I think an interesting addition would be the sexualization of pop music through the 00s and 10s. The other child post referenced the Janet Jackson super bowl fiasco. There was plenty of outrage for Britney Spears and I’d say even more for somes like WAP and Cardi B. While I think there is an argument to be made this started much earlier than the 00s there has been a lot of “outrage” more recently than I remember.
I also think it’s interesting that pretty much all of these themes have existed in music for the last 50 years or so but for a song to get real outrage it really needs to penetrate the ether. For example, the company selling these shoes sold ones with holy water in the heels, that a very small, in comparison, number of people knew about. I’d consider something like that sacrilegious, but I didn’t hear of any public outrage.
