My journal would probably fall more into the pretentious/overwrought category than most, but then I always expected it to be seen that way. And those are also the journals I tend to enjoy reading the most. I like to write, and that's what my journal's for. You've got a different perspective.
A matter of taste, perhaps?
The literal definition of a word like journal or diary or art for that matter, usually doesn't mean much to people who fancy themselves artists...
I agree about the politics - though I think that's something that any community or (sub) culture has to deal with.
