@Joe - Go back to the beginning. I have been defending the fact that Wolf has been inferring that there are true metalheads, and people who like other stuff that he doesn't like and metal aren't really "true" fans. This is a an easy way of thinking that humans get wrapped in, which I won't get into here because it leads to inappropriate discussions for this forum.
Anyways, Lemmy's opinions were used as a go-ahead to start trashing certain genres of music, that many on this forum like and will come here to defend them, just as you have the right to trash them. There are plenty of quotes from this thread that you can read that show that. I was hoping to see some kind of backing behind their viewpoints, instead of "Lemmy speaks the truth! See?" Like what he likes is some sort of truth. What if Lemmy actually liked the Beibs? What would you do then? Call him a traitor? Or would you make up some imaginary excuse as to why he may have said that. It's all ridiculous.
Wolf can infer all he likes just as I see you inferring as well. I don't have a problem with that.
I guess your idea of inappropriate is different from mine. I see you as getting wrapped in this discussion. You're here posting in it and making your opinions. That's blatantly apparent.
You see Lemmy's opinions as a go ahead to start trashing certain genres of music. Absolutely. People agree with his opinions and are going to support them with examples of thier own. I think that is a given.
I don't think any less of you for your opinions as to defending your favourite genres of music as you would trash others you don't particular like if that was the case. That doesn't bother me in the least though I see it bothering you. There's nothing I can do about that. I have no control over that situation. That's your stuff. Not mine.
I do see and agree with some members view points on both sides of the discussion. You're asking me or saying that "like what he likes is some sort of truth"? I don't know what he says is the truth or not. Only Lemmy knows. You'll have to ask him.
"What if Lemmy actually liked the Biebs? What would you do then". Nothing. I think if they get along and are friends, thats great.
No. I wouldn't call him a traitor.
No. I wouldn't make up an imaginary excuse.
"It's all ridiculous." That's your opinion.
