I diverge a bit from this in that I believe there are to be exceptions made for the Arts which obviously should remain private in nature
Oh, yeah in that case for sure.

But the main problem with communism is it's never worked in the past because the leader always assumes absolute power. The real winner here would be a hybrid of Communism and Capitalism: Socialism.

So why should we give a **** about treating it seriously? Just to enforce rules for the sake of enforcing rules? To protect people who will likely only ever post once, and who almost never even thank us when we find whatever song they were looking for? **** that.
First of all, I don't give a flying fuck what you think, and second, bullying people just trying to find the name of an artist or song is pathetic, no matter how much you want to try and justify that kind of behavior. If you don't like it, you know where the door is.

for example there's the theory that rising automation will force global socialism as remedial labor jobs begin to shrink to extreme levels

Global Socialism is a just a skip jump away from Marxism
I like Marxism as well.

The way to go is some kind of one world totalitarian regime with strict-ass population control and eugenics.
Not sure it's worth it though.
Plus nobody could lead such a thing without becoming yet another silly dictator.
Perhaps some skynet thing will come along the way and do the job.

Bullying? Get a grip, you drama queen. They don't care about being here so I highly doubt a little harmless ****ery is going to do more than annoy them a bit. And this isn't your forum, so if you don't like my opinions then you can get the **** out yourself.

i'm not necessarily pro-capitalism but i don't see an existing system that i feel would work any better. i think grindy is pretty close to the truth with what he initially said.

I don't agree. Who is this "everyone" you're referring to? It's purpose is to help people out that are looking for a song, and I personally find it very rewarding when I can help.

You post harsh video's to give yourself the illusion that you're superior. It's a form of bullying, and 99.9% of the time there's some underlying personal issue that manifests itself into this behavioral defect.

So much bull****. I'm really tired of it. The ****ing frat house behavior around here is what drives a lot of people that are looking to talk about music away. It's really sad.

Well unless space colonization becomes a thing or we have drastic improvements in housing (like arcology) then reproductive rights may very well become a luxury we can't afford. I'm thinking more China and less Nazi Germany though.

As I said, I'm not sure it's worth it.
But the future of humanity would be much better ensured by something like that than by your silly hippy feel-good bull****.

There you go resorting to name calling. You really do get upset when someone gets banned. It's kind of funny.
