Ironically, this only shows closed-mindedness and limited view of music (and other entertainment as well).
Seriously though, what is up with people here that go "entertainment is bad (cause i don't know better)", and seemingly have so many people agree with them as well. It's not even funny, it's just kinda sad, if this is even a sincere view and not just obtuse trolling slash some bizarre 'culture war', 'current culture is bad' shit takes. "the gory games", this is some "parents being scared of Doom (1993 videogame)" nonsense, are we seriously recycling all of that idiocy? Just barely new puritanism. Feeling traumatized by the Xbox games catalog is kind of a hilarious image though.
- jamwil 1y agoI thought it was an interesting perspective from someone who has lived a very un-American life.
- pxoe 1y agoI'm not sure if it's so much "un-american" rather than just "popular culture is dumb" (which may be one's perspective even on culture that's more local to them). It's not interesting, it's shallow. It's refusing to see depth in things. It's anti-interesting, if anything - preventing something interesting from developing, preventing developing interest in something. And there's truly no shortage of unoriginal pearl clutching like this about everything. (besides, "the west" might not be america, nor is it necessarily an outside perspective from some other place or a perspective on things more closely around them.)
