Yep. Glad there are increasingly more "academic" medievalists who are making the point clear across many domains e.g. @heyouonline @KVMFinn @ProfCWhit @dorothyk98 @ricutz & many more

Absolutely correct. That's why it's so important to have different voices demonstrating that even affective response doesn't all fall into the same patterns. I do feel like we're early enough in the process of theorizing medievalism that we can diverge from that toxicity.

The toxicity happens often. So maybe it's also about practicing not to be toxic. I would also say, the thing I am interested in is a decolonized medievalism that's been there, that's been happening but not discussed. And then an attendance to medium critique.

Yeah, and that's more what I mean about how the people in it (fandom; medieval studies) interact with each other. The patterns of the way discussions happen, and who in that group is having which discussions.

Totally. I have a burning desire to write the article that shows the parallels around discussions of race, but haven’t found a way to manage the ethics of doing so about things I’ve been part of on the medievalist side.
