Proud to be Antifa, like my grandfather, who was killed fighting fascism in WWII, and was posthumously awarded the Air Medal and the Purple Heart.

We clearly must have Mozarts today, and at least a couple of them probably got the same upbringing he did to nurture their skill and talent, and we would therefore have: * a musician of significant talent, dedication, and skill, * who can write music across a bunch of different contemporary genres, * who explicitly draws from the work of other musicians to build their style, and * who is willing to do the musical equivalent of shitposting and wear fancy outfits while doing it. I can only conclude that the modern day Mozart is Weird Al Yankovic. I will not be taking questions. [juxtaposed images of Mozart and Yankovic]
