Shhh, don't stir the elitists.

Wouldn't it be a little hypocritical to belittle the people who you are criticizing for belittling? Shhhh.

I don't say those things (ie: your taste is shit) so nah. I'm more of a hipster, as in I like stuff that isn't popular or highly rated but I still like trashy popular shows sometimes.

Well, I admit... I do have an excellent taste in characters and everyone that doesn't agree with me has shit taste. :P

But, other than that... I have the "different strokes for different folks" mentality. Though, it makes it hard to talk to people with completely different taste than mine. That's the only problem I have here.

As for me now, I don't really care what types of shows my friends watch. I know we have different tastes in anime or in whatever things we do so I make it a point to myself that I don't judge others based on what they watch.

(But I used to be an anime elitist when I first stumbled across the anime community XD And I didn't deny it back then :3)

You know everyone judges everyone, I mean we unconsciously do this even if we don't say this out loud.
It's how the human brain works.

But for those who do say it out loud, you are shit loljk :V

I've never been one to judge another because of preference in a series. My own taste is decently diverse for someone of their specific age and gender—or so I've been told.

Don't you have anything better to do than belittling these kind of people? These buzz words such as 'elitist', and 'oh that anime was pretentious af' keep floating around this site. It's like cancer that most people incorrectly use or they're used without a legitimate basis. Arguing and judging others based on preferences/tastes in anime is absurd. Sometimes people need to realise that they should get a life and move on.

Well In that case pretty much every single one of us is an elitist.
Stop twisting the definition of elitism and applying it in your own ways.

An anime elitist is someone who conforms to a certain archetype who subscribe to the idea that what they watch (which is general shows that require an effort from the viewer to interpret) makes them smarter than everyone else.

Someone who says that their taste is better than another particular individuals taste is is just an asshat..

It's pretty much normal for people to be judgemental. I can act a bit cynical and critical at times (sometimes even being the wrong moment!) However, I'm generally considerate with other people's taste. I mean, I have a lot of internet friends that like animes I hate very much. I even have a very close friend (who's a guy) that likes SAO, and I freaking despise that anime. But at the end of the day, I'm very tolerable with what he likes, especially when he likes animes out of his own enjoyment (There would be no point in getting critical)

Is it just me or there have been more discussions with people complaining about elitist than the amount of elitist that are actually active in this website? I mean, I've barely seen any elitist around lately but I've seen a lot of these discussions.

Just checked out your anime list and I swear, we are twins. The animes you hate, I pretty much hate as well but damn, you're so harsh on Black butler, Zankyou no terror and Erased xD Still respect (and like) your list nonetheless :)

Only inferior bitches need to confirm their superiority over the rabble. Why should I bash others taste to begin with? I think it is enough pain for them staring at my godly taste and try to compare with theirs.

If someone has nothing better to do with their life than bash someone else's taste, just ignore them. It betrays their idiocy at the notion that taste can even be good or bad in the first place. Hint - it can't.

It's just an incredibly childish fallback method - if you can't refute someone's argument, just say their taste is shit and call it a day.
It's an entirely different kind of flying, altogether!
