@crucial that quote is from 1995. They played last played it in the US in 2019
Keith Richards wants to play it
"Richards added: “I don’t want to get into conflict with all of this s**t ... but I’m hoping that we’ll be able to resurrect the babe in her glory somewhere along the track.”
So yeah, whatever mate

I didn't say Jagger's quote was recent, just that it's what he thinks.
So who has forced them to stop playing it? -
@crucial Nah In the same article that @mariner4life quotes Keef from Jagger says they've played it every night since 1970 and they might put it back in.
Slavery, Rape, Whipping, Cunnilingus, Heroin. What's got the snowflakes so agitated? Sounds like a lot of the 70's to me - well not the slavery but the rest for sure.

Yep. "Jagger added: “We’ve played ‘Brown Sugar’ every night since 1970, so sometimes you think, ‘We’ll take that one out for now and see how it goes.’ We might put it back in. "
So as far as I can tell no one has told them to take it out or influenced them for PC reasons.

The article I had linked to earlier, provided some evidence Richards did feel pressure, via the original article it linked to
You picked up on that, huh?” Richards said when asked why they’re not playing the tune. “I don’t know. I’m trying to figure out with the sisters quite where the beef is. Didn’t they understand this was a song about the horrors of slavery? But they’re trying to bury it. At the moment I don’t want to get into conflicts with all of this s—.” He laughed in his signature raspy fashion. “But I’m hoping that we’ll be able to resurrect the babe in her glory somewhere along the track.”
I don't know who the "sisters" are though..

Pretty poor that his other documentary is being pulled. I hope the Netflix CEO sticks to his guns, although I’ll not be surprised if he caves into the extremists

The question (almost) everybody is asking: Is a lesbian transphobic if she does not want to have sex with trans women?

Perhaps it's because they're mingers and look too much like blokes

When firms go woke and embrace "diversity" and gender-fluidity, they find it easy to meet gender targets. I guess no-one saw this one coming...
Equality row in the city over plans to let firms include legally male staff who identify as women in gender roll call that is designed to close pay gap City firms have been wrapped up in an equality row after it was revealed diversity proposals will allow companies to include transgender women in their gender roll calls. Equality targets will require more than a thousand of Britain's biggest companies to close the gender pay gap. But the proposals define a woman the same way as LGBTQ campaign group Stonewall rather than the way gender is usually recognised under UK law.

"Trans women"
You fucking transphobe. How dare you use such an exclusive label.
I suggest "Non-birthing birthing-person".

How will a group that is likely at most 0.5-1% (I would say less in an employment context) significantly affect gender targets, especially when an increasing percentage of trans people identify as men?
