I just learned that the maga rapper Forgiato Blow recently released a song in support of lynching. Marjorie Taylor Greene starred in one of Forgiato's music videos.

I thought his channel was taken down a while ago. Do you have a link to this song?

I dm'd you the video links because the song is very racist.

Here's the news article for everyone else. (cw racism)

I appreciate it! It's probably enough to just do a spoiler and cw it, but that's your call.

::: spoiler Speaking of, cw racial violence

Wow, it's amazing how they just replace the old feature with a black guy to say "look, we don't mean Klan activity!" while getting all the more aggressive about the noose imagery. And the black rapper's name is "Tom Uncle". jfc this is way beyond what I thought Forgiato would ever do, but he makes it super clear by only specifically mentioning two cases, both where a black guy killed someone and a torrent of white fury followed. It's so fucking bad that Youtube is allowing this new version up when the second verse is far from necessary to establish what the song really means.

Fuck, why didn't I think of this? Daily Wire and TPUSA both do fluff piece interviews with him and he's only gotten more cynically partisan lately,* so he's the perfect pick. Overall, it has a mild potential to make MacDonald do something amusing again, since he's been especially phoned-in lately, and not even in a funny way. Let's also bring "Facts" back and have Shapiro do his shitty rap that's somehow slower than his actual speech, it's the peak of his "musical" career since no one gives a shit about his violin.

*He's been an obvious racist/queerphobe/etc. for a long time, but normally he'd mainly focus on the nebulous "Liberal SJW" mass or Biden (and rarely Kamala) specifically for his attacks, but recently made a song that seems to be about Gavin Newsom.
