Share youtube, songwhip, spotify, bandcamp links, music memes, album art, articles, whatever! But avoid links to directly download music (don't want to get Lemmy.world in trouble). Songwhip links always appreciated!
See this post on recs on how to post!
The Golden Rule: Music taste is subjective so don't be a gatekeeping asshole. There's no "bad music", only music you like or don't like.
We Are A Community: So no racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, or spam.

Consider me out of the loop... What?
Emily Armstrong, Chester's replacement, is a member of the Scientology cult and supported Danny Masterson, another Scientology member, during his trial where he was eventually found guilty of raping several other Scientology members. The cult sent out their goon squads to harass the rape victims during the trial, one of which is the wife of another ex Scientology member, Cedric Bixler-Zavala, which they also poisoned & killed two of their dogs. Armstrong put out some PR statement about her "regrets" for supporting a "friend" at that time - no word about the cult they're both members of, of course.
TL:DR a victim of sexual assault as a child who eventually took his own life over it was replacement by a cult member who supported an actual rapist. And Linkin Park is happily censoring the comment sections of their videos of any mention of it (same with the LP subreddit mods as far as I have heard).
Holy shit. But thanks for the answer.
