I had up the isolated vocal of Grace Slick singing White Rabbit. It had 1.9 million hits--I didn't monetize it because I came into the file but don't own it--and people from all over the world would listen and comment and connect, sometimes monthly stop by--it was very cool. But the some idiocy like WWE or cage-match fighters or whatever scraped my audio and made it their theme for the upcoming season of whatever retrograde "sport" it was, and some popular blogger of that milieu posted my YT link to it, which resulted in 10s of thousands of those fans flooding my White Rabbit KZbin post, jotting moronic comments (like these here), drawing down the attention of KZbin, which promptly removed the video. Those folks didn't care, but the 10s of thousands who'd become something of a community (an articles as even written about the post and posters) were forever shut out. I can't stand these professional "followers." Cliche but it truly is like lemmings charging off the cliffside.

@@lane546 I had to search, but it’s an old derogatory name for black people. That’s some super old-timey racism, and kind of shows how he felt he needed to “dominate” in a way Sly Stone for no reason other than his skin tone or because he felt he had no respect. Making a point to wear his street clothes and say he was inspired by sly’s attire even though he is arguably dressed up (although not in the white American sense) which makes it a double-slap. Choosing to answer his questions with one word responses and immediately going back to Michael. Fuck that guy. “-noun A black person, used disparagingly.

He actually had a fairly modest Afro, and only for a couple of years--1974-75. Before that for a couple of years, and after that for a couple of years, he wore his hair "natural" (and if anything a closely cropped Afro).

[@MrCarltonjsmith]

That "...shine remark..." from Peter was unnecessary and low key smart ass. James Brown would have torn Peter's head off!

[@SusanDoran]

It was pretty shocking, and would have been then too. Peter Marshall (unlike Mike Dougas) was a square and wanting very much not to be...like the Dylan song "There's something going on....but you don't know what it is....do you...?" Like Peter Marshall was trying to be cool and could see it but didn't get it. Hence his wearing sloppy clothes and dirty sneakers "instead of my usual suit" and saying he was inspired to do so by Sly, meaning he saw Sly doing his own thing instead of being in a suit, so Peter Marshall misconstrued doing HIS own thing as not "dressing up," meanwhile not realizing Sly was doing his own thing but letting his freak fly in gorgeous colors and spangles, and he WAS "dressing up" and asserting his uniqueness...not suburban mediocrity like Peter Marshall. And the "humor" about "shine" (@$$hole)....Peter Marshall could perceive there was some smart irreverent nonlinear banter going on, and there might even be allusions to race, but he did not grasp that it was not such that he could make a grotesquely racist reference...and for that to be funny. Peter Marshall struck me as being out of his depth in several respects, as well as [this is mean but probably true] not tremendously bright. And while he might have admired Sly and wanted to emulate him in many ways, he was too much of a pedestrian non-creative member of what the countercultures called the Establishment. When Mike says to Sly "He didn't mean it" Sly says "I know he didn't...I know he didn't" - both of them meaning "He's a foolish ignorant wannabe trying to impress by being 'brave' enough to be racist as a joke to a Black man's face...we'll let it go because he's unaware and slightly pathetic." Sly was amazing. Mike Douglas too. Poor Peter Marshall. Wonder whether he ever garnered more advanced consciousness?

How is blaming your trash life on jews going?

[@rossmartenak5517]

First of all, so called "Peter Marshall" isn't his real name. There was nothing wrong with his actual birth name, Ralph Pierre LaCock He obviously He obviously "sold out" his birth name because of the shallowness of the entertainment industry?! Most likely the change was made as the result of a greedy Business Manager, with perceived notions of greater recognition accompanied with monetary gains? In reality, it's also shows blatant disrespect for one's parents & their family heritage, just to possibly obtain (not earn) a greater buck?!

[@SusanDoran]

Many of those business managers had changed their own names and it served them well, so they very well could have encouraged it in not as cynical way as you're suggesting, but pragmatically if the guy wanted to be well-known and success. And Peter Marshall, for whatever his positive attributes, has always seemed to be a succeed by whatever means necessary kind of guy.

[@byHexted]

[@jairkerker2821]

It has to do with black people shining shoes for rich white people back in the day.

[@shinner65]

LMH yeah, he really coulda let it lie and no one would have said a word about it. it really didn’t have a big racial aspect to it by the 70s. it just meant something you liked a lot. and I guess in a way, if you liked something you wanted it to shine. it wasn’t meant to be derogatory to black people or anyone who shined shoes. it may have started that way in the early 20th century, but by the time of this show, it wasn’t used as a slur. More interestingly, compared to how things are today, no one got canceled or lost endorsements or their career over a simple use of a phrase.

[@MarkAhrens-HeritageFilms]

Brave joke, that shine deal.

[@SusanDoran]

If it had been funny, it might have been brave, but it was lame in terms of humor, so it was just feeble, odd, and embarrassing...like a kind who doesn't understand the grown-ups conversations trying to edge in with a belligerent joke but being rude and dumb.
