Who the fuck cares if ensembles "reflect their communities?"

I'm having a hard time visualizing an audience for this orchestra/opera

There is very little diversity in who attends classical music concerts

Last time I was at the Kennedy Center it was the whitest fucking white night out I've ever seen. I almost needed sunglasses inside for all the whiteness. I don't mean like a large percent, I mean it was like "where's Waldo" to find someone who wasn't white.

all these Girl Scouts who either never went to a concert or were dragged to a bad one.

aka not the damn target audience -- just like literally everything in cancel culture.

Who gives a shit if they boycott you, they weren't buying anyway.

Worse yet, take a look at modern video games, every time a new game comes out, the actual target audience complains and says they will boycott, then they all fucking buy it anyway.

I'd love to see a case where a leftist boycott actually worked to depress the value of a company. All these companies are caving to pressure that doesn't even exist

Pretty much this.

Back when I gave a fuck about sports, I wanted to see humans in peak physical condition (at least for their discipline) achieving something fantastic. When I watch movies, I wanna see an actor who can so thoroughly embody another character that the line between fiction and reality blurs.

I don't give a fuck what color they are, so long as they are the best at what they do.
