Jesus Christ you people are dense.  Of course being gay doesn't affect their ability to fly a helicopter - that's the point he's trying to make.  Why make a big fuss over it?  TO BECOME MORE WOKE and appeal to smooth brain libs.

Depends on the context. He wasn't the most technically skilled guitarist of all time, a lot of blues guitarists weren't. They played purely from feel/emotion. Guys like Vai and Satriani were more cerebral and blow him away in terms of their knowledge of theory and the breadth of their skill/style, but they were also directly inspired by Hendrix. You can still argue Jimi was the greatest ever because of influence. He propelled rock music into a totally new realm that influenced countless acts that followed him. The created sounds that had literally never been heard before and a persona that many tried to imitate but never reproduced. He was genuine and he was innovative. I'd still consider Jimi the greatest ever, but in terms of "the best," that depends on your criteria.

I like Jimmy, but Chuck Berry did more for rock music than Jimmy.

I can respect that opinion. Berry was part of the foundation of rock 'n' roll, so he's obviously a big part of its history. When I think about rock's hayday in the 70s, though, I relate a lot of that most directly to the psychedelic/blues-based hard rock of Hendrix, but there's a lot of crossover. A lot of people in Hendrix's own generation were influenced by him, but when you're talking about Clapton, Led Zeppelin, SRV, they may have been heavily influenced by Hendrix but really were rooted in that old-school blues/R&B era from the 50s that connects to guys like Berry and Albert King. They're all intertwined.

Well, that certainly doesn't fit the narrative:

It's the leaders at the top that are against this. It messes up how they organize units, they think it makes them look inept. The rank and file troops on the ground mostly don't have a problem.

A guy who does not get enough respect for changing the course of music is Tom Scholz from Boston.  Dude wrote the blueprint on how you produce a rock record.

I guess so, because I didn't even recognize the name, haha. I'll have to read up on him. Along with that, I somehow forgot to mention Little Richard. Alan Freed also doesn't get enough credit outside of musical circles.

How is it more woke? You mean gays and lesbians don't have to hide in closet over fears of being kicked out of military. Seems like common sense to me.

The man is an absolute legend! Still holding out hope for him to run in 2024.

Has anyone else seen this latest nonsense with the woke brigade over Snow White?

YES!

I mean what the actual F!

A ride for kids at Disney, depicting an 80 year-old cartoon about Snow White is the latest example of the complete out-of-touch insanity of the leftist woke mob. This just magnifies the idiocy of political correctness, and is actually quite frightening that anyone in their right mind would be concerned about the prince kissing Snow White to awaken her from the wicked queen's spell. ARE YOU KIDDING ME?????!!!!!!!?????

Did a lot of people actually complain, or is this just Disney trying to get out in front of the matter like the Dr. Seuss thing? Either way, I hate Disney, lol.

No no they are absolutely right. It's either rape or its necrophilia. That wasn't Prince Charming that was Prince Andrew. Sick sick man.

"Some writers" does not constitute a majority or even a sizable minority, though. Sounds like Disney is the problem for throwing in the towel after a single editorial.

Yeah, the people calling out this insanity are the ones to blame. Not the ones perpetuating it. Makes sense.
