    I mean, they’re not my top choice either, but there’s a HIGE difference in your approach, “not my cup of tea”, and the gatekeeper approach of “it’s not real reeee”. Everyone has taste, but there’s some kind of weird pride over something being metal, or not metal, and it’s just super shitty to attack something someone loves, just because it’s not your thing.

      Heard.

      My point was their fandom swings the other direction too.

        I mean, that’s fair. I don’t think that’s a valid reason to go gatekeeper, just live and let live, but I get it.

          Oh shit I’m not gatekeeping or trying to, I was just conversing with ya. I say listen to whatever gets you off

          I’ve seen what you’re saying for sure though but I argue it’s anyone who is passionate about something likes to walk their garden off and throw up a gate.

            I know you’re not, personally. I’m just providing counterargument.

            My counterargument to that is, why wall your garden off? Why not share the beauty you’ve found or built with others? Maybe see what their gardens are like?
