one of the major changes in media criticism online in the last half decade is that when people used to do big leftist critiques of why harry potter sucks they always had a disclaimer like "now this doesn't mean i think you're a bad person for enjoying the books." they dont really do that any more

There is a style of criticism and even narrative writing that was obsessed with hedging one’s bets against bad actors on the internet. If anything else the state of the world has trained most normal people that this is a waste of everyone’s time, especially the writers.

while there's definitely truth in this i think in this specific case there's a bigger elephant in the room lol
