Thelma Houston - "I Don’t Believe Morrissey Is Racist" - Pitchfork, Stereogum

Original quote from Pitchfork article:

Morrissey Announces New Album I Am Not a Dog on a Chain, Shares Song

Excerpt:

...When Morrissey announced his last album, California Son, with a slate of guests, some said they had been unaware of his far-right politics. When reached for comment, a representative for Thelma Houston sent Pitchfork the following quote from the singer:

I don’t believe Morrissey is racist. And I got involved with this track because I’ve known about his music for quite some time. Back in 2012, I was collaborating with an artist named Gabe Noel, and he suggested we try some covers. And when he mentioned a Morrissey song called ‘Suedehead,’ as soon as I heard ‘it was a good lay’ lyric - I laughed and was like… Ok let’s cut it!

Thelma Houston Joins Morrissey On New Single, Says “I Don’t Believe Morrissey Is Racist” - Stereogum

Morrissey isn't racist. We all know he isn't.

It's not exactly sympathy, more a kind of "interesting business" thing. Hard enough, that she has to answer such a question at all. I highly doubt, that this will be the liberation strike "team Morrissey" needs to get back on track in the UK and Europe.

who said he wants to get back on track in the uk,touring Europe and America will do him fine.

America is not the world.

 

[TonyMaroneythePony]

Trust me. It's not.

Better check again, look at the UK elections, the flailing democratic party in the US, democracy wins in Indonesia, pro-democracy protests in Hong Kong, Iran, and even within China, socialism is on the ropes and on its way out. Their welfare and immigration policies are failures, you are in a minority, and if you think the next generation will turn the tide, just wait till they are exposed to the real horrors of socialism that is hidden to them by a complicit media and education conglomerate.

 

[Pippistrella]

Having the temerity to admit that you love and are proud of your country, and don't want it socially destroyed by third-world mass immigration, will always be construed as racism by the brainless woke.

Add white skin into the mix and you can't win.

The real racists are those who use accusations of racism as weaponry of career destruction.

[Moznymous]

Ok he's not racist but where the f*** I can hear Thelma Houston Suedehead version?

 

[Phranc & Open]

Hasn't he been a multi millionaire since the 90s? He has no kids and no ex-wife to feed. It's not about da mani, isn't it?

Morrissey IS racist. Anyone with a brain knows he is.

No. And they don't, because he's not.

 

[ForgivemeJesus]

Well, you took your time to join WW1 and 2 didn't you?

Thank God we did, or the whole European nation as we know it would be Nazified

AND THERE WOULD BE NONE OF THIS GREAT MUSIC BY MORRISSEY.

 

[Stephen Hofmann]

FMJ...calm down mate, P&O was just using the title of a Moz song (YATQ), he didn't mean any offence. Chill.

Oh let's not start going down the silly road, shall we?
You should apologise to FMJ & all other Americans...we are after all the 51st state!
