The point of doing feminist or queer reads isn't to create some sort of good and pure alternate canon. It's to examine how ideas about gender and sexuality are expressed through a work. "This is problematic, let's have fun talking about it" is a good response.

I agree with this in general.

I think there's also an argument to be made for digging out the implicit values of the work of someone like Lovecraft and making them explicit as being valuable in and of itself.

True, on the other hand, fandoms thing of failing to separate creator from work leads to some amazingly petty bullshit.
