i consume a lot of “imperfect” media that sometimes rubs me the wrong way because it offers something else that engages me or i can just “death of the author” head canon the flaws away.

that being said i am a lot less tolerant with books specifically since im usually investing money and a lot mire focus and effort on them compared to casually watching tv. id say i definitely actively avoid books with such aspects i dont like. the way i see it, if its fiction it has little to offer me regarding what i look for in fiction, and if its nonfiction, i can just skim the content and assess the information

that being said even my favourite authers sometimes disappoint me, even within my favourite books, so once again, it depends on what else they have to offer
