What's wrong with sober people? I choose to stay in control of myself and not inject poison in me.

No one has anything against sober people, just holier than thou assholes who say dumb shit like that.

edit: did anyone say verse or with honor? (dunno if WH was edge though)

That's uncalled for. I never said anything to make myself seem better than non-sober people.

You insinuated that people who do drugs are 1. not in control of themselves and 2. that they are "injecting poison" into themselves. Not only is that very inaccurate but it is judgy as fuck.

They are both true though. "Drugs", especially the more common ones such as alcohol or nicotine, are toxic. The "not in control part" is a bit tricky. If it refers to drug users being not in control ALL OF THE TIME and per se, it's obviously bullshit. If it refers to a heavily addicted or a drunk or tripping person, I dare say it's not so much of a stretch.

I'm not edge by the way.

How are they a joke band?

[gorillafuck]

How are they a joke band?

I just listened to a few of their songs (I've never heard them before) and they seem like they're half serious, half joking. As in, make music seriously but with deliberately corny lyrics.

Like, "if you're smoking in here you'd better be on fire", lol.

Yeah lol. Either way I gotta say I like their music.

You don't see how they're making outrageous lyrics which are obviously satorizing over-the-top edge types, and at other times are just goofy bro shit.

"cigarettes killed my father, and raped my mother"

"oh my god, carl got laid"

The Agonist vocalist is vegan straight edge, so are some of the Heaven Shall Burn band, Angela Gossow (Arch Enemy vocal) is too a vegan straight edge (she's also an anarchist), bands Deadlock and Maroon are all vegan straight edge, so are some members of Neaera and Purified in Blood. Cheers \m/

cmoney's avatar reminded my I read somewhere the bonnot gang members were all veggie teetotalers

[gorillafuck]

this is an ancient thread.

I dunno why I thought Earth Crisis were hardline, huh.

Yeah I like The Agonist, Arch Enemy and Maroon, and Heaven Shall Burn is my second favorite band of all time.

Yeah it is lol. I checked into it, nothing official I could find but I've seen alot of people say they are.

[The Douche]

Earth Crisis were never hardline.

There was a fine line in the 90s between "vegan straight edge" and "hardline".

[No_Leaders]

Just don't go listening to vegan reich. They're hardline, anti-choice, homophobic elitist assholes.

[fabian]

or just toxic free, pro-life, acsetic, anti-exploatation hc punkers.
