Personally, I think it should be kept in and not played on radio. 

The issue is about do you have to agree with every artist to enjoy their work? Especially given the context of history. The common examples Wagner, but do I not listen to the Roses because I don't agree with Ian Brown's latest tweets? 

However, those that say it should be played regardless on publicly funded radio, are missing the point. You can't just shut people up, because you don't agree.

Thing is it's no different to "bleeping out" things like bitch or nigger

Just because you're not a faggot doesn't mean it's not offensive to a faggot or Karen

Whatever

I'm more offended by Saviours Day by Cliff

At least faggots were real

Good points, we may not agree with Morrisseys views, but I'm no gonna stop playing the Smith's, no chance, they were just to good.

And I'm definitely not gonna stop playing Brownys tunes cos he's shit at tweeting. 

See i don't listen to the smiths or stone roses cos they're shit nothing to do with the politics of the front men.

Yes even though Phil Anselmo is a fucking bellend of epic proportions.

Slayer aren't quite at the level of Phil shouting 'White Power' on stage though

Aye but have you seen some of the stuff coming from Tom Araya's wife?

Anselmo is, and is far worse than Brown or indeed, Morrissey. 

Thats the point really. Love Pantera, Smiths and the Roses. Like Wagner as well.

Bloody hell just read up about Mrs Araya. She's a fucking fruit loop and a half. SLayer have always danced that line between controversial and fascism. And Pantera  copped plenty of flag for the use of the confederate flag.

My 2 favourite bands of all time are Metallica and they're dyed in the wool republicans and NoFX and they're as lefty as they come. Political leanings don't influence my tastes in music that much unless they go full on Skrewdriver.
