I realize that the VMAs, and award shows in general, have largely lost relevance, and obviously none of us here are the target audience, but still…

For one thing, why is this thing held on September 11, in New York of all things..? That’s just bizarre timing to me, and surely it’s not coincidental.

Beyond that, though, they’ve shown a bunch of flashbacks to actually good performances from before everything turned to woke shit, and man, it’s like an entirely different world, in terms of quality…

Hard to believe that this is what passes for (extremely globalized - half of it is “Latin” and K-Pop) both “entertainment” and “pop culture” at this point.

It’s like a four-hour ghetto-worship ritual, lol.

Seeing/hearing them ruin fucking “Fly Away” by Lenny Kravitz, which was one of my favourite songs at one point, is pretty much the shit-cherry on the top of this pile of manure, I guess…
