redrum Posted March 11, 2022 Share Posted March 11, 2022 It's only temporary hate. 😄 Facebook and Instagram users in some countries will be allowed to call for violence against Russians and Russian soldiers in the context of the Ukraine invasion, after parent company Meta made a temporary change to its hate speech policy.

WTF!!! This is not right. I don't blame the Russian soldiers any more than I blamed American soldiers who fought illegal wars in Vietnam, Iraq, & Afghanistan. I blame the ones sending them off and ordering them to kill, those are the people where blame should be laid, not the soldiers. Sure a person can argue the soldiers could refuse to fight but they are Russian with a crazy dictator in charge, most likely they would be killed for refusing to fight. Now I am hearing Putin may have terminal cancer and possibly Parkinson's to boot so he has nothing to lose and zero shit's given. A very bad combo if true.

We both got booted out of the the theater and we didn't know what to do with ourselves after that. Maybe Zuckerberg was the usher. 😆 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just word salad said with a shitty voice. That's just my opinion. When it comes to good rappers I love Snoop's laid back flow, he has an interesting voice, and he phrases his words very well. Dre is good, dude sounds like he will F you up on every tune, maybe a bit one-dimensional but still, good flow and aggressive delivery. NWA, Public Enemy, 2Pac, and of course Slick Rick, 2 $hortt, & Phife Dawg are all great. Another overrated rapper was Biggie. The guy had good flow, good beats, but I could not understand half of what the dude said, he sounded like he was rapping with one of Lil' Kim's tit's in his mouth. Eminem...Pfffft. I appreciate your opinion for sure. I have to say please listen to Rap God, and Godzilla from Em. They might be the best examples of Hip Hop ever. His skills are on full display, and I think if you gave each song a listen you would have a different appreciation for him. Being that I have a brother in the industry, I grew up in Hip shop crews, dance crews, party crews and gangs, he destroys it on another level. I’ll also find a way to put my little brothers stuff out on this forum, he makes his own beats, and his lyrical content is off the hook. Anyone who appreciates Hip Hop will be into it. I will say that we all have our own tastes and opinions, and I’m good with whatever people are into. But check out those two tracks and let me know how you feel after. Also get the lyrics to each of them. They are mind blowing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I changed the octave of the reverse chords in Reaper and it gave it an 'organy sound.' A happy accident. 🙂 https://freesound.org/people/tubbers/sounds/623183/ Alright, I’m digging this. You need to put that altogether with the other tracks you have recorded. That sound like David Lynch mixed with something more evil that David Lynch. But yeah man, I like that a lot. I played a few times and that shit is scary and depending on the interpretation it is deep. It would be cool to hear it all mixed together. Great job Red!

However, what I'm suggesting is society functioned far better when the expectation was to assimilate as opposed to becoming militant, hyphenated Americans asserting one's place in the hierarchy of victimhood. In other words, diversity and inclusion means there is a place at the table for everyone except the host (yes, I need to trademark that line). Japan is a homogenous society -- over 98% Japanese. Having lived for several years in both homogenous and non-homogenous societies, my preference now, as I age, is a homogenous society. The Japanese, for example, aren't spending lots of time, money and energy instituting race-based public health and employment policies, tearing down statues, and smashing store front windows over some perceived social injustice. I can agree to live and let live, and don't object to love all, serve all and so on but the fact is there are specific groups of people I do flat out avoid whenever possible and that is my right. As for the Harmon guitar, a new thread in either Led Zeppelin Master Forum or trivia seems appropriate. There are already a number of existing autograph analysis threads if you'd just like to add them to one of those. If it's meant only for me I believe they can be sent via private message.

Nothing to misconstrue as that pretty much is racism right there. You claim diversity excludes or is at the expense of "the host" which I believe is a euphuism for "straight white guys." What you fail to recognize is it was those very same straight white guys who through actual law and policy, made non-whites, non-straight, and even non-males either second class citizens, or outright stripped them of all rights altogether simply based on not being straight white males. Sorry to be the barer of the obvious, but human nature tends to work in extremes. The straight white guys put the screws to every other group in this country since day 1 and now those groups want some payback. You sowed the wind, time to reap the whirlwind. Nobody's fault but ours...get over it. Also, regarding that non-discriminatory homogenous Japan, tell that to the Japanese born Koreans, I am sure they might have issue with your rather rose-colored views of Japanese society.

Just haven't messed with it that much. He does a good review on it. I picked one up along with Astronaut pedal, which you can’t find anymore unless you pay $250 or more and rising ... very cool effects R😎 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
