Fuck Coldplay.
On the face of it, I don’t have an issue with saying this, as his family weren’t the ones preaching hate. But choosing to single out this particular person’s family rather than all the other recent shooting victims is a bad look.

Partially, but it’s also related to the fascism our country is under now. Prominent non-government people who are on the government’s “side” are treated as if they actually are part of the government, because the corruption means they essentially are.
Everyone grieves differently, but his wife literally turned around and used his corpse for Instagram content before he was even in the ground! Add it to the list of videos I wish I hadn’t watched this week
It’s pretty much a given that anyone who would marry him must be an awful person.
Plus that wonderful speech she gave about how her husbands death was a rallying cry to the right to take care of the libs, so, like fuck her too.
You have to remember also he is not American, and Charlie wasn’t hugely known outside of the US, and his death has received massive coverage
eww, he’s normally chill, what happened
He kept getting richer
Sending love to his family? That sounds awfully like that New Age empathy shit, don’t you know how much damage that causes?
Best I can do is sympathy, sending tots 'n pears.
I’ve never liked Coldplay, the singer always came off as douchy.
And now we have empirical confirmation.
I guess you don’t get to choose family, but not sure how this was a high priority for Chris Martin given everything else going on at the moment.
You comment spurred me to read more.
Unless you adopt.

Sorry, are we linking propaganda?

So Coldplay sucking isn’t just a meme…
Yeah I always wondered why they got hate, I guess I know.
Their older stuff was good, but after a few albums the music just sounds like generic pop.
Also the type of people that listen to Cold Play are either not that into politics, or definitely aren’t Charlie Kirk fans. That venn diagram is just two separate circles.

Kirk was a man full of hate. Why should I feel any obligation to send any love to him?
Spite?
The fact that someones feelings don’t care about his facts also is kinda funny.
he spread and fomented hate, on impressionable college age students, to recruit them into the right wing manospheres. which is why conservative groups are trying to elevating him as some kind of saint.
He was pro gun violence and anti empathy. It goes against everything he believed and stood for to send love. These jackasses pretending to care are just masturbating their own ego to make themselves come off as some paragon in divided times. Kirk died for what he believed in while doing what he loved. We should all be glad he did. Even those foolish enough to listen to him and support him should be able to see that.
Nuance: Martin’s request concerned Kirk’s family, not Charlie himself. Let’s not stray from the facts. The other side does that enough.
For all we know, they might be lovely people (unlikely, but hey.)
Still, weird request, and I would have joined the booing in the moment, I think.
Well, his wife said that the movement didn’t stop with his death and that “if you thought that my husband’s mission was powerful before you have no idea, you have no idea what you just have unleashed across this entire country and this world” so probably safe to say she’s a horrible, minority-bashing white nationalist as well.
Still, no one mentions the families of the kids murdered, why is he special? Why is his family special? Him and his hateful wife who are probably brain washing those children.
Honestly, hearing his views, they both seem much better off without him. ESPECIALLY if either of them are queer.
I advocate that we start calling anyone calling for sympathy for this shit bag woke. See how quick it flips their script suddenly doing woke things.
They’re already doing cancel culture so let em be woke now too, fuck it
I dunno I couldn’t give less of a fuck about him but I do feel bad for his kids
Why? I’d be glad if my father died. Preferably before bringing me into this shithole
Why? Cuz now their dad can’t force them to have their rape baby like he went on record as wanting?
In his own words, kids should witness public executions. He literally wanted his kids to see this. Do you really feel bad for the kids knowing that he would have just indoctrinated them too? I feel like they were liberated from a lifetime of abuse.
He said that if his daughters get raped he would make them give birth and take care of the rapists baby. They are absolutely better off without him.
Wow, if I didn’t have a reason to not like them before, I sure as hell do now.
He’s such a tool
Hell no, Tool is awesome (as a band, i’m not so sure on their views).
Why are Coldplay concerts suddenly this relevant?
Their new album, HotTakes, is wild
Go on…
Looks like the corporate rock fans are mad that their band is a corporate rock band
And i think thats a good thing. You should be free to like whatever kind of music, even if its the worst garbage imaginable to my ears.
Does not mean you have to accept political shit-takes from the creators.
It’s like how Jack Black had to pretend to be mad at Kyle bc he’s in so many big budget movies.
I hated how he reacted to that and people were defending him. Over a joke. Black has done some dirty shit, but supposedly got so upset over that joke he cancelled a tour. Fuck him too. #teamkyle
I assumed it was less that he was mad and more that he didn’t want to get shot by some right-wing nut.
Actually the opposite. He’s hoping to continue getting shot by right wing nuts. That’s why he can’t be controversial or they won’t cast him.
If only, I am so tired of chubby carrot top.
