outside of the actual indie rock community there seems to be a general loathing for indie rock, and I know it isn't so much as genre as a music movement of sorts but eh

I don't think most people know what goregrind is, so I wouldn't put it as the most hated genre. I would think most would hate it if they heard the music.

Hated is to strong of a word but I sicnerely belive extreme death metal and the like are some of the most disliked music. It has a loyal fanbase but if youre not a fan of the genre and hasnt listened alot to it you dont get it.
If youre at a party and play a death meal tune be sure someone changes it within seconds or people just leave the room.
Most everything else seems tollerable to most even if they dont like it but alot of people just have a ahrd time listening to extreme metal.
Im xcluding small genres such as Noise or these super crazy Jazz things that sounds like noise to most people.

It doesn't even have to be death metal. You could put some Iron Maiden or Running Wild on and usually get a negative reaction.

Its true to some extent but people can seem to take more melodic or well known stuff. Metallica, Iron Maiden and even stuff like System of a Down seems to be ok with people sometimes - probably because they recognize it.
Anything more extreme tends to get a very negative reaction while every other kind of music seems to be tollerated more.

I find it facepalm worthy that people enjoy shit like SOAD but can't appreciate actual good metal.

Exactly. I work with a guy who loves KoRn and has a sister that likes Immortal. The funniest thing I ever heard him say was that KoRn was "real metal" and that Immortal "isn't even music".

I find it unsurprising and predictable, but there is a slight possibility I might be a hugely misanthropic snob when it comes to interpersonal relations.

Wow just wow. Then again he's a big KoRn fan, I would expect to hear that from him.

Its not strange:
* Its repeatd on the radio
* It has hooks
Whatever you or I think of them thats the main thing. People accept stuff that is constantly heard and that they can sing along to in one way or another (or dance to). Im quite surprised SAOD made it into the relative mainstream since the music is very jumpy, disjointed or spasmodic even though it has its hooks as well.
