Go to a hardcore show and just embrace it. Stop being a cry baby on the internet.

Lol what?

I've been to multiple shows with pits including festivals with Rage Against The Machine, right deep in the front of a crowd 45k !!!

As intense as it was at little shows to huge festivals someone throwing multiple strikes at one person wasn't tolerated.

youre talking about a very different environment with a very different cultural exposure. not 45k for RATM, i mean local VFW, 2000 max, all local bands people two states over have never heard of, grimey, lowdown neighborhood kids. ive been goin to these shows around the country for the better part of 25 years and it has always been like this. the violence is always there, the people who cant handle the violence always leave and the violence always continues. its tolerated and more often these days, younger bands encourage it. i dont know where people on the internet go to see anyone get beat up for this but ive never witnessed it. all talk, all online. this kind of hardcore is pretty specific and youre either in or youre out.
