Rules:
- The mods are fallible; if you've been banned or had a post/comment removed, please appeal.
- Off-topic posts will be removed. If you don't know what "Leopards ate my Face" is, try reading this post.
- If the reason your post meets Rule 1 isn't in the source, you must add a source in the post body (not the comments) to explain this. If the reason is in the source but is tedious to find (e.g. in a lengthy video), you must add an explanation for where it is.
- Posts should use high-quality sources (for a rough idea, check out this list), and posts should retain the title (if one exists) from works like news articles, videos, etc. You may (but need not) edit your post if the source changes the title. Other types of posts should have a title which accurately, relatively neutrally describes their contents.
- For accessibility reasons, an image of text must either have alt text or a transcription in the post body.
- Reposts within 1 year or the Top 100 of all time are subject to removal. Within moderator discretion, this doesn't just include reposts of the exact same media but also includes e.g. a secondary source telling basically the exact same story as another that was already posted.

MODERATORS
See my next comment itt.
Why is it when I see a completely fabricated insane take it is so frequently you? Grow up already.
Except for Flo Rida, ~~Bret Michaels,~~ and Vanilla Ice (known Trumpers), your list of "white supremacists" is complete horseshit.
Almost all of the names you listed have dropped out now, claiming that they did not know when they signed that it was for Trump's concert.
Also, it is laughable to even suggest that the Commodores, Young MC, or Morris Day and The Time are "white supremacists" in any way. These three acts all have a certain special something in common. Can you guess what that is?
EDITED TO ADD: Bret Michaels has now also dropped out as well, leaving only Flo Rida, Vanilla Ice, and possibly C+C Music Factory who are now "apparently weighing whether to perform," according to the updated article I linked above.
The save thing Kanye West has in common.
Edit: apparently people think Kanye is an anomaly. Enrique Terri, Nick Fuentes, Clarence Thomas, Candace Owens, just because people have color doesn't make them not supremacists, any less than Nikki Haley, Usha Vance, Kristi Noem, Pam Bondi are male supremacists.
Kanye West is representative solely of Kanye West, and that's only on his better days.
So if you have ANY evidence, no matter how sketchy the link, of these non-Trump-linked specific acts that you named and/or their individual members' participation in and/or adjacency to "white supremacy" aside from their already cancelled appearance at Trump's concert, I invite you to bring it forward, because it is literally fictitious.
Your assertion is ludicrous to the point of being actively offensive. Naming proudly Black people and acts who have already disavowed any intention of supporting Trump, not to mention "white supremacy," is a slap to them and to their good names. It's a truly shitty thing to say.
