Far-left grunge Music pioneer Eddie Vedder blasted Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker at a concert Saturday for daring to tell wives and mothers that it is okay to focus on their children instead of giving their lives to careers.
The Pearl Jam frontman ranted about the 28-year-old during a concert at The MGM Grand in Las Vegas.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, after the rock group Deep Sea Diver opened up the concert, Vedder commented on two of the women in the band ā singer Jessica Dobson and keyboardist Patti King.
āThatās some good men and good women making up a great band,ā the 59-year-old said of his opening act.
Vedder said the two women āmust not have believed that ādiabolical lieā that women should take pride in taking a back seat to their man.ā
The singer continued his meltdown on Butker, who is a devout Christian, by further mischaracterizing the NFL starās comments from a commencement speech just over a week ago at Benedictine College in Atchison, Kansas.
Vedder said there is every reason to take āpride in homemakingā and described running a household as āone of the hardest jobs.ā
āBut you shouldnāt not follow a dream because you think that youāre gonna benefit by giving up your dreams,ā Vedder added. āI couldnāt understand the logic. So Iām questioning it in public right now.ā

āThe irony was that the football player ā kicker ⦠You see, the kicker doesnāt have the pads because he doesnāt tackle anybody or get tackled,ā Vedder said.
āBut he was telling men, āDonāt forget to puff up your chest and be more masculine,āā the singer continued. āāDonāt lose your masculinity.ā The irony was that when he was saying that, he looked like such a p****.ā
The singer concluded, āThereās nothing more masculine than a strong man supporting a strong woman.ā
Butker of course never told any women at Benedictine College to take a backseat to men but that rather they should feel empowered if they choose to put family before a career.
āHow many of you are sitting here now, about to cross this stage, and are thinking about all the promotions and titles you are going to get in your career?ā Butker said to Catholic students at the school before he asked them not to buy into the leftās ādiabolical liesā that they must become corporate drones or their lives are meaningless.
āSome of you may go on to lead successful careers in the world,ā Butker added. āBut I would venture to guess that the majority of you are most excited about your marriage and the children you will bring into this world.ā
The Georgia Tech alum, who is currently the target of a cancel culture campaign, choked up and concluded by praising his wife, Isabelle Butker, for taking care of their two young children.
