*NSYNC REUNION 2025 -- cancelled b/c of Blake Lively & Luigi Mangione ??? why celebrities matter!!

Just like with *NSYNC, the fact that women support Luigi Mangione is weaponized by the media, permeating social consciousness. Blake Lively's complaint on Justin Baldoni describes tactics used to shape public perception. And that it works. Those same public relations techniques were used twenty years ago when Justin Timberlake went solo -- and are used to this day to diminish *NSYNC, affecting public perception, which will be used by Sony, RCA, LiveNation, and more to justify not giving us one. Pay attention to the alleged *NSYNC fans screaming on social media and online forums that *NSYNC's name isn't good enough to stand on its own (for example, adding the word "Deadpool" to the title of "Bye Bye Bye.") This is how the baseline of reasonableness gets pushed and pushed into insanity. We will look at news and social commentary from 2002 and compare it to what is written in 2024 regarding *NSYNC and Justin Timberlake. *NSYNC has been increasingly mischaracterized over time. Why do we celebrate Timberlake going solo and call him innovative? In reality, he represents status quo. In reality, he was used to undermine women's voices for decades. If PR can obliterate a famous blonde white woman billionaire with pretty privilege right in front of our eyes, would you have enough resources like her to make legal recourse a viable option?
