Being "guilted" is not an act others do to you, it's a mind-state you inflict on yourself.
>The real question is, if they find it annoying, why do you care?
I don't care if anyone finds anything annoying. But I do care when someone waxes useless about it on a forum that is supposed to generate meaningful discussion.
>it's about imposing the choice upon you via bombardment, guilt, perceived righteousness, etc.
Again, these are all things you yourself give permission to affect you.
>Surely you can understand the level at which society accepts/approves of certain actions has value? And if you do, how does one derive that level sans discussion?
Go back and look at OP's comment, and then look at your comment that I replied to. The "point" both you and OP have made is that elitism is annoying. You gave no commentary on "the level at which society accepts/approves of certain actions". You literally only said that elitism is annoying. Might as well have said that the sky is blue.
