I think what you're missing is that just because many people don't threaten those kinda actions doesn't mean that nobody wants to do it.

No, I get that.

That isn't however the issue I responded to, all I said is there is no nuance to it that will excuse the behavior. People may feel that way from time to time, not many of us will have written a multi million dollar earning song. He felt so shitty about it he would later write a song specifically saying that he talks about violent shit and no one should take it too much to heart and act a fool in their own life.

So if you're aware that this is not meant to be taken literally and that enough people relate to that feeling, what are you complaining about? Nobody is trying to excuse murder.

I think the issue is you didn't know what I was responding to.

They said the song was more nuanced, it isn't. He's right it's a drug addict with relationship issues theorizing the murder of his baby momma. It doesn't need to be more nuanced than reality and the fact that it isn't makes it actually genuine.

The fact that so many people ignore what I'm replying to and instead imply I'm making moral judgement and laying platitudes is incredible and incredibly incorrect.
