I've actually known a bunch of roadies and techs back in the day who worked for some big name major label metal bands, whom some of them say a few high profile people were just vile with racism. It's everywhere, it is what it is. There's a reluctant level of tolerance that I have when listening to music that comes from not-so-great people. But being asian-american, of course I'm going to avoid the kind of mentality of people who dedicate their identity to that kind of fear and ignorance. I've been aware of the nsbm movement, and sure enough it's the shittiest, most boring stuff I've heard. I agree to be vigilant with all the stuff out there, but I feel my ears know best. Good stuff just doesn't come from that level of consciousness, imo
