@mekkaokereke @rasmus91 what I love so much is how integral the drumming is to the song. So many drumming videos are just drumming gymnastics. Yes, Jonathan’s drumming is technically incredible but it also fits the song perfectly. Testament to him and also Quincy I’m sure had some influence

@mekkaokereke Graduated from same HS that Jimi Hendrix and Macklemore went to (and me too)

Totally agree that it’s still not clear that any actual alternative is better. And totally agree about motivations of most of those promoting idea. Though others on the left have been as well, such as @davidsirota who’s made a compelling case for a contested primary

That said, it’s disappointing to see the 74 associated with this effort. It’s a pro privatization corporate ed reform rag backed by the DeVos family and other billionaires
