Brian May criticizes gender-neutral Brit Awards and cancellation culture

Queen guitarist Brian May speaks out about Brit Awards music and culture cancellation. This is reported by the Mirror.

The musician criticized the genre-neutral award, which a few days ago decided to abandon the division into male and female nominations. “I am so sick of people trying to change something without thinking about the long-term consequences. Some of these things are improvement, some are not, “May said.

He stated that there is an atmosphere of fear in society, and people are afraid to say what they think. The guitarist also noted that if the Queen group appeared now, she would have to recruit people of different genders, different skin colors, as well as one transgender into the team.

May recalled that the leader of the group, Freddie Mercury, was born in Zanzibar, but nobody ever discussed it. “He was a musician, he was our friend, he was our brother. We didn't have to think, “Oh, now we need to work with him? Does he have the right skin color? Does he have the right sexual orientation?” group leader Freddie Mercury from AIDS. The guitarist believes that if his colleague contracted HIV later, special drugs could save his life.
