On January 6, 2021, Ariel Pink and John Maus both attended Donald Trump’s big rally in Washington, DC — a spectacle that became a whole other thing. Within a few days, Ariel Pink was dropped by Mexican Summer, his label. Soon afterward, Pink was also accused of physical and sexual abuse, and he went on Tucker Carlson to complain about “cancel culture.” Apparently, Pink has decided that the right-wing media sphere is where he wants to remain, though he doesn’t look too happy about it.
