Hmmm.. Brother Alphabet got quite overly concerned about Terre's CD insert.
So overly that he compared it to giving suggestions of being a fascist
skinhead, a racist, and a thief.
Well, Jason, it's not THAT bad... relative to you, maybe... since perhaps
you are a right-winger?? See, Terre is promoting safe sex, and also the
right to free drug use, so it seems. He believes not only in lots of
freedom (freedom to ingest whatever drug you wish), but also in being safe
with these freedoms. He is not some crazy careless nazi-lover going around
beating up black people, robbing old ladies, and slapping kids!! You've
twisted it completely! You must look at beliefs in themselves, not compare
them to others, as is what you did by making these exaggerated comparisons.
About not being musically related: It's not a requirement! The ideas in
the lyrics of so many songs are not musically related. Songs can be
political, emotional, or nonsense. There are plenty of songs expressing
the suggestion of legalization of certain drugs. Are you offended by love
songs which talk about love and not music?? Geez. Printed material on
CDs is also an expression of the artist. It's his/her right via the First.
About targeted audience: No, just cause you bought the CD doesn't mean you
have to "always" use those things... Give me a break. How easy are you to
be influenced? Don't you have a brain of your own to take input selectively?
Choose what you like and agree with, and recognize what you dislike and
disagree with, but don't go around preaching what should and shouldn't be
expressed. A great man once said:
"I may not like what you have to say, but I will defend to the death your
right to say it."
Besides, didn't you buy the CD mainly for the music? Or do you buy CDs for
the politically correct inserts they come with?
