why do so many discussions turn contentious?

Say builder3, I don't at all share your take on the No Noise comment. Please read his/her first paragraph again. Nowhere is disagreement itself (like we are having here) called out. Nope...as I see it, the focus in this case is meant to be on those whose writings clearly demonstrate that they are all about themselves, performers of sorts before an audience of faceless foils. The medium in this case just happens to be an Audiogon forum. Anyway, Happy Listening, all! From 'The Horse Has Left The Barn', Chapter 1... "I doubt my writing this will change anything, but, like most social media, people writing to others without facing them does not bring out the best, sadly......" |

I liked to watch sports as a get away for all the political bs on the news and tv. As soon as sports brought in the politics thanks to espn I quite watching sports. Whats left music, yes we all know through history musicians have made political statements but the difference was that music was trying to unite the people to push back against a tyrannical government. Difference now is that instead of uniting they are intent in dividing us and most modern musicians are now supporting the tyrannical governments. Case in point U2 I use to enjoy their music but tried to watch a concert and turned it off 30 min in. Was not going to listen to a billionaire tell me that everything in the world is my fault because I have worked my ass off to be where I am today and I do not want to give my hard earned earning to dead beats or billionaire politicians. I do enjoy this forum and when a link turns I just move on to the next one. Once there is no next one I will be done with the forum! Angry old man alert. |
I agree. I thought this was a forum set up to share knowledge and for those who want to learn more to ask questions. Instead, when someone asks a question someone seeks an opportunity to strike make them feel stupid for asking a question. Eventually, those who are seeking knowledge become afraid to ask another question. I think the moderator who notices these responses should warn that individual to stop. If after that warning they do it again they should be removed. |
