Unpopular opinion time (super alpha no pony edition)

@Penguin Lagann  
I didn’t reply to that post.

@Josh103  
My bad.

@Twi Clown  
I say it’s because of an Onion articular about a pure cinnamon roll that was too pure for this world that started it.

True crime nerd ?

I’m against the idea of having a parent raise their child by plopping them down in front of a screen just so they can learn or keep them quiet. That’s just bad parenting and shows how much you care about your own children.

@Commune  
Hmm?

@ILoveMyoozik  
I don’t blame parents for having their kids watch TV or something online so they can rest up, but the should at least know what their child/children are watching and doing what they can to make sure that they don’t run into something they shouldn’t.

@Meanlucario  
That I don’t have a problem with, I’m just saying that parents should spend time with their children more if they start to act all fussy so they can properly raise them.

@ILoveMyoozik  
Yep.

Mumble Rap community is far less cancer than the Techno community, especially the fucking German Techno community

@Broken Adam  
Got me intrigued, got any good examples both cancer from both?
 
(This is my first time hearing either community described as “cancer”, but then again, I’m not exactly one who listens to much of either of genres of music.)

@Broken Adam  
Any community that isn’t the pop, rap or country community are usually shitty. Almost always filled with elitists who flaunt around their love of rock, metal, EDM or oldies like some type of badge and shit others for listening to things that isn’t their genre. And don’t even get me started on those who hate popular music just because it’s popular and literally nothing else.

@SD50-2  
Berghain

@Broken Adam  
Context? Google searching shows that they’re an “exclusive” club, but I’m not sure how that fuels the toxicity of the community.

@SD50-2  
It fuels forced conformity and clique like culture which in turn leads to toxicity forward those who don’t conform and elitistic attitudes toward other genres

@Broken Adam  
Ah.

Not sorry, but music programs that don’t accept rock are on the same level of snobbery as creative writing classes that consider sci-fi, horror, and fantasy to be lesser art forms.
 
Don’t @ me.

@TheHappySpaceman  
I agree.

@TheHappySpaceman
 
As well as art or animation programs that don’t except “anime” art styles or fanart.

@Jarkes  
It’s the truth.
 
On a similar note, need I mention that last year, the Pulitzer Prize for Music, previously exclusive to classical and jazz musicians, was awarded to Kendrick Lamar, a rapper? Even those guys understand that music is evolving, so why can’t snobby music professors?

@TheHappySpaceman  
Well said

@TheHappySpaceman  
Oh yeah, they did that to his album “Damn”, and the music snobs immediately went into hysterics because of it. Music changes, deal with it, important and artistic music can also happen in mainstream recorded music, not just in classical and jazz. Personally, I feel that “To Pimp A Butterfly” should’ve deserved the Pulitzer more but close enough.

@ILoveMyoozik  
Admittedly, I say this with some bias, as someone who was rejected from a college-level music composition degree program due to the fact that I primarily write rock music, but still.

@TheHappySpaceman  
No no you’re correct. The Pulitzer Prize Academy need to understand that music isn’t always jazz or classical.
 
Also, just for that? Sounds like the one who rejected you is stuck in the 1950’s that believes that rock music is the devil’s music.

@ILoveMyoozik  
That’s what I’m saying: they do seem to understand that, though it took them a while. But music colleges still haven’t taken the hint.
 
And yeah, see my post about it in the venting thread.
