  • Having empathy does not mean we have to work under the assumption that everything should cater to the most delicate of sensibilities (even if the reason for said delicate sensibility are well-justified). I am empathetic and I am sorry for the additional challenges navigating experiences like this can cause you.

    I still stand by my point.

    And to your point, yes tagging is a wonderful system and it does help those like yourself in your navigation. I support tagging and like OP mentioned, love systems that allow for robust tagging.

    But let’s be clear, that kind of tag is a very kind and wonderful courtesy, the absence of which is not malicious, it is neutral.

    Yeah people are missing your point and thinking you’re praising Booker’s specific action as the solution rather than what (I think) you’re actually doing, which is praising action in general and encouraging others to recognize and take up whatever actions they can/will in lieu of inaction.

    Good on you.

    ^ That’s you.

    Trying to define the relevancy and lifeline of music as a whole based on the popularity of pub folk music is crazy.

    More people are making music today than ever before, as barriers monetary, technological, and knowledge-based only continue to lower with time. I have no idea how you’ve managed to draw the opposite conclusion.
