its not the music that I hate as much as the suggestive styles. Musical styles rub off on people in ways that can include: angry, horny, apathetic, sad, slutty, dumb, insecure, conservative, liberal etc. So the point that i'm thinking of is that lyrics aren't the only thing that matters. It's more of a style thing that I worry about today. Tougher rap makes tougher thugs. Non-creative rock makes careless, brainless zombies. Country makes conservatives. Screamo, Emo, and Industrial can inspire anger, anxt and evilness. Etcetera
Even if music isn't a direct influence on people. The musical subcultures (scenes) and friend's that listen to a particular band can be an strong influence.
The state of music today is bad because people who have conditioned themselves to like a musical type played on the radio are less likely to condition themself to a new style. And it just so happens that I hear mainly crap on the radio today.
