Metal is still mostly good, so I'm fine.
But some of the older bands have changed over the years && now they suck, so there's that as well. -
@antigermgerm Sure, the guy was the main one behind the push against Napster. Still, there are other good bands beside Metallica.
You can enjoy the art even though the artist is a scumbag.
It's just that very reason why I still listen to 'As I Lay Dying'. -
DevLopMint02dIs this permission to start listening to Lostprophets again? It doesn't feel right, but I enjoyed the music.

@D-4got10-01 I think art should be contextualised in hindsight. That said you don't have to go back that far for homophobia to be widely considered acceptable in media. And not much further back from that for sexism. Like 2010 for homophobia? 1990 for sexism? That's really recent. Like, that's tv reruns of obscure TV now.

@atheist Different people, different opinions.
I have no problems w/ people rejecting art when the artist is fucked up.
As for me, I detach the artist from the art.
I still like the old Disney animations. -
@atheist I mean we make fun of everything else why can't we make fun of homosexuals also
-
@jestdotty the balance of power. If it's a show with positive gay representation, jokes about them are fine but not every joke and the joke shouldn't be *that* they're gay.

jestdotty693622h@atheist ok and snobby techbros make jokes about you sucking and nothing else
pick up artist incels make women jokes and nothing else, can't even view them as human
everybody does it for their chosen target group
the whole act of "some groups are special" is fucked up and there to cause bigger divides
and what do I do if a chick is making fun of me not being a chick like her? HR pretends it's not happening that's what happens
faux protections. retarded
better you don't walk in there expecting people to like every one of your traits. one of them might just annoy someone
and let's not get started with how it's ok to dehumanize "conspiracy theorists"... the politicians and therefore effectively the government participate in that one. don't you dare wanna drink raw milk, why the fuck you trying to avoid heavy metals and petroleum in your food. don't pretend nutrition exists here just eat this statin pill. if you don't we take your rights away cuz ur a danger to urself and others!
telling the health and sanity of a society by if they can still make music or not =-=
like how do you fuck up and release garbage, honestly. might have a good part but it's like... you didn't even see it?
