i dislike men as a societal concept. i may have individual men who i like, maybe even love, but i am aware they too will both knowingly and unknowingly uphold the ideas that makes me cautious of an entire gender. and this isn't misandry, it is the state of existence as a (B)W.
it's the same way i could be in an IRR with a WM and understand that while the love is deeply personal and fulfilling, societally it is meaningless for the demise of racism or even in-built prejudices that exist outside of my relationship, sometimes, even in it.

re: fela, this actually true. not the sound but the contents of the songs being more political.
current afrobeats is more like fela’s earlier stuff. it’s just about enjoyment and the day to day stuff. his political era wasn’t how he started. meeting with a black american woman (I believe) made he write about current events of the time.
