Re: das-sporking

[feotakahari]

The linked Livejournal baffles me. Beyond any resentment of things Green has or hasn't done to help minority writers, the author seems to resent him for existing as a white writer who's more popular than minority writers. It's like the author thinks it's inherently wrong and bad for a white writer to become so popular relative to this and that minority writer.

Also, since when is John Green the most influential YA writer? Does J.K. Rowling not count as a YA writer after she wrote one book for adults?

Re: das-sporking

The writer is doing a "sporking" or kind of analysis of John Green's books. And seems to be making a lot of suppostions about John Green and why he sucks instead of analyzing the text on it's own terms. I think it's leading to a lot of confirmation bias in whether his books are good or not.

Yeah, I'm not really sure where the YA fandom's hateboner for John Green came from but I've noticed that's it's pretty big.

KKKristians vs. Atheist Who Haz Science ??

John Green's not an atheist tho.

Agreed on your points. And the author seems to be using kettle logic. They make this comment:http://das-sporking.livejournal.com/824568.html?thread=21927160#t21927160 after showing a bunch of tweets where John Green does exactly that.

OP
I think you're right about the kettle logic. The whole thing is a mess.

Thanks to you, I learned something today...I had never heard of 'kettle logic' before. Thank you!
