> Some like that, I'm out.

And a third group couldn't care less either way.

I have a few decades on my back, I am a father, a husband, a nerd... I once was young too, believe it or not, and I had ideals and I fought for them.

If you don't participate in this, why does it bother you? Unless they are active around your doorstep, that is.

Couldn't agree more with this. Having ideals and principles isn't a bad thing, we all do.

Fair point, I am with you on that. I guess just had a bad first impression on drama that I've seen as a spectator through the public channels that stuck.

That could be repaired, just don't care enough to spend time there again I guess.

I for one am thankful for their warning. Saved me precious time.

Suggestions about cool projects are just as important as warnings about uncool projects.

Yes, it's just that I don't deem them uncool.

Same as art by Hitler... if I would like it, I would like it, doesn't matter that I think he was one of the worst human beings.

So: I just argued, that there is a third way to view it.

You may, of course, see it completely differently and deem this project "uncool" for whatever reasons you want!
