I agree with Keef


The Stones are in town(LA) for 2 nights.

With so many things now being now deemed "inappropriate" these days, I suppose this isn't a surprise?

Brown Sugar is part of the Stones "permanent set list".

Systemic racism refers to largely unintentional racist outcomes it's not that America has racist laws, though it's had some, its about systemic issues that end of having racist outcomes.
By self-sensoring, the Stones have let cancel culture win. How? Because the catalyst for the self-censorship IS the cancel culture. They’ve been playing the song for about 50 years, and all of a sudden they had an epiphany? Baloney! They caved due to uninformed criticism of the lyrics. It’s a song which abhors slavery, it doesn’t promote it. Censorship of any kind, whether self-imposed or otherwise "required," is a very dangerous thing ... once it becomes the norm, the we are all lost. The Stones should have the "stones" to put the song back in the set, and damned be anyone, or any organization, or any political movement, or any government, who or which tries to stop them.
As usual in the media, the actual story gets buried and ignored. The band (Jagger) had removed it from the setlists and an interviewer noticed it was missing and asked why. Next thing you know, we have these 'the sky is falling' stories all because a song is changed on a setlist.

But the band didn't do it for publicity or even make a public announcement. It was only after a reporter asked about it it became widely known.
I think that its tremendous that the elites are being exposed to the world in this manner for their many contradictions and selectively authoritarian tactics.  The tissue thin agenda is transparent for all who can think.

Of course the Stones didn't announce this particular decision with fanfare and publicity.  They are British. 

Any fallout was bound to happen organically by the caterpillars; this was always going to be inevitable, and quite effective in the circumstances.
@ghasley we can be amicable and of course there can always be improvements in race relatons but that's not the goal that's being advanced today. We are being purposely divided with the end goals of unrest. Today there are exclusionary practices being performed by black groups and white liberal guilt mongers. Calls for segregated (no whites allowed college dorms) , jobs where white people need not apply, etc. There WERE people on the right side of the 3/5 debate, north, and there were people who were wrong, south. You basically said the same in your response, ie the same people.
