#hm wonder who created and fostered this environment? who maintained this legacy past his relevance?

So fucking glad Jann Wenner killed his elder statesman tastemaker reputation because of a book he published and promoted. People finally listened to his atrocious, racist and sexist words he spoke himself and by his own admission. I feel like all these years I've been taking crazy pills noticing how much this man through his shitty magazine and being a boardmember of the Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame just got away forever with promoting a shrine to white men and tokenized (rather begrudgingly) a small select few black and women artists into his pantheon and everyone just let him.
