A kung fu fighter in a disco

I think my answer to the second question is sort of bound up in theories about culture and politics - i.e., my ideal is that everyone listens to whatever* they want, across a level playing field. However, we don't have that level playing field. We have a field in which hierarchies exist but they're often invisible-ised, for want of a better term. So one sometimes has to make a conscious effort to extend the range of the types of people who make the music you listen to, in order to achieve an actual normality, rather than the illusory normality which is in fact heavily influenced by (often quite subtle) social/cultural/political inequalities and 'isms'.

*Except the Kilroy Chiefs, obviously.
