Red Jumpsuit Apparatus Frontman Ronnie Winter Bans Trump Supporters From Their Shows
Alright. The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus certainly don’t fall under the umbrella of heaviness by any means, but this is pretty fucking harsh, in the best way possible. Ronnie Winter, frontman for the Floridian post-hardcore/emo group, took to his social media to make a strong decree against Trump supporters, especially the Christian ones. Basically, if you’re down for Trump, then fuck you. Couldn’t agree more.
Winter’s statement from this weekend went as follows:
“What’s up? Ronnie from Red Jumpsuit here. Just doing a quick little PSA. I thought I was pretty clear about all this stuff in 2020. As you notice on my Instagram, I did not remove any of that stuff from the Stay Woke campaign. I guess you guys are calling it from 2020.
“Look, man, the thing about being woke is you’re awake. And once you’re awake, you can never go to sleep. And not only has nothing changed, but everything they said was going to happen, the woke people has happened. You have done nothing but prove them right.
“So here it is again, in case somehow you missed it. Hi, I’m Ronnie Winter. I sing for the Red Jumpsuit Apparatus, and I actually follow what Jesus says. If you’re a Christian and you’re watching this and you voted for Donald Trump, shame on you.
“You are not allowed to come to my shows. I don’t want you there. Don’t come to my shows. It’s awesome that you love Face Down. It’s not for you. It’s not your song. It is not your song.
“If you voted for Donald Trump, do not come to my shows or ever, not just these four years. Don’t come to my shows because you’re going to hear a lot of woke propaganda, and you’re going to hear the actual words of Jesus. You’re going to see a lot of acceptance from all areas of life and races, and you’re just going to see a lot of harmony. That’s not what you’re about. Don’t come. Refunds are available. Forever, don’t come. Goodbye.”
Speak on, brother. As far as this proclamation goes: 10/10, no notes.
