This is an interesting article. I have to admit that I enjoyed Catcher in the Rye a lot as a kid and I still have a nostalgic attachment to it despite its obvious problems. Cormac McCarthy too is an author whose stuff I enjoy.https://twitter.com/hkatewilliams/status/1356186624166649856 …

I think there is a middle ground for critiques of the "western canon" and how these books are held up as pinnacles of literature and how white straight men ID with these heavily without interrogating the problems while also acknowledging that everyone else can enjoy them.

like the phrase let people enjoy things is applicable here, although it should not be used as a shield to deflect from criticism but I do dislike the leftist purity test of what media people enjoy. You can and should be critical of stuff you like.
