He's also become a bit of a nut job ~~in recent years~~ unfortunately

Edit: because he's been a shithead for longer than I realised

Not especially recent:

Around the same time as Britpop exploded, Morrissey began getting pictures taken draped in the British flag; he also began making disparaging remarks about immigration. Hell, he even wrote a song called ‘The National Front Disco’. But while Morrissey’s views always gained column inches, as his music waned and the singer’s original fandom began to find themselves in bank manager positions, he began to find his place in the press less and less often.

So basically, Morrissey has been upfront about being a racist fuck for a very long time.

After the pathetic loser killed 97 people in Norway, the vast majority were children, he had this to say.

We all live in a murderous world, as the events in Norway have shown, with 97 [sic] dead. Though that is nothing compared to what happens in McDonald’s and Kentucky Fried shit every day.” So not only is he a racist cunt, he's a despicable piece of shit in other ways as well.

Fuck Morrissey. Hope he gets remembered for the person he is, not the music he made
