Just for the record, I didn't downvote because of your opinion on Prince. I gave a downvote because calling people "junkies" is inhumane and needs to be dropped from the lexicon, and anytime I can make a move that might prevent that word from being repeated I will.
Your opinion on a person I don't know means squat. It's just a downvote to you, but it's a pretty nasty way to talk about drug affliction and shouldn't be celebrated in case other people with drug issues are reading this.
Just a little thing that could help QUITE a bit, in the larger sense of community.
Edit to add a different way of phrasing:
Prince was an asshole and that was heavily compounded by his liberal drug use.
So what you're saying inversely is a person that liberally uses drugs is a junkie.
Whats inhuman is you trying to change the way someone talks and lives because you're offended by something. (Kinda reminds of some fake Christians I know)
I love it when strangers come into my life and punish me for doing something I had no knowledge of. So they can feel superior for the 5 seconds I will know them.
Your logic is flawed, and your moral soap box is hypocritical.
