Like a story can literally beat someone over the head with a theme or moral and people somehow come to the opposite conclusion?

It’s like “Tyler Durden is so manly and cool” except every bit of media feels like it’s misinterpreted like that now.

    I asked ChatGPT about this and it assured me everything was fine.

    People have thought Romeo and Juliet was a great love story since forever ago, so not sure, honestly shrug-outta-hecks I don’t think it helps that things like literary criticism and everything else adjacent to media analysis is de-emphasized because it doesn’t make money. You’re supposed to think the curtains were fucking blue and nothing more.
