Steven Wilson VS Greta Van Fleet

[jamesmanzi]

Here's the thing: we can, as a community, engage in a lengthy and reasoned debate about Steven Wilson's opinion of GVF and we'll be missing on crucial element. Steven Wilson.

We can exchange opinions, we can clarify our points, we can changed our minds, we can apologize for taking too negative a stance and modify our approach, we can offer evidence, we can come back later when we remember something we meant to bring up. And the opinion being discussed is static, with no means of defense or explanation. What's the point, other than an opportunity to shit on someone?

I thought that WAS the point? Either to step in an agree with SW that GVF is shit, or to call SW shit for having his opinion? What other possible conversation was going to play out in this scenario?
