yk, to speak on something that always confused me for a second
it's so strange to me how MAGA americans and other right-wing types will laud Eminem as some "anti-woke crusader", just because they lack the media literacy needed in order to distinguish between Slim Shady (the fictional character), and Marshall Mathers (the actual person)
like they don't seem to understand that the shit Slim Shady says doesn't necessarily line up with what Eminem actually believes
and believing Em to be "anti-woke" also requires straight up ignoring multiple of his songs, and things he has said/done outside the booth, like:
taking multiple shots at Trump and Mike Pence in his music
the time he literally endorsed Kamala Harris
the places outside of his music where he has expressed support of queer people
also do any of the people who use The Death Of Slim Shady (his most recent album) as proof that he is "fed up with woke" or whatever realise that once again, Slim is a character (a character that also gets shot in the head at the end of the narrative portion of the album), and that he still takes shots at MAGA, White Lives Matter, and Trump on that album? arguably even more directly than previously.
