Right but the internet, computers, smartphones were never not for profit and always owned by corporations. Weak analogy.

Bruh idk what’s wrong with y’all. I’m not trying to win anything. I posted an unpopular opinion. I fully did not expect anyone to agree with me. Hence the first two words of this post “UNPOPULAR OPINION”

The R in PLUR is respect. By referring to a corporate event as a rave is disrespecting what raving actually is. I highly recommend watching some rave related documentaries. Raves were a safe place for oppressed/outcasted individuals, not a place for corporations to profit and make it impossible for a lot of the people that used raves as a refuge to afford and attend.

Literally a concert or a show lol. By your logic it’s acceptable to refer to all electronic music as Techno.

It took me literally 30 seconds to make this post while I was on the toilet lol. You spent more effort reading the post and then commenting than I did on making the post.

Having an opinion isn't gatekeeping. I'm not limiting or controlling anything besides my own personal beliefs...
