Eleran Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 I wonder how many of the people that contributed to his GoFundMe campaign were old people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had older adults in drum corps treat me far more disrespectfully than a kid ever has. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoaDci Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 Please stop. All of you. This is stupid and you know it. I understand both sides, but seriously!? Get over yourselves, this debate isn't going to end, and you guys ranting endlessly on what should change isn't actually gonna change anything. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is entitled to have his own opinion and show emotions. All I'm saying is don't go all "LOL this kid needs a safe space" and then completely unironically whine even harder than the person you're mocking. I understand his complaints, but there comes a point where the criticism they face goes beyond just the organization and onto the players themselves instead. They shouldn't have to take that slap to the face. If you don't approve of something so much that you're personally insulting members, speak with your wallet instead. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post DrumManTx Posted June 25, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted June 25, 2017 (edited) Hey, @flammaster and others, there is a SUPER toxic Facebook group called "I Don't Support DCI" that has come to the attention of a lot of people in the activity lately. It's filled with some older alums and participants of the activity and to be frank it's pretty disgusting. Incredibly mean spirited and disgusting comments that include comparing a member of Carolina Crowns 2015 guard to prostitution and stuff about sex slavery and the list goes on. They got ahold of BDs uniform too and I won't give them more attention but I've been told by someone not on DCP that his tweet was in response to this group. His tweet was not inappropriate in response to that sad, incredibly disgusting, and terrible crowd. I don't think a BD drum major would tweet something like that if it wasn't in response to that group which is honestly the equivalent of pure hate speech about the acitivity and it's members.

dcsnare93 Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 (edited) We all know what he was referring to -- people who constantly decry that today's generation is bastardizing drum corps. These folks hardly ever have anything positive to say. There's a whole group on on Facebook devoted to it. Or we can do as some people have, and take a 26 word tweet, with no context, and assume the worst of his intentions. Sigh.
