I absolutely mangled his surname lol it's Neil Cicierega and this was the album that I was thinking of: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v2arFId7T4w
Holocaust denialism is censorship. It's an attempt to hide reality itself by controlling the narrative. If anything, outlawing holocaust denialism is anti-censorship, as it's helping ensure that Nazis won't be able to suppress the truth about what happened.
Someone claiming that outlawing holocaust denialism is censorship is trying to flip the script and overwrite reality (or just repeating someone else who is doing so, I guess). It's like saying "Hey! Stop censoring my attempt to censor others! This is censorship!" It's a mind game, an attempt at manipulation through deception. Look up the term DARVO: Deny, Accuse, Reverse Victim and Offender. That's what saying "Outlawing holocaust denialism is censorship!" is: Reversing the Victim and Offender.
Lies and misinformation and other attempts to deceive and suppress the truth are not a form of free speech. Quite the opposite, they're what results when free speech remains unprotected.
Okay, fair enough. I think I'm still a little shellshocked from using Reddit for years. I'd like to see Lemmy work out in the long run so I'm taking a chance and writing, I don't know, like sincere efforts to spur discussion? It's not something I do on Reddit anymore because there are too many people trying to "defeat" posts instead of just honestly answering, or people who will say "Why don't you just Google it?" and act like they're doing you a favor by treating you like a halfwitted child, to say nothing of some of the genuinely unhinged shit that goes on over there... I mean, you're probably a Reddit refugee yourself so I'm sure you know what I'm talking about. I pretty much only lurk and occasionally shitpost at Reddit these days because it has so little value beyond that anymore.
Anyway, I'm sorry if I came across as harsh or overly defensive, I'm honestly trying to be better about that. Social media is really only as good as the people who use it, and I'm no exception.
Thanks for the link, shame about your copy but it's not the worst thing you could lose in a car accident, I hope at least it didn't suffer long
Yeah this one is among my favorites too.
Yeah, I kind of figured. Like, just the fact that it's a band from that scene is a pretty big red flag. It's not really my kind of music anyway tbh I just like the cover.
Mr. Blackheart?
Myees my pretty?
Are you an ivory dealer?
Oh ho ho ho, I've had lots of jobs. Whale hunter. Seal clubber. President of the FOX network. And yeah, like most people, I've dealt a little ivory.
Yeah I honestly had to debate with myself over the NSFW tag since you can barely tell lol
It's a cool cover, tho
It's from the episode where the family goes on vacation to the Flanders' lake house in that town with the absurdly long name that I don't remember and Lisa starts dressing differently and makes a group of new friends, one of whom is Christina Ricci. I think it was the seventh season, I don't recall the title.
EDIT: Sorry I might not have followed the rules here correctly, I am stoned. The joke is that Marge says "I'm never gonna let you go" or something like that to Maggie because Lisa is trying to be independent or something, and Maggie is worried because her mom is being clingy.
EDIT 2: Sorry again, I actually took a look at this, uh, sublemmy's other posts and it appears that I was actually supposed to respond with a quote from the episode. So like, you know, whatever.

Yeah Spotify sucks, I just recently deleted my account entirely. The only thing I liked about it was making playlists. Then one day I had a Fuck This Shit moment and decided I was done.
I have a collection of digital albums that is far better than anything I could get at Spotify, lol
