Economy 44,189 Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 She didnt wanna do a show to punish the place? Im sure the law makers care... I dont like how misdirected anger gets lately. Ppl are always generalized into groups and then get on the receiving end of criticism and judgement based on that. Wheres the individual anymore? Its great Billie speaks her mind for issues but dont word it in a way to make the fans attending the show somehow feel like they are the ones deserving shame or her anger just cuz they are from Texas Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

lg5 1,335 Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 She’s so great. I need more musicians to speak out when they come here to Texas. I went to Harry Styles the other day and he didn’t explicitly speak out on the issue, but he did say that everyone should have control over their bodies.

Its great Billie speaks her mind for issues but dont word it in a way to make the fans attending the show somehow feel like they are the ones deserving shame or her anger just cuz they are from Texas A genuine question because you’re really knowledgeable in a lot of things from what I see on here. Why would Billie not attending not matter to law makers? At the end of the day doesnt she pay venue fees that come with state taxes? Wouldn’t that boost the state economy from the amount of people traveling to and paying sales tax on whatever they spend there? All of that goes into the politician pockets in some way shape or form. I know states gain money regardless of what happens but wouldn’t that potential loss from touring acts worry them in some way? Because other artists can follow in those foot steps.

Without huge relevant acts like her they’re not getting those dollars and that hurts them in the end. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose so but its really a drop in the bucket given the size of economies like Texas and the size of Government budgets. They probably will barely bat an eye for it Ur still punishing fans 1000X more than politicians It would probably be a lot more effective to use her platform at direct attacks to the ones making the laws than to protest by not making a show which again makes the fans be the ones to take the biggest brunt of the message not the politicians But she may have figured that out as she ended up not cancelling Also lets be honest, just about every government has stuff worth cancelling for. It may be stuff that gets less attention cuz it may be less political but not any less serious Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
