08:39 - Roman Doez

It's because they got absurdly popular over the last few years and with popularity always come detractors

03:06 - VileVick

I remember being surprised seeing that they were a good bit of people that hated Deftones with a fiery passion.

00:15 - Boxcar Willy

If you can’t see the hypocrisy in this I don’t know what to tell you

00:15 - A Real Mönkey

Man, dude gets triggered over the silliest things.

00:02 - corrupt

Also, why do you care where I draw my lines? I don't judge you for ignoring this shit, so why is it an issue for you when I don't?

23:59 - corrupt

Idk what "apologized in an interview" means (also, for what, exactly?), but once you engage in transphobia, I need more than a simple "sorry". That can cause existential damage, and Whirr were actively alienating fans for years

23:56 - corrupt

He served his time, seems genuinely changed, and will openly engage interviewers when questioned about his past. That's all I ask from bands. I'll change my mind about Whirr in a second of I see that level of accountability
