Do you prefer Millennials or Gen Z as a generation?

[Since I'm the mad scientist proclaimed by myself]

They horrify me because of how much the quality of my life would degrade if Gen Z got their way:

-No more mosh pits.
-No music fests that don't include rap.
-Permanent mask mandates everywhere.
-Constantly having to state and specify my pronouns despite having never done this in my life with no issues whatsoever.

A Gen Z dream world would be a f[inks]ing nightmare.

Jesse what the  are you talking about

All of those are things that were unheard of before Gen Z and now I've heard including here. Yes some Gen Zers want to ban moshing and basically enforce social distancing again at least half the year. Yes Gen Zers say not listening to rap is racist. Yes some Gen Zers including on this forum have called for permanent mask mandates ever after Covid. Yes in the last few days even we've had Gen Z posters defend the notion of having to always state and ask for pronouns.

Ten years ago all of those were considered beyond laughable notions.

How do I still live rent free in your head?

You never renounced any of your insane such views, just as you never renounced defending Saira Rao or other crazy things you said in your "toxic" incarnation that you admit was toxic but hold the same views as now.

I don't even remember that a Saira Rao exists. Take a chill pill and stop obsessing over some random barely-adult halfway across the country from you.

That's kind of a tacit admission your views are insane, it's just that they don't matter because you're not relevant.

It's called a snide dismissal. It means the post is too ridiculous to be worth seriously engaging with.

What else should they do? They're not going to stop people from moshing at their shows because one person didn't like it, that's for sure.

Ignore it maybe? Or make sure people who are there to see other bands know about the moshing? It's not unreasonable to be upset at being suddenly put in such a situation.

LOL guess what that band she came to see did?
THE SINGER GOT THE CROWD TO START A MOSH PIT!

Chill, dude.

Let's break down her post:

"First time I ever heard of you guys was the concert in Atlanta tonight and the lead singer kept encouraging mosh pits and crowd surfing,

This is exactly what Against the Current did in Minneapolis.

which made the majority of us, who were there for Against the Current, feel very unsafe and have to go to the sidelines,

Which is very silly because as noted ATC did the same thing and guess what? It doesn't mean all ATC fans had to do that.

which is not fair because we were there before your crazy fans.

Uh, what? Not sure what her point is. Maybe she got up front first, but people disperse all the time at these shows to grab drinks or go to the bathroom, she could totally get up front for ATC again after this (not that she would want to for the reason I mentioned.)

I almost had a panic attack. I didn't even get the chance to find out if I liked your songs because I had to keep worrying about getting kicked in the head."

Is this her first show? Seriously.

Point is she was being ridiculous.

I'm not having a debate on this.
