RE: OPEN MIC WEEK 75 - original song 'Opinions'

in #openmic6 years ago

Man, this fits perfectly here! I think a lot of people can relate to the lyrics especially in this platform filled with so many "experts". In my opinion there are people who have the right to speak about certain topics, since they're in the know because of their experience and such. Other people are passing off their opinions as facts, proclaiming themselves as experts just because they've read quite a few resources about the topic they're talking about. Great choice for your debut to the competition, brother! I've always thought that you would dominate that open mic competition, and this is a great example proving my point. If @dreemit ever decides to do audiobook versions of her books, I'm sure that you're raspy pipes would be great for that. I know I'm surely down for that for my own stories!

Sort:  

You got it! I don't mind educated opinions. Or even different opinions, educated or not. I'm just tired of mass media regurgitation. And debate wars over the same 3 topics with always the same damn arguments to prove a point.

Information can be an extremely valuable thing. Incorrect information can be a dangerous thing. But the most dangerous thing is selective information. At the very least least incorrect information can be proven wrong. Selective information can't be proven wrong, therefore is misleading.

It's kind of like instead of lying, not telling the whole truth. which worked wonders for me as a teenager staying out of trouble an all, but pisses me off now!

Thanks again for your support, brother!
