I would love to debate your definition of art pop , but it's trying so hard to be clever it just ends up being totally meaningless.
I mean let's look at your definition

art pop is a term I confabulated out of my proverbial cobwebs on the spot. It's a term that for me describes more so an effect the artist/band has socially that constitutes a resulting clique mentality.

In what way?
Any band could claim to have what could be considered 'a clique mentality' That's why you buy t shirts and sing along at gigs.
A band's image? it's message? it's politics? it's fashion? all of them? none of them?
You're being far to vague on this.

It's a phenomenon that attaches and best lends itself to a commercial popularity drawn form a pseudo intellectual underground which is in reality neither.

You could have just written 'commercial' and saved yourself some time here , assuming that's what is you meant. If it isn't then perhaps you can clarify this as well.

I believe in identifying responsibility rather than the premise. The measure of anything is best taken from result rather than appearance.

Pardon ?
Sorry but in this context this means absolutely nothing unless you are prepared to explain it.

Bottom Line: ANY music that has a reputation that is popular enough to proceed it demands the sincerest of scrutiny from me as a listener and long time musical appreciator.

I think that most people here would consider themselves something of that sort. I don't really see why it needs spelling out though, and it doesn't really tell us anything about what you are trying to define.

Might try actually defending your position there boo boo.

Until you define what you are talking about with something more concrete I don't really see what Boo Boo has to defend.
