I don't like ACDC and I think Bon Scotts weasels sound like s*** There i said it

I agree with everything you write, but would merely point out that identity politics isn't silo-ed in gender. Much of the radical identical politics we're witnessing is also rooted in race, political preference, religion, etc. Which is why I'd suggest the sexual identity movement is only a piece of the puzzle. It's like we're in a weird sort of limbo period with nothing better to do than engage in social tribalism and in-fighting. There is no great war to be fought. No soviet menace to beaten back. The genuine societal upheaval and tension of the 20th century is gone. Nothing to unite dissimilar peoples. So everyone looks around the room, picks teams based on shared identities, and engages in petty battles for perceived social power. It's fun, but also sorta scary and unhealthy. A new plane or battlefield brought to you by the internet information age. And what's worse is someone, or a group of someones, who might not have otherwise engaged in this identity tribalism, is often stoked to do so by opposing groups stirring the pot for better or worse. Take the BLM or AntiFa movement for example. Some may disagree, but I think whatever good they think they're accomplishing is completely negated by the fact that they are radicalizing their own opposition. Neither movement has accomplished anything on paper, but their opponents who genuinely disagree with them are now up in arms and growing in number, and so they've created their own enemy, and now the beast they thought they were fighting is much more real and more difficult to overcome. But the LARPing is entertaining I must admit.

I realize that, but I'm inquiring as to the difference between Blue Grass and Newfie Music. Certainly they aren't the same, even if they have similar influences. Blues and Jazz both have their roots in black communities from the American south, but they're two different sounds. My question is probably better phrased as "is newfie music more scot/irish sounding than current blue grass". Someone mentioned jigs and stuff so that was the impression I got. (I realize you can do a jig to a bluegrass song)

TLDR: identity politics is a phase, and level-headed reason will return (eventually). I don't know that I disagree with that conclusion per say, I might disagree more with the premise that it's the residuals of the sexual identity acceptance movement, though I'd agree it is a piece of the puzzle. It's seemingly cool or advantageous to become a victim these days, which is sickening really. I think the pendulum has already begun to swing back in the other direction already as you suggest it will. Which is why you see more conservative movements gaining steam in NA and Europe. It's simple back lash to being told your an "oppressor" because you didn't acknowledge the correct pronoun of the 183rd gender or what have you, and the result of fake hate crimes to garner manufactured sympathy. I find it interesting that it is most often the so-called "victims" engaging in their own labeling these days. "I'm a multi-racial, gender fluid, trans-muslim, and therefore I am inherently oppressed". When historically labeling-theory was used to describe the majority labeling and stereotyping a minority. It's almost like... if society won't label us, WE'LL DO IT OURSELVES! Then this victim culture is coupled with internet outrage culture. OMG THIS GUY WAS RACIALLY PROFILED, BURN EVERYTHING DOWN. The massive rush to virtue signaling before the facts are in is nuts. IMO one of the interesting shifts in my life time is the moral high ground shifting from the religious right, to the socially progressive left. Where as once the religious right were the major demonizers of all things immoral, now the progressive left has seemingly taken up the mantle to demoize those who do not share the same social proclivities. IDK, like you say I could go on, but I'd be interested to what you think of my very off the cuff 10 sec take here.

Right. I wasn't aware they still made music honestly. Just looked it up. They're releasing a song called "Fire, Ready, Aim" for Wednesday night hockey. Preview: I guess Larkin is supposed to be in the montage Yawn

Noooo you goose, didn't Nash trade away Subban so they could keep Josi?

This guy does some pretty entertaining breakdowns of moments around the league "It's a ******* no-helmet party, had to take two helmets off myself" Those dance moves thou

Petty good, don't really care for the rest I heard somewhere that the NHL is partnering with Green Day for game day stuff, and that's it's gonna be like how the NFL had Hank Williams as the voice/tune of Monday night football. Big brain NHL marketing

Brit bands > American bands I see where your loyalties lie Canadian

February 24th, 2020: Mike Green has been traded to 1st round exit team for a 2nd round pick in 2020 July 1st, 2020: Torey Krug has inked a 7 year deal with the Detroit Red Wings for $7.5 AAV, citing his desire to return home to metro Detroit and his close relationship with bench boss Jeff Blashill Dekeyser - Hronek Krug - Nemeth Cholowski - Seider Bowey

I AM A PROUD OASIS FANBOY Jk I def wouldn't put the stones in the same boat as U2 or Bon Jovi, but they're also not at the top of my list for classic rock bands either. IDK why, just never got that into them. Mick can still move move like a MFer thou. Probably go with Zeppelin and Aerosmith for my fav big ticket classic rock bands.

K so what's the difference then youtwo?

Just wanted to mention for the game against Buffalo tonight... Joe Rogan is performing at the Fox tonight as well so this could actually be the LSD/DMT night lol should be a few trippers out n about

Comparing intercepting a cross ice pass to the man who will literally bat your chip in out of the air before it even leaves your stick Big off Weeksie

@Dabura beat me to it

RED WING CHADS RISE UP Sending Tuzzi, Dboss, and Big Mantha ALL our alpha vibes tonight Givani Smith will arrive VIOLENTLY and leave their hearts bleeding on the open ice Time to drag the swordy boys back to their rightful place in the divisional basement. The clawing back to the top begins tonight. Inch by inch. BIG HYPE LETS GET THIS

Wow that hat is incredibly ugly lol Where can I get one?

sing about things I can relate to, like cocaine and hookers TIL there is such thing as Newfie music... Sounds like Canadian version of bluegrass, but with an scot/irish twist...?

Is this to replace Glendog? Good for Givani, he's been scoring in GR. I expect him to jump someone and show he wants to be here. Lezzz goooo

Why do you hate all music?

Missed your post somehow This is the edge I need in my music U2 is completely devoid of edge. They are smooth and boring.

Lol I hate all three of those bands We probably have fundamentally different tastes Every song sounds the same to me. Every song is upbeat and uplifting. I get why they have mass appeal, makes me personally wanna vomit. I wouldn't say that at all. You're acting like U2 is a buncha virtuosos. They're no better than the average hair metal band. They've been making hits for 30 years cause they weren't drug induced party animal degenerates like their hair metal comrades. Those guys all died or burned out in 5 to 10 years. Kiss has been around for 100 years and they make the most elementary music on the planet

Hughes is like a top4 NHL Dman already

Evan Bouchard has more AHL points as a Dman than Zadina and Veleno combined right now

IDK, I don't see it Who is Lukashenko? Russias VP? Respect my right as an American to only know like 5 world leaders besides my own
