Ya think? I did say I, not We or You

Yes, and I noted the manner in which either “I” or “you” or “we” or “they” will react to controversies like this based on the manner in which I have come to understand human identity here as embedded in dasein.

In other words, making the distinction between that and those who insist that, no, if you don’t react to the artist as I do, you are wrong. You are, in fact, immoral.

It’s like back in the day when I was a political activist and songs like these…

…were controversial to some because they were white artists using the N word.

Is that okay? Can we pin down [philosophically or otherwise] the morality of it?

So, are you a moral objectivist here?
