I heard the full Bob Vylan stream on Saturday by chance. The most shocking part wasn't the media-savvy 'Death to the IDF' chant – but the track where he declared peaceful protest pointless and that violence is the answer.
"We're not pacifist punks, we're violent punks' he started before ripping apart non-violent protest. It was the most shocking thing I've seen at a festival long-tied to CND & pacifism. He even threw shade at Martin Luther King. I don't want that Overton shift.
