01

The Unforgiving Church of Woke faced a setback Monday after radio station KOIT in San Francisco reversed its fascist ban on “Baby, It’s Cold Outside.”

“After hearing from thousands of Bay Area listeners via polling, phone calls, emails and social media, KOIT has concluded that the vast majority consider the song to be a valuable part of their holiday tradition, and they still want to hear it on the radio,” Program Director Brian Figula said in a statement.

Because a small but powerful segment of the authoritarian left are joyless, uptight, censorious assholes who confuse their ability to feign offense with morality, KOIT banned the 75-year-old Christmas standard after a listener complained it promoted date rape.

This is not the first time the Unforgiving Church of Woke called for a ban on the clever and romantic “Baby It’s Cold Outside.” Back in 2015, the far-left Washington Post published a demand the song be rewritten.

In an editorial titled “Well, I Never!” — okay, I made that up — a humorless harpy wrote:

The Christmas song that has been a romantic classic for decades is becoming notorious for being creepy at best, encouraging of date rape at worst. The lyrics haven’t changed; the female role in the duet has always been singing “the answer is no” as the man pressures her to stay. But society’s evolving views on the prevalence of rape, especially between non-strangers, has pushed criticism of a Christmas classic into the mainstream.

…

Until the last decade, the song was rarely considered controversial. Songs like “Santa Baby” and “I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus” were seen as far more raunchy because they directly linked romance or sex with Christmas.

Did I miss this supposed controversy over “Santa Baby” and “I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus?”

“Santa Baby” is about a woman using her feminine wiles to score some good Christmas gifts from her man and the latter is a perfectly innocent song about a kid seeing his mom kiss his dad without knowing that’s his dad.

Who are these freaks?

Anyway, remember what the true agenda is here…

Like the Taliban, the left want to destroy legitimate works of history and art and beauty that offend the sinister Unforgiving Church of Woke — banning Gone with the Wind, rewriting Huckleberry Finn, or declaring as “dangerous” a timeless and endlessly clever song like Baby It’s Cold Outside, a song about adults enjoying the mating ritual (where the woman has all the power, by the way).

These rabid tyrants tear down historical monuments that offend them, while at the same time extolling as Great Art the most destructive, nihilistic filth imaginable.

Porn should not be criminalized, but there is no question it turns too many young men into unhappy sexual deviants, too many young women into junkies, is absolutely everywhere and much more extreme and dysfunctional than the stuff that used to play in downtown movie theaters. Porn is a real problem, but…

Today’s busybody book burners are targeting Baby It’s Cold Outside, MASH, Taxi, and Cheers.

M*A*S*H? That show was a major boon to liberals. Are they trying to ensure kids don't learn how much more realistic and reasonable liberalism was 40-60 years ago than it is now? Or are they just obeying the overlords who want to bury its message of peace?
 
I honestly have not heard a single person express any outrage over that song.

I have, however, heard tons of people getting outraged over the alleged fact that they have been told by the media that some nameless nobodies out there are outraged over it.

It seems that there really is a small minority drowning out everyone else. And, the effect is to have some people believing that the minority is the majority. It is compounded when others are afraid to speak up. It takes on a life of its own.

I skimmed the 256 replies the Democratic Underground (DU) thread. In all fairness, there is an okay range of opinion, but there is definitely a difference between the RPF tone and the DU sentiment. I counted about 10 people who seemed to be bent out of shape. The word "creepy" was used a lot. One person used the words "shameful" and "disgusting."

Here's the thread:

Here's a couple of kids doing a lip synchronization and acting out the song. I skimmed through it and it seemed entertaining.



 
WDOK Christmas 102.1 pulled the song from its around-the-clock rotation of Christmas music this week after receiving a call from a listener who suggested it is inappropriate in 2018.

Sort of ironic how the song is about caving, which is exactly what this station did.



The station said it posted a poll about the song on its website and a clear majority of respondents supported the decision to remove the song from the station’s lineup.

Poll results were not visible on the station's website. However, a poll on the station's Facebook page showed that among more than 600 votes by Thursday night, 92% of respondents favored playing the song while just 8% felt it was inappropriate.

So this station is not only pussy, but it looks like they just outright lied.

None of this SJW nonsense would matter if it was, in fact, just some nameless nobodies.

But the fact is these nameless nobodies are setting policy.
