Thread Name: BS: Politics only posters on Cat
Subject: RE: BS: Politics only posters on Cat
Imagine a group of people turning up at an open mike session, ignoring all the music, but setting up a soap box to push their politics at you in the interval.
What is the difference?


Whatever personal value judgements that may be expressed by some of our volunteer fellow posters and whatever impression of inferiority may be given by this - the site's owner has not made the value judgment that non-music subjects are in any way second rate. The fact that this section is underneath the music section just indicates that the non-music was born out of the non-music section. And the need for some posters to constantly complain that they did not like to see non-music titles mixed-up with the music ones.   

And one last thing, my official comment on the BS issue: I like it. Art=Music=Life=BS

The fact is that there is now there a special part of the forum set-aside for non-music related subjects. And you like to engage in debate there - why should any posters be surprised (or post to be judgemental) if their fellow posters in this section appear to have no interest in music?
