You can't stop communities being built around anything if there is anything different about something. Difference creates communities, which leads to enemies and alliances. This ultimately leads to conflict, but it unstoppable as long as their is difference. Since it is impossible to get every one person to accept everyone's difference, it it pointless and 100% utopian to even try to force people to agree on something, which is why I disagree with both sides of the argument here. The point is that if you don't like what someone is doing or how they think bring up the argument. If they aren't swayed by the time you present your facts then shut the **** up, reflect on the conflict, and take what you learned.

If you're being serious thats pathetic. Makes me wonder why you're on music discussion forums in the first place.
You obviously are not an advocate for peace. You only fuel the fire.

Your having an opinion also involved bashing the opinions of others, for inane reasons, do you fail to see the idiocy in that?
Any opinion can ultimately offend someone. When someone gets offended it is there fault. It is a mental choice to be offended. Want proof? Well, as children, we are taught to ignore things we can't deal with so there must be some type of choice since that works. Again, this is why I have a huge problem with people not being able to call something "***." Whether I think it is right or wrong, it doesn't matter, flipping out about a word makes you look like the biggest ****ing idiot in the world. It is all silly business. The bottom line is let people do what they want to do and if you don't like it, present the argument. They don't like it, get over it.
