Year in Review 2023
(hexbear.net)
Hi comrades, how was your year?
What are your thoughts on the year 2023?
Feel free to discuss anything that happened this year in personal life, art, culture, world historic events and so on
My personal year has been a whirlwind. Started and graduated school with a bunch of certifications, a series of interesting things at work, my then partner and I broke up which was a long time coming. Its been a mess and honestly I'm looking forward to the job hunt with my new certs, I'll be able to get a way better job than what I've got now both in pay, fulfillment and time off.
In art I thought Ye was finally cancelled but I still hear him at my local franchise gym. I straight up abandoned a set because I got so distracted by it. Like, wtf, that was the end of last year and I still hear him places. Wild.
I also had a breakup this year
I think that kanye is completely uncancellable at this point. My guy literally said "I like hitler" and nothing happened lol
I mean, he's canceled in most meaningful ways. Lost a billion dollar fashion brand deal, his name is mud everywhere but the most right wing possible spaces and small pockets of normies that don't know why nazis are bad. Also, all major banks won't do business with him anymore except the most secretive, unscrupulous ones.
There's no evidence his music sales are up or down because he hasn't released anything since he went full nazi.
If your definition of canceled is no one listens to his music anymore, that ain't gonna happen. And he has enough money to keep creating music indefinitely if he feels like it.
I get that "Cancel Culture" is barely real in the first place, but you would think anyone would be persona non-grata after that shit.
