#just stumbled into the notes on a post and holy fuck the thinly veiled racism and overt misogyny was truly disgusting#it's been a while since I've blocked that many people so quickly when it wasn't neonazis or terfs#also. the fucking pretentiousness#watching a bunch of kids and barely adults talk about how they only read REAL literature! not that ghastly ya drivel 😤#and they've moved on to mature and sophisticated stories for the morally pure (aka only stories without fucking or violence)#and trying to oversimplify a HUGE recurring problem into a nearly victim blaming ''they had it coming'' explanation#i really hope someday folks can just say ''i didn't like it'' and leave it at that#the way some of them are reaching trying to justify why something didn't work for them is getting ridiculous#like. an author is not a horrible person or a terrible writer who doesn't deserve to be published just because *you* didn't like their book#i hate plenty of beloved books and can't stand the stories produced by a number of extremely popular authors#but I'm also not so arrogant as to believe *my* tastes should be shared by everyone or should be the standard by which all books are judged#fucking hell. just stop reading it if you hate it? or just say you hated it and then move on?#the author isn't morally reprehensible for daring to achieve some level of success by writing a book you didn't like
