Irish rappers Kneecap barred from entering Canada: 'Dangerous endorsements of violence and hate'

We banned Eminem at his peak, we're dumb as fuckin rocks on these subjects.

“Kneecap represents not only a threat to the Jewish community, but their incitement, their glorification of terror, represent a threat to all Canadian values and to all Canadians,” Robertson said

Not my values you fascist shit bag.

Wtf canada

Remember that american christian MAGA singer two months ago? 🤪

Didn’t we just let a super felon rapist in like a month ago?

This Gasparro dude used to be a board member of Postmedia.

In July, a group of First Nations leaders called on the federal government to close the borders to the rappers, insisting that allowing them to perform violates the “spirit and obligations” of treaties between FN and the government.

This is also interesting.

But in general, we don't have very strong free speech protections so I wouldn't be surprised if they remain barred.

A festival was held in Toronto about a month ago in support of Israel, wow crazy that Canada approved such a dangerous endorsement of violence and hate.
No problem with publicly supporting perpetrators of a genocide, right?

Who are we to judge people how they resist their occupier. Canada certainly is not in a historical posture to pitch in on how to resist genocide.

Fucking bullshit. Turn up your music so everyone can hear.

Shameful

I'm done with Carney man, this shit is so ass.

These guys and Gary Yourofsky have been banned from Canada. WTF!?

That's fair, since they're on the record as endorsing groups that are recognized by the Canadian government as terrorist entities:

A 2024 performance reportedly caught a group member cheering “Up Hamas, Up Hezbollah.”
