there was very little in this book that felt groundbreaking, like an entirely new way of thinking. but that’s because i’m reading this 4 years after it was published, and in the last 4 years this book has shaped so much of our popular culture and our cultural criticism that it has instead become the new baseline. instead of feeling like something new, i felt like i was finally reading the words that had hung around me for almost half a decade.
