Hermano@feddit.detoShowerthoughts@lemmy.world•The lack of "real world complaints" and "anger" in popular music genres helps keep the masses docile

1 year agoMost political songs belong to more extreme political views, I’d say. Thus they’re divisive and are more prone to angry music styles. Most people seem to prefer music that makes them feel good, so non political songs are more succesful. There are political feel good songs, ‘we are the world’ comes to mind. So I don’t think its a conspiracy of record labels to keep the masses docile. Plus with streaming services the big labels loss influence, but things have not changed much.
I’ve used linux for 20 years and was generally happy. I always used my main rig to play games, so I kept windows since my tries to switch to linux for gaming ended unsatisfying. Last October I decided to get rid of ms products and said goodbye to windows for good. Gaming on linux today works great. I am constantly amazed how great everything works and happy pretty much every time I turn on the PC. A big thank you to everyone involved in linux development!
