Not even nostalgic '00s rock is free from being cancelled in today's clown world. Someone should've destroyed the bitch in a mosh pit if she was gonna turn out like this.

Some 'highlights':
'Where I once enjoyed indulging in some much-needed nostalgia (often in the form of revisiting mine and my then-boyfriend’s Taking Back Sunday ‘song’ when I was 14) it now seems to me that our guilty pleasures are in fact guilty of being sexist, and in some cases extremely derogatory towards women.'
'Listening back to the lyrics to many of the bands I idolised as an innocent teen, as a 28-year-old, I’m pretty disgusted. Instead of basking in nostalgia, I feel sick hearing them.'
'Some hits from these cult bands are slut-shaming (even rape-defending) and reduce women to sexual objects.'
'It’s got me thinking: how much of this music has affected my – and much of my generation’s – perception of sex? How much of this music affected me growing up, and how I allowed myself as a woman to be treated by men?'
'If I’m being frank, it verges on incel territory'
