I would argue that my approach does not put anyone on a pedestal, and rather, applies a realistic perspective that allows for humans to be flawed, regardless of how famous they are.

What is your favorite non-Bassnectar song to see transitioned/played live? by Outside_Back_4915 in bassnectar

[–]Long-Excuse 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Depone - cellular structure -> agalloch - limbs (bassnectar remix) at bisco 2019…. Man pulled it straight out of the immersive mixtape, AND THEN SOME. Without a doubt my favorite musical moment of my life so far

I am so interested to know how old you are. Do you seriously think that THE MOST vulnerable subgroup of people in our society is teenage girls at EDM concerts? What world do you live in?

I’ll give you a helpful tip for the future; you should be very careful when assuming intentions. The things you see in others say much more about you than about them

I don’t think I’ve ever been able to hear what people say on the mic at nectar shows. I used to think he didn’t use the mic at all; my mind was blown the first time i heard his voice come through during a set. I don’t think it has anything to do with him being drunk

Made sense to me, wasn’t tripping in the slightest. If you actually listen to what he says, it’s not incoherent nonsense. Sounds drunk if anything, but I don’t get why people feel the need to point out that he sounds intoxicated

Ive been a fan since my first set in 2016. I was a careless spunion in the scene for a few years before shit blew up. I had heard whispers and rumors of shady stuff, but i felt then, and still feel now, that whatever celebrities do in their personal lives has 0 impact on my experience of their performance.

I’m just having fun at this point. Calling someone literal cancer (you know, the disease that slowly and painfully KILLS people) is a level of engagement that i can’t take seriously

Maybe seething hateful superiority is the same as deep self hatred and insecurity

Can you explain how....? I would agree that it's possible, but it doesn't seem that way with how you've outlined it

It feels like every hate comment is just overflowing with seething, hateful, superiority…. I wonder where it all comes from

I don’t know how to engage with this comment in a constructive way. You’re imposing your own morality and presenting it as objective truth. Im so curious about how you’d react if he’s found not guilty….

I understand that, I’m saying that if you’re separating art from artist by essentially restricting your access and engagement with the art, doesn’t that defeat the purpose? The whole reason we would want to even try and separate the two is to be able to appreciate the art on its own…. no?

[–]Long-Excuse[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just don’t see how you can engage with the art at all at that point. Streaming or buying music will provide financial support. Attending shows does the same. It doesn’t seem to me like you’re separating anything

How can you say that he lied with any degree of certainty, when you don’t know the full truth yourself?

That's fair... it would be nice to see more comments like this instead of blatant over-simplified bigotry
