True. Every year, it's some band or someone loosely associated with a band that manages to set people off with some kind of joke post. XelegyX, Inclination, and I think Year Of The Knife managed to do this in previous years. YOTK is one of the best "newer" Edge bands around IMO, I have Internal Incarceration here at home, hard hitting album. They opened last night at the Cali Takeover (Strife, Snapcase, Earth Crisis) show, and I actually picked that album up. Sounds much better than the previous compilation. Somewhere in amongst all the weird junk I've been carrying around with me all these years, there is a YOTK demo they originally handed out at TIHC 2015 when they first started. I'd like to find that and see if it plays at all (I picked up mine off the floor and it was scratched, if I recall). It's also the only recorded stuff with their old vocalist. I'm not sure if you can find that material anywhere for streaming or downloading. Their oldest 2 sets (the latter being 2016) with their old lineups are still on Hate5Six.

Not even a half a year and we're already back to doing the "yelling about Straight Edge on Twitter" bullshit.
The dude who made everyone mad this time is from my area. I should get him to post on here.

I still don't understand what "The Straight Edge community" is supposed to be in these weird arguments, as if all the Edge people just get into a room quarterly and discuss shit. I hate the tumblr-fication of the internet; after some 20 years of being Edge, I get to have a bunch of non-edge hardcore dropout twitter complainers tell me that I'm an asshole who sullies what Straight Edge is all about because I'm apparently supposed to do a certain amount of harm reduction or carry around narcan and remind everybody to get an Uber instead of drunk driving. Shit sucks, man.

it's not even worth engaging with. they aren't involved in any meaningful way, meaning they lack any level of context or understanding for the thing they're trying to shit talk. they won't try to engage with you on it and they sure as shit won't show up and fight you about it, so fuck them.

we need to settle all discourse with violence. lock an overweight alcoholic with anger issues in a room with some skinny bitch kid that can only bench 10 lbs listening to minor threat and see who gets fucked up worse.

Aw man, we don't really need to do that. That brand of Minor Threat-only edge kids that was around some 10 years ago was annoying, though.
I've always said Throwdown Edge kids > Minor Threat Edge kids. Every MT fan dude my age ended up breaking edge and becoming a craft beer nerd barbershop guy anyway.
