What? You were misquoted?

I don't think so. Isn't being forced to keep "that ignorant shit to yourself" the same as censorship? Since when is professing the value of muzzling a persons opinion a virtue of free speech?

And I am still waiting for an IQ level that makes voicing your opinion acceptable. Clearly I must be failing since you don't agree with me.

Check your PM, I think we have subjected the board to our little tiff long enough.

You did not misquote me. What I said amounts to self-censorship, not censorship. There is a big difference. I am not advocating stopping people from saying anything.

Let's bring this into the real world. If I were to hang out with people that are good, but have racist views, I would tell them to "keep that shit to yourself." I don't want to hear ignorant views. The same applies to this situation.

We self-censor at work, at home, at school, but yet, we don't see it as a horrible thing. We even self-censor on this forum. I don't know how many times I've chosen to keep my mouth shut because it's not worth arguing about. To say that some thing that perfectly fits the criteria of music isn't music is ignorance. So excuse me if I don't want someone to say something if I know they are wrong.

Seriously...this a F***ing bulletin board. People have responded to the issues/questions brought up in the course of a discussion. Racist BS is already against the rules of this board so it's a non-issue. Discussion of music (or what constitutes music) is actually a pertinent topic given the theme of this board.

"Denial" isn't just a river in Egypt. You have professed that people that don't agree with you (you know, the "ignorant" ones) should not post here. Evidently "self censorship" revolves around you being the "self" which starts creeping to the Godwin Law. Conveniently, you still haven't answered my questions. I am done here.

Take it to PM, you are losing your credibility with every post now.

You don't agree that racist views should be curtailed on here by the person that would write them? Even if we have rules, it won't stop some like that troll matt from spewing racist shit.

Now you are putting words into my mouth. I have never said people that don't agree with me should stop posting.

What I have said is that saying "It's not music" is an ignorant view, and people should keep it to themselves, because they come off as morons. I am not going to engage in censorship, if you would like to look like an ass, that's your own business.

I don't think you know what self is, do you? How can I be the "self" for someone else?

My, my. You certainly aren't the same person as the one that PM'd me before. Are you just trying to look tough? My credibility is safe, unlike some two faced people.

How about this for a change. Let's agree to disagree, shut the fuck up, and start talking about something more worthwhile...

...Clocker Bob, please supply a subject.

Why discourage the discussion?


Can we really call this a discussion at this point?

As much as anything else around the internet, no?
