I don’t know, it seems like “Morrissey gives an interview in which he praises a racist” Day seems to come round earlier every month. I still haven’t finished the nut cutlets from the last one.

I’m so glad that Morrissey died after releasing Vauxhall & I. This stand-in is awful. https://t.co/Ja6oyVlNpy

the "if you ignore people with unpleasant views they'll just go away" truism is very flawed and peak liberalism BUT I think Morrissey is the one person it's worth trying it out on

My current theory is that Morrissey's opinions are purely something he does so his novel isn't regarded as the worst thing he's ever done.

Bryan Cranston talked of Walter White being a character that you empathised with for long enough that when he really turned bad, it was too late, you were hooked, and so with teens of the eighties and Morrissey…for so long, but not forever.
