I speak some Turkish, but I couldn't understand a thing, and of course the Youtube subtitles are in German. He would need to rap slowly for me to understand.

Has anyone noticed that the first Ethnic Turk was elected to some public office in Germany this week.

This is a big first because it's like a legal Mexican American Muslim being elected in the USA. Sorry, off topic.

What a cowardly abuse of the rep system.

Oh come on, can't you take a joke?

The reality is I don't make threads criticizing what people listen to, because I could care less. There is no reason to argue about it. Let people listen to what they like. Does what they listen to affect you in any way, shape, or form? No.

Topics like this are worthless.

The same thing applies to trying to slam religions. Who gives a $%^$. I thought liberals were all about the freedom. Guess not.

Excuse me? If you don't like it then don't respond to the thread or even open it in the first place. This part of the forum is for general talk which does not have to be serious in any way, shape or form.

We are, including the freedom to trash other people's beliefs.

Trash? No liberals tend to do more than that.

I wasn't criticizing what people listen to, I was criticizing their close mindedness. I'm so very sorry if you happen to think discussing an opinion on music is worthless, I really couldn't give a shit.

I'm not even a liberal. LOL, this is the sort of close minded, intellectual laziness I've been talking about.

Perhaps you could have started out by posting a civil opinion about the OP rather than be a pussy and red him without even commenting in the thread.

Once again, why would I want to post in a topic that I think is worthless?

You must be a simpleton.

Quite frankly the only simpleton I see here is you - if you bitch so much about not liking a topic then why on earth would you even open the thread much less red someone for it. Better yet, why do you even enter the Lounge if you dislike topics of this manner?

How would I know what the thread was about unless I opened the thread?
Use your head simpleton .
