It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
The Beatles were the first band to accumulate a large, consumerist fanbase like we know of modern day examples ranging from Taylor Swift, to the niche bands. Their music is genuinely pretty good (Rubber Soul is their best album imo) and doesn't really sound too dated.
Lists of artists considered the best do often feature the Beatles at the very top, but that is both a regional preference geared towards the mostly American internet user-base and commercial film-making capacities and a circlejerk written to earn money, not inform. Other parts of the world might not care about music that's apparently well liked in Anglo countries, among music nerds or the public. Also, subjective quality does not guarantee the band being seen as better. For example, the band De/Vision is imo a better Depeche Mode copycat than Camouflage imo, but it's the latter who had commercial success.
Really, the greatest [x] artist rankings are kinda useless, especially in music - but I'm just rambling.
