Europe doesn’t export its best wine to America. They keep it for themselves. There are a lot of things you can’t experience unless you have the resources to access them. And if you are lucky enough to experience those things, and you value those things, you often get accused of snobbery. There really are finer things in life, from exquisitely constructed music to exquisitely prepared food.
If you don’t like those things, that’s fine. But it doesn’t mean that excellence doesn’t exist. If Shakespeare, Beethoven, and Coltrane are boring to you that doesn’t mean that I am an asshole for thinking they are awesome.
