Funny you say that because you decided to make a joke out of me and the conversation so clearly we are not on the same page and don’t ever say again that we are
And I'm not against educating instances where it is useful, but 1) it wasn't that kind of situation and 2) when it comes off as "let me stop all the conversation and show how I am better than you for being more open minded" it falls flat off significance. Now, I know that isn't what was said, but that feels like how it is intended, which is where I think a lot of this is stemming from. I think a healthier way to go about it would have been something like "I wish Emma Ruth Rundle got more credit for her work on this song, and her other music is great too, etc, etc"
If the guest vocalist had been Nathan of All Get Out, and I had said exactly the same thing “I really like how they used a guest vocalist”, do you think poster would have posted, “His name is Nathan Hussey”? Since I was talking about Thrice, I kept it Thrice related. Since I never said “female” or “male” guest vocalist, it indicates that I consider them as equals....guest vocalists. People try and find things that aren’t there sometimes.
Okay.. I mean I like that artist and I’m glad she’s getting a ton of credit for her work on this album and her work on her record from last year. I support her and her music, but I also don’t think someone is wrong for mentions a guest vocalist and not being specific about it. Especially in a thread where Emma has already received a ton of credit for her work on the song.
Exactly. This poster didn’t have any comments in her latest album thread either. So it feels opportunistic. I even said her work with Thrice inspired me to listen to one of her songs. I think most people are always good with honest music recommendations. People aren’t always ok with insults and insinuation.
Stop comparing men and women in rock music as if they both have equal opportunity because they very clearly do not, unfortunately.
Also, whether or not I have posts in her album thread or not should not determine the legitimacy or validity of my position. Get the fuck out of here with that weakass argument
youre a fuckin moron. someone praises a guest vocalist on a track and youre all playing hero because someone didnt mention their name? as if it isnt a normal thing to say "love the guest vocalist on this track". and making the very bold assumption that the person doing so is like not as pro feminism as you just because they arnt trolling around the internet searching for somewhere where someone didnt specify if the vocalist was a man or a woman. fuck off. This straight up goes against the wishes of some female musicians. there have been female artists that have been very vocal about the fact that they get bugged when everyone feels the need to preface everything they do with the fact theyre female. but again, youre an ass hole. youll find something in this response of mine to gather youre dumb ass friends together and say "**GASSSP** look at this yucky mean post!!!" go ahead. find a reason to manipulate shit people say. nobody cares. get off the internet and do something actually productive to raise equality awareness in your community.
Well instead of promoting her and her thread on Chorus, you are in here. Personally, that seems biased to me that you won’t bother to make a comment on her music including a new album, but you’ve found the time in the pst two days to say you only listen to Yellowbelly on M/M, which was released in 2011 in a Palms thread.
oooohhhh if you wanna talk about toxicity let’s bust out this classic post from the Pinegrove thread you’re in no position high road anyone
The doubling down in here from you @Lazarus is getting super annoying. Just stop please. This back and forth when everything has been explained in perfect English is pointless. No one is doing what you are saying. There are real cases of what you are describing out there that you can go battle. No one is doing that here. How can you expect anyone to ever have a conversation with you again when you are being this irrational? There is no winning with this. I think this person gave some great advice for everyone that I'll have to take going forward.
Oh right my bad I forgot simply calling something a good song is a toxic thing on Chorus. Nice gotcha moment bud
lol dont play dumb. saying something is a good song isn’t inherently good or bad, yes. openly supporting Brand New in the context of the conversation that was happening in the Pinegrove thread though, maybe my biggest yikes yet. is it that hard for you to understand that or are you just a moron?
Context is a thing Weird how it’s always the same guys that get in the mix of this stuff and pretty much always die on the same hills. Instead of trying to have a discussion y’all just pile on one user and call them a moron
Or people just crawl out from under a rock just to attack people without having an adult conversation.
Teebs deleted a post saying @Lazarus was a previously banned user with a history of starting fights and it was best to ignore them and just move on. Unfortunately, it was deleted before I could quote it. In Progress
Correct. It's funny how the same users never post or are involved in discussion until this fake call out stuff pops up and then they are magically here to talk down to everyone. My hat is off to them.
Yes... context is a thing.. so why was someone wrong for making a list of vague things that thrice did differently on their album and not getting specific about one aspect of said list.
You are a celeb on here my dude! I'm checking Wikipedia to see if you are there. But in all honestly, I just want to talk Thrice again and someone needs to reply to my Alchemy Index instrumental post so we can gush about how awesome that would be.
