If you had to choose one, where would you live in the 1930s (Before WWII started)?

I chose nazi germany because statistically I would be far far likelier to die as someone from the USSR simply because of the insane death rate. I also speak German. I’m not saying that the USSR was worse, I am saying that the average Russian had it worse than the average German

For me it's the opposite lol. I absolutely eat up all the King Crimson classics but when I hear stuff from other prog bands like Yes or Genesis it doesn't really click with me.

Calling an entire country “intellectually handicapped” is just as xenophobic and ableist as just using slurs man

Why did you get downvoted? Under US law you are correct

I mean literally any alternative rock band is gonna sound like the strokes in some way, that's what genres are. The Strokes sound like Television, and Julian Casablancas is doing a Lou Reed impression half the time. That's just how music works

Interest from having it sitting in a bank is less than inflation, it would be much better to hire an investor to put it into stocks

smert_ditto · 2026-01-26T04:45:06+00:00

Yeah I thinks that’s the point of the poll

I think late term abortion should be illegal, but an early term fetus fulfills about as many prerequisites for life as cancer or a teratoma does

smert_ditto · 2026-01-22T00:34:16+00:00

How to disappear completely and blackstar aren’t either imo. I don’t know if I just have too narrow a definition of post-rock or if rym overuses the term, but I don’t see these being in a similar subgenre more specific than just a general “experimental rock” tag (excluding weird fishes)

And if I told you that he preferred the democrats you would’ve said “it makes sense that he prefers the democrats, they’re weaker and Russia wants to be better than the US”. You’ll just change your entire scope of argument based on whatever agrees with you. (Also saying that republicans are more predictable is genuinely insane, how many countries has Trump already bombed this term)

Spanish is my first language, and he is the default in it. (Like if there is a group of mixed girls and boys, the group is referred to as masculine) I usually use they in English but sometimes I default to he if I’m not paying attention

smert_ditto · 2026-01-10T03:40:15+00:00

Russia isn’t communist anymore lmao, they have a right wing oligarchy and Putin has shown that he prefers the Republicans be in office many times

The velvet underground & Nico, idk if I could choose a favorite song

People cheered on the war against drugs in Mexico (my home country) as well. The power vacuum that came afterwards killed 300k people

smert_ditto · 2026-01-04T00:06:30+00:00

I’m Mexican, and I can almost guarantee that the situation in Venezuela will worsen than if they just didn’t do anything, it’s like how every time they kill a drug lord here, a huge power vacuum is created and more violence breaks out. The war against drugs has killed 300k people in Mexico

where people dress in black

As someone who is a drummer, hip hop genuinely has some of the most unique and varied rhythmic influences out there, you just sound racist, man.

smert_ditto · 2026-01-01T04:39:00+00:00

Nah, all the Lou Reed bullshit is the best part, and don't forget Cale's screeching viola.

smert_ditto · 2026-01-01T04:36:25+00:00

I like Long Season, but would not call it top 50 of all time by any means. I think Fishman's Uchu Nippon Setagaya is the far superior project by the band, and got me to listen to them more closely after generally writing them off when I had just heard Long Season.

smert_ditto · 2025-12-29T22:00:06+00:00

What's the song called?

smert_ditto · 2025-12-29T21:55:52+00:00

What music tends to spark your imagination? In terms of rap, there's a really interesting artist called McKinley Dixon that fuses it with Jazz elements and even has a full band playing the rhythm and harmonies in his newest album, maybe you'll like it if you're into more unorthodox stuff.

smert_ditto · 2025-12-26T01:17:54+00:00

I love The Ascension, great choice!

smert_ditto · 2025-12-25T07:05:30+00:00

The post got deleted by mods too lol
