“I wonder why they didn’t do The Hop Jam this year“

[whenwordsfailthemusicspeaks]

That’s a bigger event than some fans seem to think it is. It’s not just a simple little “let’s drop a stage here and we can put some beer kegs over there and maybe some merch booths down yonder.” No. When you’re standing there enjoying one, the next one is already being prepared for…usually. But something happened. What was it? I’m usually on top of things a bit more but I can tend to get a little bit of brain fog these days, so excuse me for being a bit off. Hmm. I feel like it was something big, too. Like the whole world was involved, not just a state or the country. Something about a year, maybe? 🤔

Damn it. Sorry, OP, ever since all of this covid shit and the major financial issues after 2020 and all, my memory has just been so off these days. I think it’s stress, you know? It just has a way of putting a damper on things. Wish I could have been a better help to you!

[stopmeinmytracks]

Boom.

“I feel like Taylor is trying to fit in with his teenage kids with the weird haircuts and crazy hair dye“

[stopmeinmytracks]

cue midlife crisis

[confessinbouthanson]

“Hanson’s silence the latest american tragedy involving guns is deafening. I blame Zac. Always. You know why? because if Taylor spoke about they’d all have too nad it would ridiculous coming from Zac“

[stopmeinmytracks]

They've never really commented on the news though

[confessinbouthanson]

**double confession

“I’m just here to piss off the zac girls. Whats it like stanning a narcissistic racist? sounds like a waste of time to me “

“shout out to all the zac girls who have zac in their profile pic! thanks for making it easy for me to block u :) “

[stopmeinmytracks]

Couldn’t agree more.

“I’m so fucking angry at taylor for enabling his brothers. I want to believe in him still but it’s getting hard to not believe he’s just like his brothers when he continues to not say anything about their behavior”

[stopmeinmytracks]

Of course he’s just like them. The only difference is he’s smarter and better at keeping his mouth shut about his “opinions” than the other two.

[raethebird]

see i dont believe he is like them. they all have different aopinions and theyre almost always arguing. i would like to think taylor has a brain or is at least willing to learn and listen to the people he surrounds himself with

[stopmeinmytracks]

You have the right to your opinion but can I ask you think? What makes you think he’s different?

[raethebird]

[stopmeinmytracks]

Performative activism. Thats all. If he really cared about being anti racist he wouldn’t continue to be in a band with his brother who is obviously racist.

[raethebird]

For all we know he could be working on his own stuff behind the scenes. he could be waiting for the right time to leave and I’ll be here when he does. its only a matter of time before they call it quits anyway.

[stopmeinmytracks]

Your faith in him is admirable and I hope he doesn’t disappoint you

[raethebird]

would you think Isaac or Zac would do something like this?

[stopmeinmytracks]

No absolutely not

“Tbh I wouldnt ask taylor to turn his back on his brothers but I’d rather listen to tinted windows than giving Hanson any streams or money ever again. If taylor puts out any solo work thats what im going to invest my time and money on. Hanson is dead to me.”

[stopmeinmytracks]

Taylor is PART of Hanson. This whole “I’m only still here for TAY” this is DUMB. It’s an excuse to make you feel better for still supporting the band.

[confessinbouthanson]

“Zac is a racist moron and anyone who still supports him is just as bad as he is”

[nerdynattyg]

You’re a piece of shit. Shut up. He’s not racist. And I’m not racist. Fuck you straight to fucking hell.

[stopmeinmytracks]

You’re fucking delusional if you think he’s not racist. Imagine being that in denial.

[confessinbouthanson]

“Zac is a racist moron and anyone who still supports him is just as bad as he is”

[nerdynattyg]

[raethebird]

uh yes the fuck he is. and you just exposed yourself.

[raethebird]

you cant make jokes about blackface like he did and not be racist

[stopmeinmytracks]

Yup. He thinks racism is funny. Let’s not forgot what he also said that if fans didn’t like the joke they could leave.

“It was awesome to be able to enjoy Hanson day from home!!! Great setlists too!”

[stopmeinmytracks]

Apparently a lot of ppl got Covid too

[confessinbouthanson]

“this fandom is a cesspool and im only here to air my grievances”

[stopmeinmytracks]

The fans who have chosen to continue supporting them are enablers. Period. How in the hell every single fan didn’t walk away after that black face joke and what he said after a beyond me. I just don’t get it. How that is not a turn off? The only conclusion I can come to is the remaining fans agree with him.

[confessinbouthanson]

“I guess Dimitrius and Andrew are back with Hanson. I was hoping they’d have learnt not to work for those people by now.“

[stopmeinmytracks]

I don’t think they ever left.

[confessinbouthanson]

“Zac is a racist moron and anyone who still supports him is just as bad as he is”

[stopmeinmytracks]

[confessinbouthanson]

“I miss my favorite band. I miss being inspired by them. I miss getting lost in their music and feel like it’s speaking to me. It’s sad, but it’s also a relief to hear other people feeling the same way.”

[stopmeinmytracks]

I definitely feel the same way. But when all that went down in 2020 I chose to leave the fan club, and not listen to or support them anymore. I don’t regret that decision - it felt right and still does - but I do miss being a fan and the fun I had going to shows and events. It’s been very difficult to not have their music anymore, which was a crutch for me for so long. I’m still trying to cope honestly.
