Pink told her right-wing fans to never fing listen to my music again
While I sometimes find Pink’s politics confusing – especially during the Trump era – she has always been a fierce defender of a woman’s right to choose. It’s one of her most consistent political stances through the years. Pink is obviously torn up about the Supreme Court’s Dobbs decision, overturning Roe v. Wade. So Pink decided to tell people that they couldn’t be her fans if they support the Dobbs decision.
Pink has a very clear message for anyone who supports the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, the landmark 1973 case that protected one’s choice to have an abortion: Don’t listen to her music. The message, which she tweeted Saturday, was also aimed at racist followers, and those threatening marriage equality.
“Let’s be clear: if you believe the government belongs in a woman’s uterus, a gay persons business or marriage, or that racism is okay- THEN PLEASE IN THE NAME OF YOUR LORD NEVER F–KING LISTEN TO MY MUSIC AGAIN. AND ALSO F–K RIGHT OFF. We good?” the singer wrote.
One Twitter follower caught Pink’s attention when he replied that he’s “never had an abortion. Also have never been with a woman that aborted my child. My wife & I saved our grandson from deletion by providing our complete support for our son & his girlfriend, best thing we’ve ever done.”
“I’m so glad you HAD THE CHOICE TO DECIDE WHAT WAS RIGHT FOR YOU, SIR. Must be nice,” she said.
And when another follower joked, “I hope her agent survives the stroke,” Pink was quick to reply.
“I am my agent,” Pink shot back. “We’re fine.”
I think it’s fine? I’m sure conservative douchebags are in their feelings about it, but Pink has every right to tell people to GTFO of her fanbase if they don’t believe in bodily autonomy. I’d also like to point out that Pink actually does have a significant number of right-wing people in her fanbase. She married a dude who loves guns and she comes from a Republican family. A lot of right-wingers have assumed for years that Pink is one of them. They’re really mad that she’s telling them off.
And to all of you sad, old white men asking me if I still make music. I realize you’re out of touch- so ask your kids…. Oh wait- you can’t. They hate you.
