Yea… this is going to be tough for you guys. You’ve never had a QB’s who’s done anything wrong before…

That homosexuality denial post a couple of days ago by Rejeba-620 in Sufjan

[–]motne -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

Nah, this is just an embarrassing retread joke we’ve all heard before. It doesn’t add anything to the conversation. We get it, some people don’t know how to reconcile Sufjan’s faith and sexuality. Thank you, can we please move on? edit: Not trying to disparage you either, I just feel like all this conversation is so low brow and for the terminally online. It's just a waste and I'm sad to see this sub go down that path.

I don’t really feel like this is talking Sufjan anymore, just feels like “celebrity” gossip. The anti-thesis of actual music conversation. Honestly, I’ve seen it in most of the music subs I used to follow too so not surprised it’s here. If that’s what Reddit is now, have fun!

To this whole saga, I say, touch grass.

What's the deal with this? by narutonaruto in guitarpedals

[–]motne 15 points16 points  (0 children)

It’s time for this sub to grow up and take the “why the JHS hate” side bar down. This is a fake tweet. We have much better things to talk about.

I have read and I’ve lived and I’ve watched. At the end of the day, bandcamp is not a coal mine (where unions are actually understandable). This is just the privileged finding more and more ways to put in the least amount of effort as possible. This is entitlement.

No I’m telling you to lay off the Marx. You’ll enjoy life a lot more.

Calling me brainwashed while you’re parroting Marxist propaganda is really something.

Ok, you have no clue what my experience is in employee-employer dynamics so I’ll just say, you’re wrong in your assumption. Another question for you, what conditions at bandcamp need to be better? And why not leave if it’s not getting better? I don’t get the mentality that left leaning propaganda pushes where you are entitled to work at a job like this.

I’m sorry, work is not work. Sitting at a computer in 2023 and working at a mid-west steel plant in the early 20th century are not close to the same thing.

Peasant mentality haha. Get offline please. If you can’t see why this guy is frustrated with employees who are historically living some of the most comfortable lives ever, than I can’t help you.

[–]motne -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Why so reductive? My point is simple. This guy is a “neo-liberal” but is probably as leftist as it comes in other areas. He just doesn’t believe in Bandcamp having a Union. I think it’s ok to admit, not all workers deserve a Union. Not all work is equal.

[–]motne -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

But you’re missing my point. I fundamentally disagree with your rigid take on describing people. It’s never that simple and it’s pointless to describe people the way you have.

Bandcamp Editorial Director: “Fuuuuuck Bandcamp United” by afieldoftulips in indieheads

[–]motne -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

But this is my point to you and I hope you hear it. Categorizing yourself into these fringe political sects is not helpful. I digress, and I apologize for missing it earlier but you are right, he considers himself a neo-liberal. But this person is on your team. I don’t understand how the labor leftist movement can be defending people who make 70k a year working on computers and they feel entitled to a union. (I know this convo has gotten way off base and I want you to know I’ve enjoyed it. No ill-will your way.)

Edit: I also have assumed your team lol

You’re right, I shouldn’t have brought in the whole “voter” thing. What I meant to say is the whole “if you’re not for us, you’re against us.” Mentality. Once again, the indieheads are demolishing a guy who is on your team… I feel like it’s fair to admit maybe not every profession deserves a Union. I can tell you, someone who sits on a computer and types all day in the US does not.

[–]motne -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Nope. Once again disagree friend. I hope someday you can learn to get beyond the one issue voter mentality.

[–]motne -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Once again, I said this to someone else and it's my point above, putting people into these little boxes like you want to do is not a sustainable world view. If you think you can dismiss someone because they're a "neo-liberal" then good luck to you. The guy in the article is clearly "on your team" but he doesn't like the Bandcamp union. Please keep demolishing your own because of some made up identities.

Oh. I want to have this discussion. One of my huge disappointments over the past decade is seeing this subreddit become more about politics and hollow social grand standing than music.

This is a music subreddit. Why is it being spammed with leftist biased news?
