Slippery Sloap

[spathiphyllum]

Well.. we all know artists aint perfect don't we.. So surely boycotting playing music by one of them because of their actions is a slippery slope. When does it stop? So many criminal rappers and some convicted murders, but there music is OK?


I hate double standards and this is a fat one.

Some music even promotes violence and it's still allowed.

"which would we need to boycott?"

Both and all of any relation else it's a fat double standard.

Who the hell is Pleasure P and what has he done?

[Zacs-Master]

Well, you found one (dubious) example. Well done. But I think you’re a bit out of date on that one:

It's not dubious

[spathiphyllum]

The question remains though, which would you boycott?

[Zacs-Master]

Well, if it’s not dubious, it’s anachronistic. (But it is dubious).

[spathiphyllum]

I'd boycott neither but if you're to boycott one you've gotta keep those standards.

[spathiphyllum]

ZM it's the principle that's the same.

[Zacs-Master]

You’ve not read my link, have you.

[spathiphyllum]

ZM I have.. and it's the same principle. Child molestation froma music artist.

?

[ummmm]

Spath - you're coming up with idiotic comparisons and making yourself look like a twerp.

[spathiphyllum]

Don't be so rude no i am not.

It's a perfect comparison why boycott one and not another. Double standards alert

[spathiphyllum]

Ummm that was a twerpy answer.

[ummmm]

If all drug users music was boycotted they wouldn't have much to play.

Child abuse is the most heinous of crimes and you're comparing it to people who are on self destruct.

[spathiphyllum]

Ummmmm my point exactly.

If we boycotted every artist who did a crime / conviction / what not, we'd have no music.

[spathiphyllum]

"Child abuse is the most heinous of crimes"

Debatable. I mean it's certainly up there no question but the most heinous? Nope.
