The only reason you should waste your time critiquing a genre is if you actually want to see it get better. You do that by picking out the best and explaining why that succeeds over everything else. If you actually believe that all genre fiction is bad (which it is), then it's utterly pointless to write critically about it, because it's not possible to pick out the best.

mystes posted:One of my English teachers in high school had some convoluted made up pet theory in which "magic realism" didn't even refer to the fantastic elements in books like 100 Years of Solitude, just so he could be able to say that magic realism is awesome art but not have to admit to liking anything that was not purely realistic. Wait, so your teacher had problems admitting his enjoyment of literally any literary movement but 19th century realism?
