Ideological lens exist in every form of criticism. Criticism is subjective. That's like the whole thing. I'm not really interested in Watching How to Talk About Star Trek in a God Honoring Way myself. But you're kidding yourself if you think there isn't any ideological underpinnings of Fanboy YouTubers yelling about "Mary Sues".

I assure you I have a robust opinion on many topics that don't fall in line with Twitter orthodoxy and I've be 'cancelled' at least twice that I can think. But you might as well end this conversation by calling me a woke moralist and go back to reading Jordan Peterson or something.
