              Because I don’t like than an artist I once enjoyed is a drugged out and drunken mess? Based on the reaction it definitely sounds like it.

              Didn’t think that many lemmings likes washed up has been metal acts, but to each their own I guess.

                I actually responded to the wrong person and I apologize. I’ve actually heard the same thing about MM lately – just washed-up and sad.

        People don’t appreciate having spurious claims attached to their legitimate claims, even in jest. It invokes the idea that since the previous targets of blame were false that these likely are as well.

          They’re all external factors. Music and videogames have been (wrongly, imo) blamed in the past. Media, especially nowadays, is probably more “blameable” than music and games, but i still think it’s bs to use external factors as an excuse to justify mass shootings.

            What are the internal factors of a person that are not influenced by the environment or culture?
