how about dissidence so severe it seems like parody, or you know, trolling?
like it's really funny to me someone strolled in a topic and said "I've never heard 808s used in a rap album. also Chinese Democracy, that album fuckin EVERYONE hates? it ruled". it's so wrong it seems like it's not a real dissenting opinion but more an attempt to goad other people into commenting on it.
for instance: "I really hate Person Pitch. Idk why! it is not an album I enjoy." is not a troll, it is just a dissenting opinion.
"Person Pitch? Wtf's that shit. Fallout Boy had a new album it was the best." is so weird and off that yeah, you can assume the person is goading you to reply.
this is trolling 101 man.
it is still dissidence.
If you honestly strongly dislike Person Pitch, why would I take it as an offense.
I understand people have different perceptions, different tastes. That's pretty much automatic thinking.
Now, you could have an argument if there is provocation. As in, "I am saying this is shit because I specifically want to annoy you". That's not dissidence,
that's trolling.
And fatcat's post was completely impersonal.
I personally think you guys should apologize, I'm not saying you guys should do this, I can care less.
Chinese Democracy can be target of parody, I laugh at it myself actually. But there's a limit here. And when you get someone who openly and frankly says he enjoys it, you should respect that, in spite of your absolutely disagreeing taste. Then you may argue why you think his taste is not good.
But saying: "DUDE YOU THINK CHINESE DEMOCRACY IS BEST? DUDE YOU ARE TROLLING"
that's lame
