End of the American Dream
If people that lived 50 or 60 years ago could see us today, what would they think of our culture? I believe that the performance of “Unholy” at the Grammy Awards on Sunday night will go down in history as a pivotal cultural moment. Yes, the “horror movie-inspired performance” that Sam Smith and Kim Petras came up with was designed to get as much attention as possible. They wanted people like me to write about it, and that is exactly what I am doing. But just because they were seeking attention does not change the fact that their performance was unspeakably evil. And it also does not change the fact that millions of their fans absolutely adored it. We have gotten to a point where our culture openly celebrates wickedness, and that is a very dangerous place to be.
