Imagine how many MeToo accusations this nigga dodged or squashed with his tenured clout

fucking disgusting ass jew pig, i hope he squirms under the 9th circle in perpetuity as he is forced to watch dante walk asymptotically away from him forever while he screams out pleading bromides about clinamen that the alighieri chuckles at

Not very many considering the only one was by Naomi Wolf years before #MeToo was even a thing, and she herself said it hadn't affected her that much. Sure, Bloom shouldn't have done that in the first place, but he's no Weinstein either.

It was pretty intriguing to see someone so dedicated to a single piece of work. I finally started to read Hamlet because of him. Probably some others down the road like Don Quixote.

Wolf accused him of placing his hand on her thight. Yale dismissed the accusation and Bloom denied it. You can look it up on google. For all we know, Bloom could have done that (or not), but had he been an actual predator he would have been drowned under the accusations already, and he hasn't.

As someone from the old world this guy is unironically too anglocentric. The fucking Western Canon is bloated to hell with middling hacks from the US.

I hate the fact that he always had that suffering face in photos. It's peak pseud. Poor fellow americans thinking he's their best critic.

Man, Bloom is either boring as shit, or stupid as shit. His pathologising of ALL literature to a reductive Freudianism is stupid. I don’t know why anyone would take him seriously. Equally, his canon is about as interesting as listening to an 8 year old pick their dream cricket XI. dreck.
