Some truth about Molly
What they were answering

"Ah, the delicate subject of EDM! Ok, Here's our philosophy: There is good in everything if you are willing to search for it. That being said, the EDM fury either in Canada or the US doesn't really make me angry because i like to live and let live. Music tastes are quite similar to choices in ones' diet. EDM is pushed on kids by the "media" like junkfood in mainstream media..Everyone likes a little junkfood here and there, but there are people who eat Mcdonalds' 10 times a week because they don't care about their health and don't want to educate themselves on better ways of nutrition. The same goes for music genres. There will always be the junk in every genre, and maybe sometimes it's enjoyable. But it's up to the person to further educate themselves on "feeding" on the better aspects of Electronic music. It is also up to the Djs/Producers to push/make good music giving them more than just the junk."

Exactly. I can appreciate well made music in any genre. I may not like it personally. However, I can appreciate the effort and thought put into it. I think what you are getting at is that the newer crowd does not stop to appreciate the music for what it is. They just take in whatever the popular stuff that is pushed on them at the time. The same goes for drugs. Appreciating the effects and idiosyncrasies of the different substances and how they act on our brains is a big part of their use.
