A record label has dropped the band Dream Machine after two of its members were caught expressing “ugly opinions” about political correctness, safe spaces, feminism and immigration.

“We’re horrified and ashamed by this, and we appreciate people being upset but respectful in letting us know how they felt about it,” the record label posted on Facebook. (Get your thumb out of your ass)

She also weighed in on radical feminists’ attitude toward men: “You see the longing for a gender supremacy under the guise of ‘equal rights.’”

On political correctness.

Doris explained why she and her husband had moved to Europe. “American musicians… are getting increasingly politically correct, and it started getting on our nerves,” she said.

“Safe spaces make people weak, and today people should be demanding liberty, not safety and comfort,” Matthew added.

He also said: “Whatever happened to being punk? These days everyone is a bunch of spoiled cry-babies and…
