Cancel Culture: A Night at the Opera

On Monday, July 20th, the Richard Tucker Music Foundation, named after the legendary operatic tenor, Richard Tucker, announced that his son, 79 year old David Tucker, had been removed effective immediately from the foundation’s Board of Directors and condemned “the hurtful and offensive comments” he made on a Facebook page the day before. The Richard Tucker Music Foundation is a non-profit organization dedicated to the legacy of the American tenor, Richard Tucker, who died suddenly in 1974 at the age of 61, through the support and advancement of the careers of talented American opera singers and offers programs in the way of free performances in the New York metropolitan area to keep awareness of opera in the community and support music education programs. The Jewish Brooklyn born Tucker was a main stay at the Metropolitan Opera house in New York which has a street corner named after him near Lincoln Center.

The off-stage drama started when David Tucker, one of the foundation’s board members, posted a comment on the personal Facebook page of African-American opera singer, Julia Bullock, in which she posted a link to a Washington Post article with the headline, “’It was like being preyed upon’: Portland protesters say federal officers un unmarked vans are detaining them.” David Tucker’s comment read,

“Good. Get rid of these thugs and I don’t care where you send them. They are a Pox on our society.”

The Facebook backlash was quick and ruthless. A string of angry replies poured in castigating the 79 year old Board member, which included well known names in American operatic circles some of whom were recent winners of various prizes and grants from the Tucker Foundation itself. David Tucker’s initial response in the comment thread read,

“…The real violence is with many of the so called peaceful protesters…About time someone though will try to crush the mob before they destroy and kill more innocent people. Bravo to Trump to send in federal troops…”

The coup de grace, whether he realized it or not, was when Tucker, responding to a comment made by international opera star, Russell Thomas, posted,

“Pulling the race card is another convenient excuse to modify excellent [standards] of vocal artistry…I am always impressed with the fairness of the panel of judges to pick a legitimate winner for the Richard Tucker Award…”

The online dog-piling showed no signs of abating and Julia Bullock, whose Facebook page this took place on, made a reply that tagged the Richard Tucker Music Foundation itself:

“…David Tucker is on your board. I do ask that you open a discussion with your board and advisors about what culture you are looking to cultivate in your organization.”

This comment, along with countless others, was a clear call for David Tucker to be dealt with, one way or another, which closely resembles tactics seen over and over in the past five years which has come to be known as “Cancel Culture.”

Reading David Tucker’s comments on their own without knowing more about him, especially given the fact that he expressed them on another person’s Facebook page shows a great deal of insensitivity, presumptuousness, and lack of foresight at least. It’s a common trope that the older one gets, the more likely they are to grow conservative, so it’s not all that shocking that a 79 year old would be supportive of right-wing Republican “Law & Order” policies, but those views were obviously not welcomed, to be polite, on by comparably younger American operatic singers in the industry, and they had every right to respond and voice their feelings and opinions. The fundamental problems, as I see it, are that Tucker was repeatedly accused and maligned for words and sentients he did not express. He was instantly labeled, assumed to be guilty without much defense other than his own, which in an online pile-on only makes matters worse, and condemned to cancellation.

The first of many troubling comments made in direct response to David Tucker came from a young operatic baritone and Richard Tucker Foundation award recipient, Theo Hoffman.

“Sad to see the son of one of my idols, a New York Jew [in reference to David’s father Richard Tucker] just like me, talking like a Nazi.”

It’s quite disturbing that someone in their late 20’s or early 30’s would describe comments of a 79 year old Jew supporting the use of Federal troops in Portland where there is widespread civil unrest as “talking like a Nazi.” According to a Morning Consult poll in early June, nearly 60% of Americans supported the idea of Federal government troops restoring calm in certain major cities.

Hoffman replied a second time to Tucker, saying that he was in Portland and “can confirm that the only violence and discord is coming from the police…you are being fed lies. You’re supporting a fascist president. As a fellow Jew, I can’t imagine how you sleep at night.”

This claim is repeatedly contradicted by AP journalist, Gillian Flaccus. In a news report from July 3rd she describes violence coming from smaller groups in the overwhelmingly white liberal city (77% White- 5.8% Black- 8% Asian) is “dividing the movement and drawing complaints that some white demonstrators are co-opting the moment.” She also reports that “some protesters barricaded the doors to a police precinct a half-block from Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard and set fire to the building, which also houses Black-owned businesses, including an Ethiopian restaurant and a barber’s school. Two nights later, a potluck at a park in the heart of the Black community morphed into another violent clash with police, who unleashed tear gas to quell the crowd of several hundred people.”

This sounds quite different from what operatic baritone, Theo Hoffman described in his Facebook reply to Tucker. The vitriolic responses continued, not only in the original thread, but on Tucker’s own Facebook page where he posted a letter to the Foundation’s Board after being removed for his original comments. He was called racist and privileged in various forms as well as supporting fascism and systemic racism and told to reflect on his actions and apologize. A strange twist in the story came when international opera star and Richard Tucker Foundation award winner, Russell Thomas posted a reply directed, not only to David Tucker, but two other board members and the foundation itself.

“…it’s unfortunate to read these comments but not at all surprising. This perhaps explains why in its 40+ year history only 1 black person has won the Tucker Award…This is absolutely heartbreaking. Although we don’t need your approval or acceptance. Black singers not being recognized by this organization sends a message. Perhaps with David on the Board this explains a lot.”

Thomas goes on to say in a subsequent comment,

“…that culture is clear. It’s not one where black singers are recognized.”

Whether an opera insider would agree or disagree with this statement, what is truly clear is that Russell Thomas, who has sung at nearly every large opera house in the world, completely changed the subject from criticizing Tucker’s political viewpoints on Federal troops in Portland to the idea of systemic racism in the Richard Tucker Foundation without any supporting evidence to the claim that Tucker was talking about race at all with respect to getting “rid of these thugs…” As stated earlier, not only is Portland nearly ¾ white, but reports of black businesses being burnt by white rioters. None of the irate respondents seemed to ask, if they in fact cared, who Tucker was referring to when he said, “thugs.”

Were they protesters in general? Were they antifa members? Were they anyone who affiliates themselves with BLM? Or Were they people who were acting violent?

As most social media cancellations spiral out of control, the idea of arguing in good faith, thinking critically, or avoiding logical fallacies are the first things to go out the window and nothing, not even an apology, which Tucker refused to give, would deter the online mob from wheeling the guilty personal non grata to the virtual guillotine. With Tucker’s ouster from the board, the elite members of a once popular art form, now dead in all, but ego, offered up one of its own to the gods of Social Justice Activism: A 79 year old Jew from New York who dared to disagree with the political puritanism of corporatized Equity and Diversity. And as we’ve come to expect, after Tucker’s removal from the RTMF Board of Directors, one Facebook commenter signaled not the end, but the inevitable continuation for blood by posting,

“Thank you. I want to see more diversity within the board AND in the foundation’s award recipients.”

La Commedia è finita!

11 Questions

Rules: 1. Always post the rules 2. Answer the questions given to you by the person who tagged you 3. Write 11 questions of your own 4. Tag 11 people I was tagged by @crookedlovestory ! Thanks so much for tagging me! I love answering questions aha ♪( ´▽｀) Emily's Questions: 1. what tv show are you currently bingeing? who are your favorite characters? Um I'm not watching anything currently cause I'm on vacation, but the last show I binge watched was the Flash. I'd have to say my fav characters are between Barry, Iris, and Cisco. Barry cause he's cute and dorky at times, Iris because of her determination and friendly nature, and Cisco because of the puns :^) and overall that he can play both the clown and show everyone up with a scientific explanation for happenings 2. what is your guilty pleasure? Russel Stouffer eggs hhhh. I only get them if they go on sale, around the holidays, and even then it's not always easy so get my favorite flavors (because they sell out quick when cheap enough). My favorites are red velvet, truffle, and coconut cream. 3. what’s your biggest character flaw? (just being me in general) Um I'd have to say my depression is probably the biggest flaw I have currently. It comes up when people (my parents) yell at me, because I'm trying my best but even that never seems to be good enough. And when I get into that state I shut down physically, and mentally loop on the negatives on how useless I am as a person. It usually also comes up when I'm in a stressful situation, for ex when I'm overloaded with school and social and home problems at the same time. Though recently I've noticed I get it at random times now too, so idk. I just go along with it at this point. 4. did you have an imaginary friend as a kid? what were they like? what was their name? Ha.. Yeah I had an imaginary friend, when I was a little on the older side of childhood (middle school), though there's kind of a backstory to him. I was ahead of the curve with relationships amongst my friends, starting as early as 5th grade (compared to most who started in 7th or 8th). But the ones I had at the time sucked because the guy got bored or stopped caring or was too far away for anything to happen. I tried to move onto other guys, but when I tried to ask them out (yes I was /that/ kind of person) I always got rejected. Of course to my friends I played it off as no big deal, but each time I got rejected, each time after I asked a guy out he would ignore me like I wasn't even there despite us having classes together, it got to me and wore me down. So to compensate I guess my overactive imagination came up with the "perfect guy" so I wouldn't have to worry about being rejected any more, because he would always be there for me.. His name was Marcus. He's Japanese/White mix, about 6 feet tall with a slight muscular build. I used to have trouble sleeping at night because of the insecurities that built up after the rejections, after seeing my other friends have successful relationships so easily despite how much effort I put into starting my own and being shot down.. But in those times- again my overactive imagination came into play- I felt a presence on me that I manifested into Marcus, so that I could imagine someone being there with me, someone who could comfort me and make me feel like everything would be okay. For a while that helped, but it got out of control pretty quickly. Into high school I stopped imagining things like that, or having dreams about him and I, where I could experience a healthy relationship. At that point I gave up on trying to have a relationship, and figured it would be easier just to fill in that spot on Facebook so people would stop bugging me about finding someone. So I made a Facebook account under his name, Marcus Takahashi (I deleted the actual account, but I made a fictional character page that a lot of people have begun to like recently ?) and made it look like we were in a relationship. What I didn't expect was my mother-like friends to come on and start asking a bunch of questions like 'how did you two meet?' and 'where are you from?' and other informational stuff that I didn't want to answer so suddenly.. so I just knocked it off and told people it was just a joke. After that I ditched the idea of Marcus as my imaginary friend and adopted him more an an original character. So he's still around, it's just the context of his character is different now. 5. if you could tell your past self anything, what would it be? Don't fret so much over relationships. That is by far the most destructive thing you can do so early in life (at least speaking from my past experiences). If you express interest in someone and they don't put as much effort as you do into maintaining the relationship, drop them right then and there. It isn't worth the emotional and mental stress of blaming yourself for things you're not even at fault at. Just focus on the friendships you have and things will work out fine in the end. 6. what’s your favorite flower? why? ohh hmm. I think the plumeria would be one of my favorites. My grandma used to have a yellow plant in her backyard, near her pool, and I always thought it was the prettiest thing.. And as I got older and my family and I took walks around the neighborhood, I noticed a lot of people had them in their yards in a bunch of different colors. I think nowadays my favorite one of that species is the pink plumeria because it looks and smells really nice. 7. recommend one of your favorite books. what is it about? why do you recommend it? Boy oh boy. I have a lot of favorite books, but recently my favorite has been Ready Player One by Ernest Cline. The pov from the main character is nerdy and dorky, but relatable a lot of the time. Plus it has a bunch of old, obscure video game references which is pretty cool. I grew up with the games mentioned in the book, so it's kinda nostalgic reading about them. Totally would suggest others to read it. 8. what is a quote that has resonated with you? why is it important to you? Okay this is going to sound kinda stupid compared to all those inspirational quotes out there, but I really like this quote I found in a fan fiction, where the character says, "my sexual desires can be equated to the thirst of a camel". It was a pretty bad fanfiction (not really bad, just too cheesy even for my taste) but I thought that quote was absolutely perfect. Even after I dropped reading it, I kept a screenshot from that for the last three years because it's pretty accurate for me. I joke about it a lot with my boyfriend (which makes him cry a bit but it's still pretty funny). 9. what’s your favorite emoji? Hm. I think 👌🏼 or ✌🏼 would be my favorite ones because I use it a lot in my twitter posts. Like I'll update with something and be like 'this cool thing happened to me dudes 👌🏼👌🏼' or whatever. And I use the peace sign a lot irl so they're pretty useful. 10. what’s the weirdest dream you’ve ever had? *inhales* boi I have a bunch of weird dreams haha.. Um I think one of the weirder ones was from when I was younger.. It was the tail end of elementary school and I had a crush on these three boys that were best friends. I had a dream where I found them at Soak City, but it was super distorted (because almost all my dream places are). So we stood at the top of the colored slides and instead of being their normal height, they were probably 3-4 times that, and on rickety stilts instead. Of course one of the guys told me is was okay to slide down the red slide, so I made a jump for it (scary af). We went on another ride after that (I forget which) and then I followed the guys to the log ride. The guys went in, but I got sidetracked because I saw a cat in the planters next to the entrance. I went over to pet the cat and next thing I know there's a bunch of them surrounding me and meowing. I thought that was awesome at first cause I love cats, but next thing I know they're all scratching me and I kept flinging them off me because I was freaking out. I ended up backing into this room which turned into a distorted version of Chuck E. Cheese. The cats were gone, and I was at the entrance standing in front of an attendant. She said I was a special customer so I got a bunch of free tokens and some food, but at one point I got sidetracked again when exploring. I guess I found the entrance to the employee lounge, which was a maze, and went in because I wanted to see if I could find the end. Turns out an employee found me and asked what I was doing, so I fibbed and said I was looking for the bathroom. They escorted me out, and I ended up in this place that looked like a gift shop with stuffed animals and random toys on shelves. And I think the dream ended there. Pretty weird lol 11. which planet is your favorite and why? Hmm I think Jupiter is pretty cool because it's gaseous and has a bunch of different swirling colors on its surface, plus since it's so large it has a bunch of moons in its gravitational pull (and I think moons are neat). Though speaking in terms of connection to Roman mythology, I also like Neptune because of its relation to the god of the sea heh. I'm not going to do the questions because I already did them on my other blog ʅ（◞‿◟）ʃ My main blog is @turqouiseorange if my other followers here want to check that out. Thank you again Emily for the tag <3 Even though I already did this and tagged you from my main, I answered your questions here because I thought they were really interesting and fun! Nice way to end the day heh ╰(*´︶`*)╯

Top 10 Scariest Facts About History That You Weren’t Taught in School

Today we are talking a few things your teachers left off your lesson plans at school! Join me as we talk about the Top 10 scariest facts about history you weren’t taught in school. Before we get started I just want to remind all of you reading this to subscribe or push that notification bell if you love this website. #10 Heroin

Used to be used as a Children’s cough syrup. German drug company Bayer made a heck of a lot of money off selling heroin to parents. Get a load of these babies! Heroine was a prescription drug in the US until 1914 and was then banned in 1924. Can you imagine how the children would be after a sweet dose of Bayer's Heroine? #9 Hugo Boss Designed Nazi Party Uniforms

Hugo Boss is a luxury German Fashion house that now sells its product globally and is frequently seen on runways. The designer brand started up in 1924 and originally supplied the Nazi Party before and during World War 2. Comedian Russell Brand was ousted from the GQ Men of the Year Awards after making Nazi jibes at the brand in 2013. Remember Thomas Edison from your history lessons…you know… the light bulb guy… well he had a very "Dark Side"… your teachers didn’t tell you about He murdered an elephant, now did they! #8 Thomas Edison devoted his life to working with electricity

Unfortunately he got pretty brutal when he needed to prove a point. In 1903, the American inventor murdered an elephant to prove that alternating current was a bad idea. He invited 1500 people to watch him murder "Topsy" the Elephant at Luna Park Zoo on Coney Island. He also filmed it and released the footage to the public. It is heartbreaking! #7 Ring a Ring of Roses Song

Remember that song you used to sing as a kid in the play ground- Ring a Ring of Roses …. Yeah!.. well ….it’s a death song. Ring a Ring o Roses is a song about people dying from the plague. Ring o roses refers to the rash that plague victims would develop. The pocket full of posies refers to herbs that people would carry to protect themselves from plague…and the atisho atisho bit is the sneezing of a sick person…and the we all fall down bit is where…you know….people physically drop down dead and die. Fun. In Europe, a lot of us are very proud of our monarchy and the centuries of history behind it, but not one taught us at school that King Charles II of Spain was severely inbred. King Charles the II was the last Habsburg ruler of Spain. He was the product of 16 generations of ruler-ship in Europe, but also 16 generations of inbreeding. The Habsburg were a lot like the fictional Lannisters; they were very concerned in keeping their bloodline pure. Awkward. In school, I was taught a lot about the Roman Empire, but I was never taught this…. #6 Romans Used Humane Urine as Mouthwash and crushed mouse brains as tooth paste

Well, what a treat! I guess they had to keep their breaths fresh somehow! They also used urine to clean their clothes. This is basically because ammonia, which is found in pee, takes out stains…so…they were more concerned with having white teeth than fresh breath! I personally would pass on cleaning my teeth with pee and brains…. Just a personal choice. #5 Saddam Hussein was given the Key to the City of Detroit

History paints Saddam Hussein as a bad guy, mainly because he was indeed a bad….er…guy. None the less, after making a donation to a church in Detroit in 1979 because a Reverend praised him, he was handed the city keys. The American history books aren’t so proud of that one. #4 Christopher Columbus Raped Children

Oh well, that kind of extinguishes the "yey" for Columbus and his explorations party. In some places, people even goes as far as to celebrate a Christopher Columbus day. The problem is, not only was he awful to the indigenous people, he also raped them, including the kids. He would often give his lieutenants sex slaves and wrote that girls from 9 to 10 years of age were the most desirable…. Urmmm. #3 Nazi Twin Experiments

I don’t know how much history has shielded people about the kind of experiments Nazi War Lords did on concentration camp victims. Obviously, we know that they gassed innocent people, but the school history books leave out a few choice facts. I know a lot about the Josef Mengele experiments, because I have done extensive research on that area of history , but a lot of people don’t about the veteran Nazis sick experiments on twins and other such horrific medical tests. Mengele would inject chemicals into their bodies, especially their eyes to try and change their colors. Another Nazi, Isle Koch allegedly made lamps from human skin and that's why it gets to our Top 10 scariest facts about history you weren’t taught in school. #2 The Extent of Japanese Cruelty in World War II

Possibly because Hiroshima and Nagasaki were so horrific to humanity and the pain echoed throughout Japan for a great deal of time, the extend of Japanese killing in world war two is somewhat brushed over by history. Of course all countries involved inflicted pain and suffering, but did you know that Japanese torture methods were considered to be the most severe, that the Japanese killed more Chinese soldiers than the number of Jews killed in the Holocaust , and that Japan wounded more American’s in Alaska than at Pearl Harbour? There were also swathes of reports of Japanese cannibalism. Of course, this far in the future, we have to live and let live, but Nazi Germany got the lions share of the blame for atrocities, and Japanese war crimes are largely glossed over. #1 Russia and Japan are Technically Still at War

Finally….just when you thought we were sort of semi living in a time of peace…. You may not know that Russia and Japan are technically still at war. Two powerful countries who are still sour post World War Two. Eeesh!!. Even though the countries haven’t been engaging in hot war for over 70 years, they never signed a peace treaty officially indicating peacetime. The pair still disagree over the Kuril Islands. SO that was the top 10 scariest facts about history you weren’t taught in school. I actually really enjoyed this list. Love me a lil bit of history! Did any of you guys already know some of this stuff? What did you find the most shocking ? Let me know in the comments section below. The teeth brushing with mouse brains and urine was a personal highlight I think. Read the full article

The New Hope, Thats What We Should Name Ourselves, But Then How would We Make Ourselves Known To Everyone? A Banner That’s Right, A Banner Design Meaning Peace, Order, Yes That’s It, But How Should It Be Made?” Alaron Sits In The Courtyard Thinking He Walks Inside Going To The Beds Area “I’ll Ask The Others Later” Later He Falls Asleep
