Are you a special snowflake?


We all know you're special. But special enough to be the Thought Police? What aspects of audio performance do you grant us the right to discuss? Why is it okay for you to insult, to call us shills, to call the things we value snake oil, ridicule and demean and broadcast your particular and peculiar points of view, but we don't have the right to argue the opposing view? 

Are you really a special snowflake? Or are you just another audiophile with a different point of view? No better, nor worse, than any other.

What is it you feel gives you the right to tell others Shut Up!?

To clarify your position, you would like the people who tell you to “shut up” to also shut up? I’m not entirely sure that your argument is self consistent.
Further I’m not sure something as subjective as audio reproduction can always be argued as opposing points of view. One person’s experience does not dictate another’s best practice, results may vary. The nature of the hobby has multiple redundant paths to satisfaction.
I’m not sure who called you names or hurt your feelings, but it will be ok. I’m sorry not everyone appreciates your specific denomination of audio evangelism. Sometimes people on the internet are wrong. This does not make it your responsibility to correct them.
Enjoy your system tonight.
