You've described some of your preferences, but you didn't describe at all how you're being marginalized; it sounds more like you're attempting to marginalize everyone else and their interests.

It's hard to effectively communicate with a lot of people when their lives are driven around consumer (media and other) culture. There's just a fundamental disconnect. And (at least around here) that's a large percentage, if not the majority, of folks.

From their perspective, it's more like

"It's hard to communicate when someone is anti-consumer, and thinks the fact I watch TV is a reflection on my values"
