A song a bet Tyler regrets now. Lol
I’m not sure, he’s not a billionaire or anything. He has money, but he earned it through working rather than exploitation AFAIK.
That makes him working rather than owning class, right? I’m no expert.
He’s definitely worth a ton. Estimates at $150m which will be almost entirely from residuals on Aerosmith music. But he’s also a registered Republican.
See, that’s the thing though, he earned the money for selling music and doing concerts.
The song is a class warfare anthem.
I think it’s pretty important to not condemn him for political alignment ALONE.
NOW, if he was funding Trump’s legal defense or something heinous like that, that would be more serious.
Point being, open political discourse is critical. Don’t wanna be fascist or anything.
It’s a class warfare anthem, yes. But it’s sung by somebody who actively and openly supports the party that is most egregiously anti-working class right now.
It’s most likely that 30 years ago he wasn’t as well off as he is now and has had a change of heart in his older age. My point is that he likely doesn’t fully agree with the messaging anymore as he is in fact now quietly rich and voting against the poor.
