and what do you allege that he claims?

(, Mon 14 Dec 2009, 20:19, archived)
I don't allege anything
I have a problem with someone growing up in an extremely affluent area trying to be down with the common man. Talking about being oppressed when you are rich is hypocritical. That's not to say I wouldn't agree that he or they (the band) should try to help the working class.

But don't try to identify with me. Don't be down with the common man when you have never known what the fuck it's like. Don't tell me that you feel like I fucking feel, and that you "know my struggle". Help me, don't parade it to make money. Which is ultimately what they did.

SO yeah, I have a problem with them.

Yeah, and Bruce Dickenson, you twat
Neither you nor any other member of Iron Maiden have been Tailgunners. Or Troopers, for that matter. You lying cunts.

Bruce Dickenson's the one from Little Angels, isn't he?

edit: No, they're BOTH Dickinsons.

He's opening a rib restaurant in the USA
with a really badly spelled menu.

So basically, you're a snob?

A poor one, yes.
:D I have problems with anyone trying to identify like that.

I suppose all AIDS charity workers ought to contract HIV
before they're allowed to dish out any pathos.

You are completely missing my point
and therefore are just being an argumentative cunt.

I am not saying that they shouldn't help. I am saying it's hypocritical to say "We're poor"

They're not poor. Never have been.

I can't think of a song where they've claimed to be poor.

Why does Wikipedia disagree with you?
Apparently his father was an artist and his mother an anthropologist and they were separated from each other. Not lawyers. Not super-affluent.

He also apparently suffered racism due to his Mexican heritage.

Sounds really privileged.

Okay
If you say so.

I don't say so
I have no idea about the man. But I can read Wikipedia as well as the next person.

You seem to know all about him though. Just wondering what your source was.

what if the next person is Stevie Wonder?

(, Mon 14 Dec 2009, 21:12, archived)
I bet Stevie Wonder has a personal butler
whose only task is to read out Wikipedia entries to him.

Oh soz
Knew him. Met him.

You could have said
"I don't like RATM. I don't enjoy that sort of music and I met Zack de la Rocha and thought he was a twat" and everything would have been fine.

But you started making baseless accusations and prejudiced statements based on inverted snobbery about his perceived wealth and privilege. Then you got snotty when people challenged your prejudices.

The Steve Miller Band aren't even space cowboys. I'm fucking outraged.

Doesn't matter
you are all going to belittle me for my opinion. I made a concise argument, and only I know.. so, whatever.
(, Mon 14 Dec 2009, 20:45, archived)
Yes, yes. We are THE MAN that is keeping you down. You stupid fucking prick.
You can't even see how much of a stupid fucking prick you are, can you?

no I am not, you little bastard
I have my opinion. That is all. Cock off.
(, Mon 14 Dec 2009, 20:52, archived)
your opinion was badly explained
your argument was wide open to criticism, since you haven't bothered to eplain further or provide prrof or examples of wha tyou are suggesting then there is no point trying to find a horse high enough

btw: i should know i get myself into this kind of trouble quite often enough

It was
wasn't it? Eloquence is not my strong suit. And I do not really have the evidence, save for knowing people who knew him, to back my claims up.
