cwagner,

Folk, Folk-Rock, Folk-Metal, Classical, Progressive Death Metal, Grindcore, Melodic Black Metal with Death influences, Industrial Metal, Industrial Rock

Also, quite some metal outside those genres, but those would be the main ones. Oh, and some almost metal K-Pop (e.g. Dreamcatcher) via my wife ;)

I run away from Rap, RnB, most electronic music (Some few exceptions, and I also like the freaky stuff like Gabber and faster up to speedcore or terrorcore) unless it’s mixed with metal.

cwagner,

Industrial Rock: Obviously the godfathers of industrial rock ;) KMFDM: Don’t blow your top from 1988 Black Hole 2022. Older Oomph! songs are amazing I.N.R.I. vs. Jahwe 1996. Revolting Cocks are also fun Jack in the Crack 2006. A lot of Marilyn Manson and Nine Inch Nails stuff arguably also belongs to the genre.

For metal, we have the link between them: Ministry who are pretty much for metal what KMFDM is for Rock Just One Fix 1992. Quite different is Dutch The Monolith Deathcult who are one of the few Industrial Death Metal bands Wrath of the Ba’ath 2008. Hanzel und Gretyl are a military party industrial metal band ;) Fukken Über Death Party 2006 (Note: they use Nazi Germany sound samples and imagery, though satirized). Pain’s Shut your Mouth 2001 is one of my all-time favorite songs and videos

Okay, I guess that’s enough for now ;)

given how little one vote matter, it seems to me that stripping felons of their right to vote is both petty and counterproductive if the point was to reform them into civic minded individuals ?

Also, seems kind of scary that this implies a future where so many people are in prison that their vote could actually tip the balance ?

cwagner,

For Details : Disfranchisement#United_Kingdom

The “some way” seems to mostly be “fuck your rulings, court”.

cwagner,

if the point was to reform them into civic minded individuals ?

You are talking about the USA, right? I don’t think anyone sees the USA prison system as something targeting reform and rehabilitation.

Felons don’t lose their right to vote in most of Europe, and that right is actually seen as a human right by the EU.

cwagner,

What? Just because they want people punished instead of rehabilitated does not mean that everyone should get capital punishment. What kind of weird straw man is that?

And the US does have capital punishment.

cwagner,

I get called a tankie for pointing out the US role in destabilizing Ukraine and supporting the coup there than led directly to the civil war in Donbass.

Well, now I’m curious. I know next to nothing about this, I barely knew where Ukraine was before 2016, so please share ;)

cwagner,

That is only relevant for instances hosted in Germany, and also why feddit.de and discuss.tchncs.de (like most instances, though) defederated from NSFW instances.

Age gates are a joke and almost no one uses them, xhamster even flouts the law and changes the German subdomain whenever there is a new idiotic ISP DNS block.

Related anecdote: I was hosting an erotica forum (which I started doing when I was 14 or 15 …) when the law came to be, we had to get a Jugendschutzbeauftragter (youth protection officer; luckily something that existed “as a service” for like 5€/month) and implement an age gate. This killed the site.
