        During an interview with Simon Armitage in 2010, Morrissey said that “you can’t help but feel that the Chinese are a subspecies” due to their “horrific” treatment of animals.

        In 2013, Morrissey said that he “nearly voted” for the UK Independence Party, expressing his admiration for party leader Nigel Farage and endorsing Farage’s Euroscepticism regarding UK membership of the European Union.[383][384] In 2019, Morrissey said: “It’s obvious that he [Farage] would make a good prime minister—if any of us can actually remember what a good prime minister is.”

        In June 2019, Morrissey rejected further accusations of racism against him, saying, “The word is meaningless now. Everyone ultimately prefers their own race—does this make everyone racist?”

          While im not familiar enough with UK politics to really understand that second quote at a glance, that last one puts it into perspective real quick. What a total fucking loser. What I used to think were lyrics about an outsider yearning for love, I now see was just a whiny shit complaining about not getting his way, like the lame, incurious fuck he clearly is.

          Thanks for looping me in, dude. You are appreciated.
