Music is supposed to bring people together. It always has in the history of time, but for some reason not here?
Your argument is based on the faulty assumption that music unites. I could argue the opposite. Music is often called a universal language, but it frequently separates people along lines of genre, generation, and geography. Musical taste becomes a social marker: fans of different styles form distinct cultural groups, reinforcing in-group identity while excluding others. Generational differences deepen the divide, as the music people grow up with shapes their identity and often feels alien to those outside that cohort. Geography also creates musical loyalties—regional scenes and traditions that do not easily translate elsewhere. Rather than uniting everyone, music often highlights cultural differences and clusters similar people together while excluding others. As for you with your “why don’t we all get along” fairly tale façade, your passive aggressive behaviour contributes to the continued downfall of this site. You claim to be a bringer of peace and then you say things like, “You're just a coward and refuse to be happy so you want everyone else to be miserable.” You’re like a clown with a fake happy face who throws a bomb into a room and then claims that other people made it explode. At least the a$$holes on this site – including me – know that they are being a$$holes. You have zero self awareness of your own behaviour which is why you don’t understand why you were kicked off one songwriting site, and why waving your little magic wand on this site does not bring peace. It’s pretty hard to ask for peace when you are the one shooting the gun.
Who says I can't play the banjo?

"If you are stuck in your musical composing, be unreasonable. Change your environment. If you are stuck in your lyrical efforts, instead of forcing the same old words out, force yourself to do unreasonable things." -Brian Austin Whitney
