Well, jesus then: society better get right on that. Since surely the people that support a scene clearly have nothing to do with it.

You'n yer "nope."

OR ACTUALLY *be* A NAZI, AND FEEL OKAY ABOUT KILLING YOU!

"Sometimes," yes. But that's not what you said.

Among so many other things, it's a junior high-schooler's point of view: Metal is Supposed to be Evil. Okay, sure: an entertaining simulacrum of evil, for Entertainment Purposes Only.
But when it turns into actual Naziism, that's when the rest of us call bullshit, and rightfully so.
Much like if there were a genre of…

"Nazism has every right to exist in metal?"
Jesus, even for an idiot, yer stupid.

"However, Blerg and Schlerg are still allowed…"

Right behind him in line though; a guy with some pasteurized cheese was tryin' to get in. NEVAIR! His passport was stamped..

God, I hate it when stupid people attempt irony.

I suppose they're just skirting around what they feel the real message is, which is: The Rest of Us Just Feel You're Not Smart Enough to Know Real Naziism when You See It.
And I gotta say it; after this comment thread, I'm saying they're too busy with their persecution complexes to even consider the question.

Again, nobody on the left has seriously used the word "communism" since the fucking '30's, but has that stopped every bedwetter on earth from assuming that's what the new hip thing is? Nope.

BUZZ! YOUR FRIEND IS HEEERE!

ANOTHER ARGUMENT WINNER! BAM! AV CLUB, DON'T NEVER NEED TO WRITE NO NOTHIN' EVER AGAIN! SEEMS THERE'S SOME EQUIVALENT ILL ELSEWHERE, AND THAT AT SOMEHOW NEGATES YOUR POINT!

So THERE-FORE…

Uh, what scene *is* open to outside input? I mean, after reading all of this comment thread, I just wanna find a group of people who don't immediately assume the entire world is trying to kill them because one guy on a website wrote an opinion piece that seems fairly borne out by the facts.

No, YOU TAKE YOU WORD FOR IT!

My EDM/Klezmer/Gamelan project has been openly calling for the extermination of the Portuguese for years! And do we get censured? Hell no! Corporate retreats!

Also, just about anyone's gonna question that "music of peace" thing.

Ah. And I may have gotten the title wrong above, but wasn't he the one who says the thing in that movie about the need to "erase the semitic origins" from "european culture?" And how the dipshit making the film doesn't even go, "uh…what now?"

Ah! It's Progressives now who are the problem! GOT IT!
