There is literally nothing wrong with poptimism. So, if I got this straight...
Rockism:
>Judging music based on arbitrary made up standards that are unrealted to music and have never been supported by anyone other than a few vague implications made up by a couple of journalists and autistic "music fans."
Poptimism:
>Giving all music a fair chance and judging it based on its musical merit regardless of how it's marketed, it's target demographic, or how it was produced
Can someone please explain to me why poptimism is considered a bad thing again? Or why it's even considered an antonym to rockism? Is it just misogyny? Or is it racism? Or is it both?
You know there is more music than just rock or pop, right?

You realize rockism doesn't mean "likes rock music" and poptimism doesn't mean "likes pop music" right?
Why don't you understand a lot of us are autistic and hate popular things because we can't associate ourselves with them or some stupid subconscious shit
"Poptimism" is just code for "the media pushing garbage black music on impressionable 14-24 year old white kids"

Definitely. I mean, have you heard 1989? Fucking 10/10

I mean I actually love 1989 hahaha
Poptimism and rockism are lazy. You cant fully experience mysic by accepting the mainstream industry as is.

Because to OP there is no such thing as personal preference and all the dislike stems from some deep-seated hatred for the person because of their race/gender. Just b8ing us into yelling at them and confirming their bias.
