[making_excuses]

That is also a perfectly valid claim, I find it amusing that people on the internet will be all up in arms if anyone says they don't get how people can't read subtitles, but finding classic literature difficult is something you can make fun of?

I am not really taking anything personally, I felt like ranting, so I did. I even added the slightly off topic at the start to show that it was just an in general thing...

[sarillia]

I'm pretty sure the people who defend not reading subtitles aren't the same ones who make fun of people who claim classic literature is difficult. And in my experience, it's a pretty even split among people who will defend subtitle haters and people who will attack them. I haven't seen the internet be up in arms over that.

[making_excuses]

Not that discussion, the discussion that some people have issues reading subtitles because they can't read fast enough... Not the sub vs dub thing...

[sarillia]

That's what I'm talking about too. I haven't seen significantly more people defending those who have trouble reading subtitles than attacking them. Sadly.

[making_excuses]

Hm, then sorry for that. And now I am wondering which side you are on as apparently I can't read things and understanding them today... Which side are you on?

[sarillia]

I think that there are intelligent people who can't read very fast and that's fine and I also think there are not so intelligent people who can't read very fast and there's nothing wrong with that either. People are mean.

I don't get it...what does reading slowly have to do with claiming ACD is difficult? I have no problem with people who have difficulty with subs, but I will raise an eyebrow at people who whinge about how ACD's prose is incomprehensible.

[(Anonymous)]

DA

People who say that have clearly never read ACD.

[sarillia]

This is a tangent about arguments over people who can't read subtitles well because making_excuses was reminded of that. It doesn't have much to do with ACD.

I also disagree with people who say that ACD's writing is difficult to read but sometimes that's what the fans will assume they mean when they say they don't like it. It's another one of those cases where people aren't allowed to just dislike something, there has to be some justification. And some people rely on the reputation of Victorian literature for their justification.
