    i'm expecting no less than a 3000 word poem about sexual frustration from ding.

    would be surprised if he even allows himself to conform to such expectations. i'd expect him to just post nonsense stoned stuff. which is probably just the same anyways. if i can believe freud.

    bc this is watmm and a lot of cringe is posted on a regular basis. 

    repeatedly demanding “irrefutable evidence” of child rape on watmm dot com definitely falls into this category imo. thank you for your contribution m9

    In all fairness, it goes both ways. Claiming someone did horrific stuff asks for some strong backup, imo. And I'd consider those claims  as unnecessary as asking for irrefutable evidence on a music forum.

    Admittedly though, it's easy to make such claims in "casual" conversations. And to an extent, people should be free to do so. But once people go there (making strong claims of guilt), it's also fair to ask (demand!?) people to back-up those claims.

    And yes, that brings plenty cringe. Completely agree. But again, it goes both ways. Don't think it's fair to just point the finger towards BT. :fear:

    yeah, well that's the rub. the importance of the default state of innocence is the reason the bar for establishing guilt is high, or at least non-trivial (though there are ways to pervert that, as happens all the time). personally I wouldn't go around saying he's guilty because I can't be sure, but my suspicions remain.

    that's what i would prefer as well, btw. It's the schrodingers cat state. Both can be true. But it's better to remain impartial. Or consciously ignorant perhaps. Because you can't know. With a healthy amount of suspicion. Without being judgmental.

    The schrodingers cat metaphor makes the most sense to me. But I'm not quite sure if that idea translates well to other people.

    During what day and age was it ok to drug and rape women?

    It’s never even been somewhat common, let alone “close to the norm”.

    Not saying it was OK.

    About commonality:

    Quote

    Methaqualone became increasingly popular as a recreational drug and club drug in the late 1960s and 1970s, known variously as "ludes" or "disco biscuits" due to its widespread use during the popularity of disco in the 1970s, or "sopers" (also "soaps") in the United States and "mandrakes" and "mandies" in the United Kingdom, Australia and New Zealand. The substance was sold both as a free base and as salt (hydrochloride).

    The full transcript of his deposition was also released to the media by a court reporting service. In his testimony, Cosby admitted to casual sex, involving the recreational use of the sedative methaqualone (Quaalude), with a series of young women, and acknowledged that his dispensing the prescription drug was illegal.

    Don't think I've said anything silly, tbh. It was a popular recreational drug. If I remember correctly, he had multiple contacts with a lot of these women. Again, not saying it was OK. But I do think, you could argue the use of these drugs weren't out of the ordinary at that point in time. Even if the circumstances in which Cosby did were highly suspect. To say the least. (I don't have the facts, so I won't bother with pretending to know more)

    Is this a discussion about having a discussion? Or are we going to split hairs about something we probably largely agree on?

    They could have released him during COVID to house arrest, but he has made no efforts to reform, do therapy for sexual predators, engage in any accountability or make the slightest effort to address his victims’ suffering, remember he was doing this vile shit for half a century, more than some lifetimes. I wanted to hear he died as well, let him burn in Hell next to Jacko.

    At his age, that doesn't surprise me. Why even bother with therapy? He comes from a different day and age where stuff he did might have been close to the norm, tbh. I see this more as a societal/generational issue, than something which is purely in the hands of some individual.

    As far is I'm concerned, the question shouldn't be why he's free again. Or why he hasn't shown remorse. But the question should be why he wasn't put behind bars way earlier. Because guys doing stuff like that should be caught way sooner. Being resentful about Cosby is a waste of energy, as far as I'm concerned. Or about Jacko. Which is a completely different story, imo. Everything surrounding Jacko is wacko. Not just the man himself. I'm not going to bother to burn my fingers on that one.

    I have yet to listen to their take on LP5 and EP7. I feel like that will be the defining moment for if I keep listening to them

    Please don't keep us hanging!

    Personally, I'm afraid I can't be bothered about hearing 2 guys spitting opinions about Ae. If I want to hear an opinion, I'll go for a Fandango Needledrop youtube. So, I'll pass.

    It's a really good (Function) album, although Silent Servant also had a hand in it; the vinyl version is the better one, the CD/digital versions are not as good - although they're great, too. Sandwell District as a whole (label, collective, sound) was one of the high points of electronic dance music, I've got everything that was ever released on the label and there's no chaff whatsoever.

    Thanks! I missed out the first time. What's the difference between the Feed Forward vinyl version and the digitals?

    Can't find them on Bandcamp. But Hardwax and Bleep carry some digitals.

    A politics defined by hatred of political opponents is a politics ripe for hateful illiberalism.

    The new scholarship on comparative polarization is crucial in understanding this dynamic. In one sense, it offers a very depressing view: Given the current binary structure of American party politics, this conflict is mostly locked in. No level of social media regulation or media literacy or exhortation to civility is going to make much of a difference. But it also offers a kind of master key: If the structure of a party system is as crucial as these studies suggest it is, then the solution is obvious: The U.S. may want to change its voting system to become more proportional.
