    I guess we should do as Loudwire wants and stop listening to extremists. Starting by stop reading Loudwire.

      Thank you so much! I'm glad to be able to reach people who have different beliefs as well! (full disclosure though, I was baptized into the catholic church as a kid, but left the faith in my teens)

    I guess most people want to feel some tribal allegiance and this is what such articles exploit. It's hard to avoid all possible "but they said ..." biases, because once you hear something that you disagree with, it can stick with you and influence your decisions. They figure out what are the current trigger keywords for a certain target audience and sprinkle opinion articles with them. Then they sit back and watch the ad metrics go up.

    My line is if they have done stuff with children recently or have been caught with child porn. Just because I listen to some artists such as Graveland, nokturnal mortum, Destroyer 666, etc. I don't agree with your ideology in real life. I can still enjoy the music. On the other side I can listen to some Christian artist even though I don't agree with you or your religion. Just because I listen to someone doesn't mean I agree with them.

    Loudwire and similar metal/rock sites are left-wing-progressive oriented, and their content is meant to push those views. And if you don't agree with them you're labeled as "racist, misogynist, homophobic, transphobic", etc

      Indeed. Most free speech heroes have been from the left. None of that changes the current situation, but it does show that the left is not incompatible with freedom of speech and thought.

      Look at Dave Mustaine, he became born again christian after decades of heroin and alcohol abuse, he even didn't want to share stage with bands Dissection and Rotting Christ because of his christian beliefs, what is asshole move because many people wanted to hear them. But after all, i think he's an awesome musician and one of the best guitarrists in metal world and Megadeth much better then Metallica

      Your entire complaint is that I don't make content that will retain followers. When I tell you most people did like it, you say that's a logical fallacy, since I'm just appealing to popularity. That's plainly illogical, since lack of popularity or support was precisely your argument.

    The listener's digression has always and will always be the defining factor. A listener can love or hate the art while simultaneously having the same or opposing feelings about the artist themselves. This rule is only broken when the art and the artist become one, meaning the artist's politics and beliefs become the subject matter of the art. This FORCES the listener to choose.
    p.s. MJ's "credible" accusers had their court time and had those cases tossed for good reason.
