Well, not exactly.
"Lindsay freaks can't accept that his touring demands are why he was fired," that would clearly show my bias.
Yes, because in this statement you are name-calling the people who are fans of one particular band member. So that is, in fact, name calling.
I said "Lindsey was fired because $tevie wanted Mike to replace him," again, there's a bias
Actually, there's no name calling or insulting in that statement towards any other fans at all. It's merely an OPINION about what actions were taken by band members.
And, maybe this is where some people are having a problem.
Just because someone is offering an opinion about what they think happened within the band, or in a lot of cases, are citing actual statements about what happened made by people who were a lot closer to the action, those are NOT "insults". If someone wants to say Mick is a this or that or Stevie is a diva or Lindsey is a brat, or whatever... THAT IS NOT AN INSULT to anyone on this board for pete's sake. It's someone's opinion, and in some cases a comment based on a statement we have high confidence is actually true about what went on. You can disagree, and offer an alternative perspective, but if someone wants to insult Stevie, or Lindsey for that matter, or Mick, NO ONE in this forum should somehow take that as an insult to THEMSELVES.
Someone hating on a band member is NOT an attack on other fans. Unless they actually insult another fan.
People need to stop being so personally offended when someone doesn't like their favorite band member, or when someone proposes a theory they don't like, or when people are talking about a topic you aren't interested in or are tired of discussing.
