The promised follow-up questions (two of them in fact)

What have you been most right about? (The world may or may not have caught up to you on this)

Does being seen as "wrong" or "right" about music by other people bother you much?

frank, how would you assess the situation if (1) just completely dropped out of it?

you are obviously quite intent on keeping it in there, but it seems that people you would like to fault for their opinions about any of the relevant entertainers (often for stuff related to (2), on your end and theirs) will absolutely refuse - basically everything, refuse to consider, refuse to think, refuse to be convinced, refuse to ignore without sneering, refuse to give a pass to for 'non-musical' reasons - if you do keep it. i wonder what effect it has on the larger conversational and social stuff, and whether it has to.

by 'dropped out' i don't mean 'you stop believing that the music is great', but 'you stop insisting that it is to unsympathetic interlocutors'.
