One of the most offensive things about Woodstock ‘99 was that these guys, who were relics of the 60s, felt that this was something that Gen Xers needed. That we somehow needed our own experience of what they had


Like, dafuq is this supposed to even mean?
Geez, let’s make the festival’s organizer’s pay for wanting to do something cool and fun and important for the attendees.




Or just a moment later:

"The Rave hangar was very cynical, very soulless. Let's shove in some DJs and some drugs and some kids and keep this going all night. It made no sense to me whatsoever. There is no crossover, there is no world in which a kid who's there for Limp Bizkit is also, like, looking to go do extasy in thee rave tent and phase out to Moby. It's just not happening."

Is she retarded? What is she even saying there? "There is no world" where's that possible? Really?

And what does cynicism have to do with Limp Bizkit fans trying to dance to rave music?

I'm not big on joining rock and electronic music during one estival myself. But come on...do you think there won't be people who enjoy it?

But here, when watching it, I just felt like someone wants to sell me an idea, and not facts. Like listening all the time to people who were saying it was **** (because you had mud next to your tent, or because the showers were not functioning, or because people got raped — and it’s all literally just shoved in together)

Sick hangups bro

well, documentaries are supposed to be documents of the time; facts not fiction

So, expecting them to be accurate isn’t much of an expectation
They rarely are though, so it's an unrealistic expectation.

Unnecessary emotional investment.

Like damn, you disagreed with an interview subject in a mediocre doc, let it go.

I guess it's just the way I am, you know
Because I crave for the truth and I have to spend my time somehow.

This could be the definition of any emotional involvement really

I don't remember white people freely using racials slurs with their black friends and everything wound up being peachy.

Speak for yourself, me and my urban-style friends and cohorts have engaged in some radical struggle sessions to address, confront and expunge the toxic legacy of white supremacy holding sway in our society, and boy did we proudly and loudly reclaim that one famous word together in the spirit of solidarity and liberation, you know the word I'm talking about...

They barely included them for some reason. I wanted to see more ICP!
