Let's get this straight, a racist with a Union Jack is generally a racist, on the other hand a non-racist with a Union Jack is 9 times out of ten not a racist. Since Morrissey has been ambivalent and written songs that can be construed in a racist way, he can easy be seen as racist. Therefore being seen at a Madness festival (many skinhead fans) holding a Union Jack having recently unveiled a song called The National Front Disco is only going to fuel the flames.
"To be standing by the flag, Not feeling Shameful,Racist or Partial"
or so he says...

I'm glad that we haven't forgotten Morrissey. Tell me, is there any word on his health?
― how's life, Thursday, 26 June 2014 22:34 (eleven years ago)
idg why people consider National Front Disco racist either. It's basically a retread of XTCs No Thugs in Our House lyrically. (I'm fairly certain there's tons of songs in this tradition)

what an obscure statement. but its not impossible I guess.

xpost - Irish Blood English Heart - always thought that song is obviously critical of English misadventures overseas; the voice of the song is Moz's Irish heritage criticising the general non-condemnation of of the C17th invasion? Or something like that.

xelab is a longish-time poster who mostly adopts the lower case login when he wants to do the purple-faced impotent rage thing. don't totally 'get' it but it seems to play to the galleries

Sorry for being a rude arsehole last night. It is infuriating when people indulge in this thoughtless FB style Lol union jack shit though. I maintain that THAT is vulgar, unfunny shit, not worthy of this place. I need a second thought before posting sometimes, going to make an effort to behave better in future.

applying a benefit of doubt here in interests of peace.
that aside, the insistence that the flag of a country of however many millions with however many hundreds of years history means any one thing else we fight online is weird IMO
tho I thought the context added in yrs and Stevie's posts both interesting and illuminating also

The gold shirt / union jack / Madstock cover essay was by Dele Fadele, wasn't it? That's an important element of context if so

Is Morrissey still ill
― rip van wanko, Monday, 7 July 2014 21:11 (eleven years ago)
― brotherlovesdub
It was re-released a couple of years ago on vinyl and is quite easy to get on Amazon and elsewhere. First album has just been brought out again too.
― Kitchen Person, Monday, 7 July 2014 22:01 (eleven years ago)
He is not ill, he prevaricates to his audience about his health every time he cops a flu because that is the type of self absorbed, shitty old narcissistic racist cunt that he is. When he genuinely goes, you won't hear fucking anything, it will be like a tiny little bubble popping.
― festival of labour (xelab), Monday, 7 July 2014 22:21 (eleven years ago)

Tbf, that'll probably be because he's dead. If Morrissey wanted to go out like a champ, though, he would leave behind hundreds of missives, with the directive that they be released to the public at irregular intervals in perpetuity. And at least a third should be about imminent new albums.
― Josh in Chicago, Monday, 7 July 2014 22:26 (eleven years ago)
I was referring to scare stories about his fragile health not his garbage music.

i'm gonna go out on a limb and say when morrissey dies it's gonna be covered somewhat extensively in the press
― sinister porpoise (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Monday, 7 July 2014 22:36 (eleven years ago)
But he won't be able to orchestrate the build up to his death. And maybe by then nobody will GAF.
