I hope I never meet anyone who unironically listens to classical music because they have to be the most insane people ever.
Some of it's actually legit. And if you transpose certain periods for modern guitar/bass and drums, you effectively get something that just sounds like metal.

The people that I've learned to be leery of are those who listen to it while also bashing anything "contemporary" as though it's all "lesser than".

...what? The stigma of snobbery aside - elitism is rampant in all subcultures - classical music enjoyers are regular people just like with any other style of music

The true insanity lies not in enjoying an arbitrary style of music, but in not understanding that some people will like different things than you

“Classical” music is fine, especially modern iterations like the Hollow Knight soundtrack

Very nice and all, but Rap isn't music and yet people call it music, how does that fit into your ideology?

if you believe there to be an issue, I feel like you didn't understand the idea to begin with. Enjoy what you enjoy and let others do the same - why waste time on pointless debates doomed to go nowhere?

I have my preferences and opinions on music and what I would call music too, but so does everyone else. Who's to say who's supposedly right? It doesn't really matter. Everyone has an opinion, but who can actually back theirs up beyond the superficial?

tangentially, I've had my share of excellent discussions on the topic, especially with professionals who tend to look at things more methodically, with a wider and experienced lens, and actually engaging in the discussion.

Most of the time however it's emotionally blinded handwaving though, starting already entrenched with statements like "this is always terrible / the best" or "I would never consider this music"; never elaborating, never budging, never discussing. Whether there are good ideas to be considered - or lessons learned - is always lost if there is no proper exchange to begin with after all

Anyways I digress big time for manga forums, moving on... :aquadrink::aquadrink:

Different people like different things and nobody have the rights to judge others preferences.
Got that through your thick skull?
A very politically incorrect answer. Thank you Mr. Not a Politician for saying so much in so few words.

I used to listen to classical music a lot. Now I prefer metal more.

Oh, and I am actually sort of insane, but that's independent of my music preferences.

Taste in music is subjective, but calling Rap "not-music" is objectively incorrect.

And the fact you follow this up with calling another person's response "politically correct" is all sorts of Dog Whistle-y from you, and is really not a good look in the year 2025.

Learn to be more opaque with your prejudice, if you're gonna be this way online.

Nice fearmongering, you know why the world is so full of people doing bad things? Because it's illegal to talk openly, both by law and by peer pressure.

It's only once something bad becomes "common knowledge" and is "publicly acknowledged" that you are allowed to say something bad is bad, even if it's objectively bad someone will say you're out of line saying it is.
