For example, people who try to equate liking ABBA with being musically unsophisticated or with having some sort of pro-corporate, terrorist loving worldview. Or people who equate not liking ABBA with having "taste".
This problem goes beyond music. There seems to be a certain attitude people have towards everything (music,movies,sports) which is: I personally don't like it therefore it sucks, and anyone who likes it sucks and is shallow, brainwashed, immature, etc etc etc.
I don't specifically care much for ABBA, but I know my day is brightened if I happen to hear the Cars "Just What I Needed" on the radio. But normally I listen to .
