Look hard enough at anything and you can find a reason to be offended.
 
Frankly, I'm offended that you're offended.....
 
nahhhh.... not really.... I could care less...and that probably offends you as well. Good.

Political Correctness is a euphemism.... it's a term bandied about by *ssholes complaining about being treated like *ssholes for acting like *ssholes...

It's not politically correct to be politically correct.

Hi,
 
There are some things that are better German ... but I'm not sure that politics is gonna help anyone get things together.
 
The best record label - and most experimental -- ECM
The only and best Krautrock -- Can, Amon Duul 2, Faust, Guru Guru
The best electronics -- Klaus Schulze, Tangerine Dream
...
and some other examples, of note:
 
-- I miss my VW type 2 Bus and its Porsche engine
-- I don't miss the Wagner music a lot
-- I love the theater sets in Beyruth, and some of those pictures all the way back 80 years are awesome
-- And I'm damn glad I don't have to see another revival in Broadway for yet another washed out musical!
-- I don't miss German Philosophers a whole lot, but at least one writer is really good, or the translations are magnificently great! Goethe

Actually not. When they became famous, they lost it for me. The music stopped being trippy and it was strictly about the sequencer and repeating it all again! Their early stuff, is way better, as are the solo albums around those guys which are vastly superior.
 
In many ways, it thought that when they became famous it brought it all down from experimental to pop music, and the main reason why I got into progressive and art music, was to get away from the pop music crap and simplistic -- most of it lazy -- music!
