Ok, I love the Gorillaz. They are amazing. This is how a certian conversation went.
Girl: What is your favorite band?
Me: Gorillaz.
Girl: That is the cartoon band right?
Me: Well, their music videos are animated.
Girl: Ya they suck.
Me: Have you ever listened to them?
Girl: No, any band that is a cartoon cant be good.
Me: That does not make since. Damon Albourne (The guy behind Gorillaz) is the frontman and an excellent compalation musician.
Girl: Dont care, they are cartoons so they are bad.
No offense, but that conversation sounds a liiiiiiiiiiiittle stretched, but I'll let it go because it sounds fairly likely with how much people discriminate against cartoons.(*Goes to room and cries about lack of friends*)
I discriminate based on genre a LOT, I HATE rap and country music with a passion. But on occasion I hear a decent rap or country song, it's just super rare.
To finish, I agree, people have stupid reasons for the things they think and do. Once you lower your standards of an average human to around the nazi level you will be impressed with how nice and thoughtful they are.
