Thanks For Breaking It Down For Us, Morrissey

It's another day, which means the grouchy old grass fed cunt that is Morrissey is once again spitting out his own toe nails while spitting out a statement that is offending a lot of people. Morrissey once called the Chinese a "subspecies" and at a concert in Poland on Sunday, his name ended up on a whole new group of people's Shut The Fuck Up List when he compared the massacre in Norway to fast food. This mess came out of Moz's meat-free pie hole before he sang his song "Meat is Murder":

“We all live in a murderous world, as the events in Norway have shown, with 97 dead [sic].

Though that is nothing compared to what happens in McDonald’s and Kentucky Fried shit every day."

Then Moz went on to say, "And 9/11 ain't nothing compared to what's happening on the buffet line at Sizzler."

If this is Morrissey's way of trying to get a place on Spaz de la Huerta's debate team for crazies, then he can stop right now, because I'm pretty sure she's FedEx-ing him a team blazer right now.

We all already know that Morrissey mostly hates people and has an undying love for animals (although, the feeling is not mutual for some animals). Sometimes I feel the same way, but to say that fast food is worse than the massacre of children? Everything is a tragedy competition to his ass. Like if I told him I had a headache, he'd probably say, "Poor you! What about the pig who has no head, because it was murdered for that hot dog you're eating."

I say this as a fan of Morrissey's music (it's the junior high school chola in me), please just shut the fuck up already and get fucked. Since you're off meat forever, fuck yourself with a tree branch. xo.

This is another example of when I separate the artist from his/her work. I will remember The Smiths and play their music ("Girlfriend in a Coma," "That Joke Isn't Funny Anymore," "This Charming Man," "The Queen is Dead," "How Soon is Now," "Big Mouth"), remembering the lyrics and Johnny Mar's guitar and not the nasty nonsense that Morrissey seems to effortlessly spew.

Morissey, fuck you. Your music sucks, your voice is whiny and nasal, and you're even older/uglier on the inside than you are on the outside. I'm a vegan, so now because of PETA fucktards like you shooting their diarrhea mouths all the non-veg*ns are going to paint the few of us sane, ethical vegans with the same sociopath brush.

I'm sad that people are desensitized to the suffering of animals, truly I am, but there is no magical trade-off of human for animal suffering. Only a juvenile, inferior mind would invest in such fallacies. If you weren't a bitter, haggard old queen with more than a touch of early dementia, maybe you'd realize that humans are animals too.

By the way, did I mention your frustrated tuneless geezer yodeling ahem I mean "singing" makes me want to douse my ears in gasoline and strike a match?

Mhm, maybe you people should watch how animals are slaughtered and then tell him that he's an asshole again.
And btw: just because my species is on top of the foodchain it doesn't mean that I have to eat everything that's "below" me - apart from this cows, hens, horses, lambs are herbivores, pigs are omnivores - so I would actually have to eat pork all the time to make a point.
This is no "I'm holier than you" message, but somehow all the contra on here sounds as if children are revolting and won't see that they are responsible for their doing.

---------

Slaughterhouses are SAD. And the people on here comparing plants to animals are just as big of assholes (animals are smart, and they experience loss, feel sadness and fear, can can most definitely feel pain) as Morrissey is. He wants to make a statement? Great! But don't do it at the expense of innocent lost lives. He should do a benefit concert..lots of other artists would probably do it with him, or free informing concerts...he can afford it and has a big enough following to reach a lot people.

PETA can be just as bad, which in return makes all other animal organizations look bad. I went to CA and did an internship with Farm Sanctuary a few years ago, and people around the small there think that everyone there is crazy because of things like this. You can do good in the world without being a jerk about it

Plants actually do scream - but i only know of their screams when they're too dry - the screams are heard by pests who ten attack the plant. I have no idea if they're also screaming when cut down.

Asshole. Also a friend who worked in a hotel in Dublin about 10 years ago told me he rang down to reception demanding real milk with his breakfast cereal instead of the soya they had provided. Vegan my ass.

eating healthy is unfortunately a luxury,Morissey seems like a bitter asshole and i hear what has been said about dehumanizing humans and shit.

He offends my bloodthirsty sensibilities. I'd say we eat him, but something tells me he'd be tough and leathery. Maybe a strong lemon, olive oil, rosemary marinade for a few days. Mmmmmm, Morrissey.

I stopped eating at Mickey D's years ago because it sucks, but I'm sure the innocent dead in Norway would want to be compared to a Big Mac.

kate773,

I agree on both accounts! Peta is good in the way that they help animals and raise awareness, but their tactics are harsh and embarrassing even, and I've been a vegetarian for 14 years and think that. Morrissey belittling the deaths in Norway is not going to make any people run to find out about what happens at Mcdonalds, either.

You can inform people and hope that they care, or you can get active and make an actual difference, but by forcing your opinions on people and acting irrational you are not going to get your message across to anyone. I don't know why people can't seem to grasp that concept.

I've never been a fan of his, his voice annoys me and he sounds like he's whining instead of singing, so when I read this nonsense he said, I imagine him singing the words out instead.

Morrissey is an artist who's a giant flaming twat but his art is so great it's all forgiven. I suspect he knows that.

I have seen pictures of this guy, but I have NO IDEA who he is or what songs he sang or way anyone gives a FUCK what he has to say about anything.

Is he a vegan? He's rather fat for a vegan.

While I understand the political/social aspect of his comments, really, STFU.

I think he's some fucker from the early 90s? I don't know. If he wasn't playing on Kiss-FM or WBLS, I wasn't hearing him. So fuck him.

I HATE people like him who make all of us meat-less animal activists look crazy. I understand how people get so passionate about it, because it is really sad to wittiness the suffering and abuse that is unnecessary, but saying that the murder of many innocent people is nothing compared to the suffering of animals isn't right at all. It really isn't doing nothing to help the cause of animal abuse and it's basically disrespecting the tragedy of what happened in Norway.

*******************************

THIS

I eat meat. I like it. However, I abhor cruelty to animals. I have no problem with PETA's message. I have a problem with the method. It's no different than the Westboro Church. I find them that offensive. (Although I don't like Westboro's message either.)

The point is, when I hear Morrissey saying the tragedy in Norway "IS NOTHING" compared to what goes on at McDonalds, that's when I get pissed off. It's NOTHING?? Are you kidding me? That's textbook delusion. He's so far up is own ass with his militant agenda that he's lost touch with reality.

And this is coming from someone whose shelter-rescued cat is lounging on the bathroom floor with a frozen bottle of water to keep him comfortable in this warm weather.

And I am a massive - MASSIVE - Smiths fan and Mozzer fan, but I don't pay too much attention to what he says in interviews nowadays. Even though he was pretty much a zealot in his youth, he came across as somewhat reasonable and thoughtful during alot of the interviews, not as shrill......maybe bitterness has something to do with it now. He actually has a wonderful, bitchy sense of humor that isn't always apparent.

super-ette's picture

I don't think you can compare Morrissey and Marr. They complemented each other. Marr wrote the music and Morrissey wrote the lyrics. It was a partnership. Morrissey had some cool studio musicians during his solo career, but none of the various iterations of his solo "band" could ever compare to what he had with the Smiths. Andy Rourke and Mike Joyce never received their due, but Morrissey and Marr made that band what it was. Morrissey now looks like my dad.

For the omnivores among us who love the taste of murder:

http://breakingnews.ewg.org/meateatersguide/eat-smart/

Environmental Working Group has a great guide to different meats and animal products and their impact on the environment.

He's as big a mediawhore as any Real Housewife, but he coats his limelight-hunger in holier-than-thou causes. In this case, it's "meat is murder". Well, guess what you haven't-been-laid-since-Thatcher-was-PM has-been, you truly suck. You should build a statue of Johnny Marr out of tempeh and give him praise for lifting your sad-sack ass out of obscurity and elevating the entire band and not just some twat who thinks he's St Francis Of Assissi in St. Vincent de Paul Thrift Store fatigues. Go sit on a daikon and pretend that its one of the cholos who turned yo miserable ass down.

Just makes me wanna go picnic on Morrissey's lawn with a bucket of KFC.

Morrissey I luv you and I know meat is murder and all but please only open your mouth to sing.

MK, I didn't know you could be so mean! Not that I mind, because Morrissey is being an idiot, as usual. Comparing the consumption of meat to shooting down a bunch of kids trapped on an island is just a terrible insult to Norway. Anyway, I love me some friiiiied chicken, and if anyone will convince me to stop eating it, it definitely won't be PETA.

Sorry, but we absolutely have a choice in eating junk food. You can buy organic, go veggie or get an allotment and grow your own. Back in the 50's, people spent a really big proportion of their household income on food, now it's a tiny amount comparatively speaking. If people bought less ipods and more healthy food, most could avoid junk food altogether. It is totally a choice.

I also know which death I would prefer out of a diet of tasty food and cancer at 65, or being gunned down by a lunatic on an island in my teenage years. No comparison.

Sorry, my comment might be misinterpreted.
I'm vegetarian and the dairy and eggs I eat come from local farmhouses.
Having said that, it is obvious that people can chose what to eat (if they can afford it, junk food is way cheaper than organic food), but it is also true that the massive production of food and the consequent pollution are affecting indirectly every piece of land in this planet.
Not to mention the fact that plantations of food for animals for slaughter are getting bigger and bigger so that there's no place for anything else. See for example what is happening in Argentina, where local primitive tribes are chased away by intensive livestock farmers.
Finally, the Western countries are literally letting the third world countries die of starvation just not to lose their privileges.

Morrissey - just retire you bitter old queen! His albums in the last decade become more pretencious/crazy and his voice is goinggoinggone. I can't believe people are still going to see him. I last saw him in 2002 and that was close to the unbearable point.

Plus everyone knows Koreans are the meanest of them all.

However this piece of shit feels about eating meat being murder, did he have to bring up the murders in Oslo NOW?? I get that he's not just vegetarian but positively militant about the issues around it, but it takes a special flavor of cunt to grab a mic and in a bid to stay relevant and edgy, barf up a quote like this.

I doubt while he was watching the coverage (if he bothered) he thought much about it at all, but before he got up onstage he was thinking, "what sort of thing can I say to get everyone to go wild? I know, I'll talk about how the murders in Oslo are the same as making McRibs!"

He's stupid and irrelevant.

Sorry to say that, Michael K, but you have missed the point this time. Although Moz is an animalist he wasn't merely talking about slaughtering of cattles and chickens and all, he was blaming the multinational companies that actually are killing us all through the overproduction of food, poisoning of the land we live in, the utilization of antibiotics to make the animals stronger and fatter are killing us. And to eat junk food is no more a matter of choice, we are forced to because there's nothing even remotely natural and safe in what we eat.
Oslo's massacre is tragic, but the killer will be punished, Multinationals companies will continue to kill us and destroy the environment, that's the point.

EXACTLY. Thank you.
