    For those unaware — or who don’t keep up —

    Jason Aldean is also the one who sang that “transgender people is not a real ontological category” — which, if you know biology and you know history, is an exact quote from the Nazis, who built the genocide of millions out of the notion of “Entarte” — usually translated to English as “Degenerate” but which literally translates as “without ontological category”.

    He openly called for genocide of transgender people. Conservatives ate it up.

    He and his record label and fans are all a part of a violent extremist hate group.
