Similar to the recent question about artists where you can successfully separate them from their art. Are there any artists who did something so horrible, so despicable, that it has instantly invalidated all art that they have had any part in?

Except you did. You’re literally on a discussion where you posted Dave Grohl because of something he was a part of for maybe 2 or 3 years that wasn’t even his idea to begin with while ignoring everything he’s done for 20+ years since.

And now you’re being dishonest about it.

Foo Fighters used to be real down with the whole AIDS denialism, even financially supporting it.

See that?

where I said used to? in past tense? as in not current?

And now you’re being dishonest about it.

My friend. I really wish you would step away from the computer and take a slow, deep breath. I'm sorry you cant handle your favorite person doing something bad, but its no reason for you to be this upset and go around inventing whole narratives as justification to project your anger at me.

Why does it always have to go to extremes immediately with you people? They are not “my favorite person”. None of them. You are not my friend. Not in the slightest. I’m not inventing a narrative. It is a fact that this was all done at Nate’s request and that the amount of time the support existed is dwarfed by the amount of time they’ve supported AIDS education after realizing it was a mistake. You’re the one basically saying it’s unforgivable, that people can’t change their minds, and are inventing a narrative. You’re just projecting. Stop. Just admit that you mischaracterized it and that what you said wasn’t accurate and be done with it.

Sure buddy. Whatever you need to believe to sleep at night. If I need to be the big bad evil man for that, then you make me whatever you need me to be.

Just calm down so you don't put yourself in the ER for christmas.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

LOL. Yeah… you’re the big bad evil end guy in all of our lives. You’re more delusional than I thought.

I’m not your friend, you narcissist. The only time I even acknowledge you exist is when I’m on the toilet taking a dump.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 10 months ago (1 children)

You're just a big ol' ball of cuddly delight, arent you.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Maybe you need to calm down. I can’t believe you’re getting so worked up over the Foo Fighters.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Yes, Clearly, I'm the one thats all in a rage over it.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I know… I just can’t understand why.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 10 months ago (1 children)

One of the mysteries of life, pal.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

I guess so. Try to think clearly before you post something next time and don’t get so angry so quickly.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

You're not a big bad whatever, just an idiot.
