If you really like Gaga, that's fine. But I'd have to say that's some shit music you like right there.

It's not like I'm asking people to change their opinions because they love pop music, I'm saying that I'm not going to be inclined to respect their tastes in music. I don't really have to.
And my thesis is that you're wrong. First of all, what makes Gaga manufactured? Second, what makes "product" art worse than "art" art? How can you tell what is meant to be product and what is meant to be art? Your method of arguing your own thesis consists of sticking your fingers in your ears and saying "LALALALALALA" really loudly.
