When I was a kid, people would make fun of you if you had a particular favourite, or if you didn't, and you had to hide it. Now, even if a random idiot makes fun of you, it just doesn't matter, you can find your own communities where you are accepted and they are just making fools out of themselves. 💚

    • Yeah it would be nice if it were true but nowadays the music industry tells you what you like. Most upcoming musicians are industry plants designed to fit the preferences you think are your own but really have been instilled in you for the last ten years tirelessly in every piece of media you consume. It’s not about what people like it’s about what they’ve been told to like. lol you really thing artists are more original now than they were back then? That’s just an insane assertion
