      Seeing a lot of hate/backlash for Sarah Cooper on the TL lately and wondering how much is from ppl who first saw her in July or August, instead of April or May before it was EVERYONE'S FAVORITE GENIUS THING which is always gonna color your expectations..

      Along with it, after a certain point, coming into people's orbit as "that thing The Libs are all going ga-ga for"

      Anyway I won't deny some ppl go overboard with "brilliant work of genius" talk, but I've done enough talking into a camera to know she's doing something deft and skillful with it, and "she's not even doing anything she's just lip-syncing" is equally silly to me

          I think the main problem I’ve seen people having with it isn’t so much “she’s bad” as “she’s amplifying a demagogue’s lies”

          People who say that probably see themselves on camera and freak out about what it turns out their faces are doing while they talk.

          i do think that’s how we all work, to some degree, unfortunately. you see a thing getting hyped, you put it in a “just lipsynching” box, and then you stop engaging with it, and instead engage with the box you’ve put it in and your feelings about that

          It's how I work as much as anybody, and I try to be aware of that so I can give things a fair shot :) back in the day I didn't listen to OK Computer for like 2 years after it came out, cuz I knew I'd be looking for reasons to hate after the hype reached a certain level

          People who don't want to understand a work of art—not even like it, but refuse to try and understand it—won't.
