Sometimes I don't know if my opinions are my own or ones derived from the meta. For example, I used to post about Childish Gambino alot, but people kept saying mean things so I stopped posting it. Now I don't like it as much. It would be simple to say the meta affected me, yet may it not also be the other way around? By posting Childish Gambino so much I created the anti-Gambino meta at the time. I think now that the effect of myself pales in comparison to my effect on the meta. Since that time I have been fascinated with memes, meta and psychology..I have been working tirelessly to affect the meta in such a way to have my own opinions more represented. The only thing I worry about, still, is that my opinions are themselves the product of meta.

It's good you're trying to be this self aware dude, but don't forget that nobody can ever be truly self aware.
It's bizarre but nobody's opinions really do seem to come from anywhere but from other places, I feel like. At this point though, for me at least, I'm doing what I can to keep /mu/ from being the place that my opinions come from (which I'm doing a terrible job at, and plus many come from bullshit like scaruffi as well). All I can really say though is to not let yourself become too wrapped up in it, it isn't something that is good to be affected by (which you are aware of) but don't let yourself become too much a part of the system at least.

That self awareness bit is what wittgenstein defended, you can never percieve yourself completely, your scope is always more limited than what you are, your mind doesnt work outside its limits, the same way we cant percieve anything outside of the universe without leaving it

If you follow someone taste against your own, you really deserve to end your life right now.
So what no ones likes what you like? You want to follow other opinion to follow a meta? Fuck you.
I understand what you're saying and it makes complete sense. There's definitely some sort of strange psychology to study into around these parts when it comes to what is deemed as higher quality or not and all the rest.
because the internet is a good album

Take a break, OP.
And don't let this shitty ass board affect your taste in music.
Gambino is a great artist. He's my favorite, actually.
