Musician shares ‘absolutely unhinged’ emails from Kennedy Center’s interim director
Summary
Musician Yasmin Williams posted a viral email exchange with John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts interim director Richard Grenell, who lashed out when she questioned DEI rollbacks and canceled shows under Trump’s leadership.
Grenell accused artists of boycotting Republicans and told Williams, “Don’t be gullible,” and “I’m too busy to confront your vapidness.”
He defended axing DEI, calling it “bullshit” and blaming “woke” programming for financial woes: “Zero in the bank and zero in reserves.”
The Kennedy Center has since canceled 20+ shows, fueling industry outrage.
These MAGA Republicans are all the same: they spend their time going around being the biggest assholes and making everyone's life a misery in whichever way they can, yet if anyone comes back with even the mildest question they freak out and lash out because they are extremely fragile and insecure. They treat everyone like shit but are always on a hair trigger to cry that people are being mean to them. The whole movement seems to be built on various personality disorders.
I have been sayiing it for a long time - being MAGA is a sign of a serious character flaw, even mental illness. I will not be friends with a MAGA, they are untrustworthy to the core. These are the people like the Germans, who got along great with their neighbors, and when the Nazis came along, they sold out those same friendly neighbors.
If you have a MAGA "friend," they will betray you eventually.
A friend going MAGA is literally like a death. Dont put so much blame on mourning people. A whole slew of people I grew up with fell to that shit. Suddenly my friends for life were somebody else. Thats hard on people.
They're stuck in a feedback loop of indidcriminate rage – self-affirming, hateful propaganda – cognitive dissonance – sneaking self-doubt – indidcriminate rage...
