They made tons of more subtle songs in the past, and it turns out you do have to bludgeon some people over the head for them to get it.

EwokEntourage posted:

The opinions written on it, like the vmi case, use that "exceeding persuasive language," which is accepted by a lot to mean "this is strict scrutiny but we're calling it intermediate bc we want it accepted."

Scrutiny standards only mean something when they want them to, like how Kennedy refuses to ever save what standard applies to gay people

Right, which is why guess who (nope, it was Scalia alone, Thomas recused himself because his kid went to VMI) in dissent complained about exactly that. The problem is lower courts have often been ignoring the tightening of IS in US v. Virginia and just using it as the cite for application of intermediate scrutiny, see e.g. Glenn v. Brumby, and then using less-tight forms of IS.

Scrutiny only means what a court wants it to mean when they use it themselves. A higher court labelling a ratcheted-up standard as "intermediate scrutiny" lets a lower court use plain old intermediate scrutiny (look for an introductory cite to the new, ramped up case and then all the other cites to their circuit only (or just look and see if it's a Fifth Circuit case)) and not actually ramp anything up.

the original point is that if you're making a social critique, you either need:
1. Some subtlety, a la everything Springsteen has ever written that would make your racist dad mad if he realized what he was actually singing
OR
2. Some goddamn bite

This doesn't mean Robert Plant can't sing about how big his dick is. he can do that

As with most genres country is good if you do a little digging, or at least has a greater diversity of sound and subject matter than it might get credit for.

statement of elitism/racism aside, "anything but rap and country" is based on the crap that ends up on top play radio. i'm sure there are already kids who think that rock from the 60's-80's is nothing but the same five classic rock staples
