What's their agenda?

pop

I miss when they didn't focus so much on rap
Progressivism

This. The pop and rap meme ruined pitchfork.

idk but the article on the coachella guy suggested boycotting every conservative-owned business so I'm going to guess it's something along the lines of W H I T E GENOCIDE

I wouldn't mind if they focused on rap every now and then, but if you check out their top 100 best songs of 2016 list, it's almost entirely hip-hop and rap songs nobody cares about

If people didn't care about pop and rap they wouldnt cover it
theyre owned by Conde Nast, the same people who own reddit and mother super ultra progressive causes
they believe in "thought crimes." If you believe bad thoughts, you should be fired from your job or your business should be boycotted.
they love hip hop and they hate white people

People care about pop and rap because they cover it. Pitchfork has too much influence. They are a tastemaker. They say jump, all the faggot drones say "how high?"
>>70184702
Correct
not many people would care about ______ if pitchfork decided not to cover it
this gives them great power. they dont have a competitor even close to their size or influence.

>sometimes people disagree with my theories on racial supremacy and listen to music I don't like so basically I live in a George Orwell novel
someone loves their victimhood

I don't think Pitchfork "hates white people" or believes in thought crimes, but they've used terms like "manspreading" and "mansplaining" in their reviews, as well as decrying the "whiteness of indie" in an article.

Also they're run by the guy who used to head The Onion, which you'll note has over the years changed from satire to thinly-veiled progressive pandering. In the age of online ads mainly driving profits for websites, journalism has to appeal to the lowest common denominator (base pop/rap music) and also foment sensationalism to get ez clicks ("Unbearable Whiteness"). The SocJus narrative helps reinforce the music taste: if it's made by women and/or PoC, it MUST be good! Music doesn't matter, context is everything. There was a thread today about MTV doing the exact same thing. People who don't care about such nonsense will click when they see such inflammatory headlines, while regular readers will feel comfortably validated for having the "correct" opinions about both music and politics.
Pitchfork is run by, written for, and read by weak liberals. It is for those too cowardly or self-serving to fight capitalism, so they turn their attention to "cultural oppressions" like the Oscars not having enough black people or microaggressions on Twitter. Meanwhile people are literally dying on the street as "woke" pieces of shit "fight the power" by listening to Beyonce (who is literally the bourgeoisie as the owner of a sweatshop).

>they hate white people
It's 2017, who DOESN'T hate white people?

>If people didn't care about pop and rap they wouldnt cover it
YES, like radio stations that play what people like, right?
Before you say "yes!, people like that shit and they play because of it":
>Britney Spears releat an album with X songs.
>Radio stations play song 3 from this album, alot of times
>after some amount of weeks, they start to play the song 7 from the same album, alot of times.
If people like song 7 (what you assume, since you say they play what they play, because people like) they would be playing song 7 at the same time they played song 3, thats because according to you people like both songs, they play what people like and they were released at the same time.
