This is basically just New Criticism but with Adam Baldwin instead of T.S. Eliot. Yikes. Reinventing the wheel and getting it wrong.

@nostalgebraist Ok so who are the theorists of#gamergate? Not new crit, nor Clement Greenberg formalism.. who are your published scholars?
@SamFateKeeper wood's attack is philosophical and theoretical but who are his "scholars"? No one asked at the time. Not how that convo works

@SamFateKeeper or of course "against interpretation," pub'd in a lit mag not acad journal, discussed academics but followed none. Invalid? -
@nostalgebraist All I'm hearing is: you don't know contemporary theory but you think you know it better than anyone else. Such arrogance. -
@SamFateKeeper huh? I'm saying a certain sort of discussion typically ignores theory & always has, even in lit&film. -
@SamFateKeeper e.g. no one complains when james wood makes a point about how criticism should be done, w/o an academic imprimatur -
@SamFateKeeper haven't claimed I know ( or don't know) anything about academic theory itself
