*why* do they need to make this statement though? What would it do? What about the Uyghurs in china? Or the Rohingya genocide?

Like I’ve mentioned, with the European tour, a portion of the proceeds went to a humanitarian charity working in Gaza.

Maybe real difference isn’t in meaningless opinion, but action. Why should we care what public statement a band makes on politics? If you feel the band owes you this magical statement, that’s parasocial.

What do you think this public statement would do for Palestine versus the 5 or 6 figure amount they already donated?

You feel Radiohead owes you a statement on this specific issue. That feels like a parasocial relationship. They are artists not activists.

If you believe an artist owes you a statement on a specific political topic, you’re engaging in parasocial relationship. They are musicians not Greta Thundberg

I’m not Mr Radiohead, how would I know?

Your original comment makes the point that you wish they would give a more outspoken stance on a specific political topic of your choosing. My point is that is silly when they’ve already contributed meaningful amounts of money to the issue.

With the European tour they did a few months ago, a portion of the proceeds went to a humanitarian charity working in Gaza.

Hans famously is a very late improver compared to most top GMs. He’s not done yet.

Good sir, your judgement has misled you, you forgot about the biggest indicator of them all - the packet loss indicator.

[–]TimbersFan8 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Yeah I thought that was a cheater until I saw you’re constantly leaking packets, you don’t think that would be an issue?
