    Most people who made world changing influence went through horrible tragedies and they didn't want anyone else to go through them

    • @Syklonus
      @Syklonus 4 роки тому +1

      That's the problem with the world. People who have never gone through a tragedy can't relate to those who do, and so they write them off as stupid/lazy/crazy or whatever. Either that or they just don't care and expect them to simply "Get on with the job". Mental health is simply not treated well enough in the world today.

This will be my daughters second concert. First one was KISS and it was amazing. Now we are taking the 200 mile trip to see the GREATEST live act in the world. Trying to bring her up right and to have good taste in music. Anyway I truly hope all is well with ALL of you and I will see you in the pit. Be well, be cool and for gods sake be good to each other.

      What a dick thing to say! Expressing your pain through an artistic medium is one of the best releases you can get, plus is creates empathy with people who are listening to the music and may be going through the same things. You are basically telling him to sweep his issues under the rug becasue it bothers you in some small way. That's like telling a homeless person to move on becasue the sight of them makes the street look untidy. Consider yourself a piece of shit.
