Obviously the Twitter outrage was way out of line, but I'll lay out the thinking as a Mitski fan: Mitski releases Be The Cowboy, with the single "Nobody", and it's her real shot into the mainstream, and goes on to get Pitchfork's Album of the Year for 2018. And I think the Mitski fanbase is particularly bizarre in how closely they identify with her.[1] So for Mac Demarco to release Here Comes the Cowboy, with the lead single "Nobody", right after all that, feels weird. Obviously it's a coincidence and not a big deal, but I understand why people thought it was worth mentioning.
