Originally posted by sothis if you dressed like a hippie, and followed values like people from that era lived by, and someone started a thread talking about how stupid it is that they dress that way, and other negative remarks, are you telling me you would not say something about it? or how about if you really liked trance, and posted also on a board dedicated to jungle (which you liked as well). and someone started a thread saying "wtf are these people thinking who like trance? there must be something wrong with that, its stupid etard candy kid music". would you again be silent? you might see me say more negative things than positive (tho i do say a lot of positive things as well), but thats because honestly, i see so much ignorance and a huge lack of diversity on this board. maybe thats because its world wide, but shit.. when someone started a thread dedicated to piercings and tattoos and i posted mine, i had people who had the audacity to respond and tell me how disgusting i (and my tattoos/piercings) were for getting them. its all about people who are used to a certain thing, who put down anything else wrong. now can you honestly tell me, that me, coming from a scene which is very similar to what the person starting this thread is talking about, should not be offended and say something? maybe for you ignorance is bliss, but for me, if i see a problem with something or blind hatred, people putting people down, etc... i sure as hell am going to say something about it. would you?

G00d way of putting it :|

Sothis, I agree with you. ..Can't judge a book by its cover (anyone?).

I'll respect the person whether he/she is a dolt or not.

I'll try to respect the person if she/he does not respect me.

I'll bring the smackdown on that person if she/he is malicious.

the last one is rare for me, I have a very long fuse to burn before it happens.

word..

and the point i keep trying to make and will continue trying to make in threads like this, is before you open your mouth and spout out hateful/ignorant shit like this, stop and realize that this is a diverse group of people who post on the board. and even tho 99% might be the same, the very type of person/lifestyle/attribute/characteristic that you are putting down, could be the same person that is reading what you are saying.

my "negativity" and "trying to find something bad in every thread" will stop when shit like this stops being posted. period. until then, ill stick up for my lifestyle, and my way of life, and putting down people in general for bullshit reasons like this when you havent even walked a day in their shoes, and put down what you dont know out of ignorance.

Ive read all your comments and 90% of you are saying that people are people " sheep ". I do not dislike Gothic ppl as they are cool people to get on with i have loads of cool wierd mates ,

jerrys final thought :

When you see a Naked man in the street is that wrong, when a child is born into this world naked is that wrong? either way you can not change nature and its causes, its man who changes nature and its man who distroys nature, what is music , how can you define what is good and bad on this earth, people change people therefore there is change.
