Top Ten Reasons Why Metal Elitists Suck

You already have seen someone in the internet, haven't you? If not you're lucky. METAL ELITISTS are these people who say what bands are "metal" which are not. If you're one these people please get open minded & if not enjoy some great food and this list.
The Top Ten
1 They make regular metal fans look close minded

I know, right?! There are so many elitists in the metal community and now we look bad. Because just like every fandom and community, there's going to be one type of person that brings some form of toxicity to the group, and that toxicity is out of our control.

You should have removed "metal" from this list's title and made it about all elitists in general. Pop elitists exist, too, but they don't seem to be getting criticized as much as metal elitists, when they have the same problems.

Indeed. And I swear "poser" is their favourite word.

What a hypocritical username.

2 Most of them are just teens

You found this new underground Black Metal band which sounds actually bad but everybody
in your school listens to Megadeth?
- Well I can understand you're "angry acain"
because nobody likes your favorite music.

Is it maybe because the band doesn't have a
good production on their demos?

So what if they are teens? They can still enjoy their music and know a lot about it.But all the other reasons are correct.Metal elitists just suck.-TheCoolGuy1

3 They frequently only hate on the internet

Basically in Youtube they're all like DEATH TO ALL GAY EMO POSERS! DEATH TO CORE! DEATH TO MAINSTREAM! WAGE WAR AGAINST THEM! TRUE METAL SHALL LIVE ON!
But in real life, they're actually more respectful, like it's not their kind of music, but they'd say is alright

4 They know nothing about metal
5 They don't know how the music industry works
6 Their taste in music

I mean I'd rather listen to underground thrash, death, and black metal than deathcore

They'd rather listen to poorly produced demo casettes of unknown bad thrash bands of the 80s
than a good Suicide Silence album.

7 They're rules to be "trve" are just weird

What does "trve" even mean?

8 They have an excuse for everything

Normal Metalhead:"Oh, you have an OCEANO
album? I thought you hate Deathcore? "

Elitist:"Yeah, I hate deathcore but they play
Progressive Blackened Death Metal, you know."

9 They aren't open minded

Just saying, you can listen to metal but also listen to hip hop and still be a metalhead. Just because you're a metalhead doesn't mean you have to solely listen to metal.

They say they are open minded, but tell is that there are bands we should avoid, and judge bands by their genres.

10 They give metal heads a bad name

Almost the same as "They make regular fans look close minded"

The Contenders
11 They annoy everybody
12 They insult people for their taste in music

Metal Elitist: Pop fans need to learn to respect opinions!
Metal Elitist: So what genres do you like?
Normal person: A few of them are pop-
Metal Elitist: Lol pop sucks and so does your taste in music. Listen to metal and if you still like pop go die.

13 Their arguments are biased and don't have any proper logic or reasoning to back it up.

Elitists, if you say "Metalcore is not metal because it's got both metal AND hardcore punk influences." then by that logic, you'd be saying thrash isn't metal either because it's also got influences of both punk and metal.

It's worth noting I don't listen to a lot of metalcore.

14 They watched a youtube video and they think they know more about music than anyone in the world
