I can’t view Meta as anything but a criminal organization.

There’s plenty of blame to go around for how our politics and culture was turned into a cesspit, but I think it’s fair to say that Meta is uniquely responsible. Between this, the AI sex chat thing, and the rest of their scandals, I’m terrified of what we DON’T know.

What if hobby and also depression?

I don’t know how that can be read as apolitical in the US in 2025. And while I can’t say what the band’s specific ideology is, I don’t think the guys who are making music about surviving mental health struggles and the importance of showing empathy for one another are falling anywhere near the right

Tyler is a rather private individual most of the time but we know he has progressive values at the very least. Take a step back and look at the reality of tøp’s work: a progressive Christian wrote a 5-album story about resisting an authoritarian state based in a corrupted faith.

Outside of the music itself, Tyler Joseph (vocalist and lots of other stuff) is Christian. You can definitely see it in the lyrics at times, but the music is never explicitly religious, as Tyler doesn’t want to potentially alienate anyone.

We don’t even know what the religion originally was, only what it’s become: a system which glorifies sacrificing oneself (quite literally) in order to find redemption, and thus providing more bodies for the leaders to use as they please.

The entire Dema storyline of Blurryface through Breach is a metaphor for the cyclical nature of mental health struggles. The vehicle for the metaphor is a resistance movement against an authoritarian theocracy wherein the religion itself has been twisted in order to control the people.
