It is perfectly reasonable for you to be disgusted by this information. It’s also perfectly reasonable if you to acknowledge that this is not all of the information & that maybe going scorched earth is a bit hasty at this point.
I’m not saying the Foo Fighters aren’t dicks. If they line their pockets with this money & don’t do anything of value with it, then yeah, fuck em.

Why do you care if an individual boycotts something they don’t want to support? What impact does that have on you?

So somehow if it’s a private performance it’s suddenly morally permissible? I don’t follow.
