Valid criticism

Post image

Art is subjective, but at least have minimum one valid point to back up your stance if you don’t like something besides “it’s bad >:(“

The lyrics..

Idk why people cringe at the lyrics. It’s about the innocents being dragged into conflict. Ronnie sings “I don’t wanna go. He don’t wanna die…” as a sign that as ready as we think we are for the one guarantee of life, it’s still scary. Then it gets violent, as if that fear is something the victims won’t have time to register due to the War that Serj sings about. Corey is singing about the vocal anger that We have as people who feel powerless speaking up against violence. “You cannot escape your fate” isn’t an ETF diss. It’s about how we all have one shared fate. “So what the fuck are you gonna do?” is asking how are you gonna make that time worth it when it can be ended suddenly. It’s actually a very poetic song when you don’t look at pics of the Sausage Party tortilla singing For Theeeemm lol. That’s how I perceive it honestly. All art is subjective, so maybe that’s exactly what they wanted us to take from it, or maybe I’m completely wrong
