Gagas love 722 Posted September 20, 2016 Author Share Posted September 20, 2016 1 hour ago, ryhanna said: I know this kind of thing is done with good intentions and I appreciate that, but I'm just going to be honest here. I think trying to block out "negativity" is silly. Negativity is a byproduct of people wanting different things. Diversity of views is important, even if you don't agree with them or they seem harsh. There are always going to be people who crave some success or commercialism or more straight up pop, there are always going to be people who want Gaga to be as artistically in control and free to explore as possible, and people who want a degree of both. And a small bracket of those people are going to bitch when they don't get what they want. Or be too critical. It's what people do. Criticism ultimately stems back to differing opinions. I don't truly believe that anyone hates a song because it's not charting well - they dislike it because they wanted the kind of music from Gaga that does chart well. The kind that she made in the beginning of her career. They want pure pop that fits with what's on the radio. There's nothing wrong with wanting that, it just so happens that it's not the music Gaga's setting out to create. What I'm trying to say is, that while I think it's very kind of you to want to offer a space like that, we live in a world filled with billions of people who all think and want different things, and you can't censor what a certain portion of people feel just because it's "not positive enough." The internet/life in general is never going to be an ultra positive utopia. It's better to learn to just live with the thorn in your side than to attempt blocking it completely. so then why is everyone so against trump and his followers? i totally get you. you are trying to say we need positive and negative. i still think it would be nice to have a space like that and to trrrryyyyy to encourage people to be aware of how they are delivering their opinion? I do believe I came off extreme by saying eliminate it, but how about if I say Curb it more? lol. Nothing wrong wwith trying to push for a more loving and positive atmosphere. but yes youre so right, Being a nazi is no good. lol thanks for the perspective, made me notice my "idealistic extremism" lolol. but on another note, I challenge you to ponder a little more on youre statment of "the internet willl never be an ultra positive utopia" try to keep the door open for a maybe instead of a full on NO NEVER, because then for sure it will never happen ;p just like me limiting myself by being extreme with my no negativity, it is too limiting to think change is impossible ( i know you meant ultra utopia is impossible but dammit lemme dream lololol)). I love you guys, so educated and mature enough to trade views without ego. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
