Wanna know exactly what NIL tax fraud looks like? We've got months of emails exposing how UCLA steered donors to a willing charity while earmarking the funds for football.

The piece though is more saliently about hatred vs. enjoyment / “bec[oming] a hater instead of a lover” and that is a false economy, one that has long been used to stifle criticism. It is not “mean” to dislike something. That’s engagement and that’s how culture and taste are made

Kyle McAuley @kylemcauley.bsky.social · 20/05/2025

Really though as a Jew I find the idea of just liking something/not hating completely alienating. And as an educator I think the retreat from criticism is bad for civil society. Culture needs haters

JC and FJ are great cites bc they connect SF to politics on a level deeper than theme. Still can't see the political significance of the hoverboard, and if anything plummeting T**la sales argue that people really do want the present to be less disappointing

Kyle McAuley @kylemcauley.bsky.social · 15/05/2025

A fictional genre, a type of car, and a piece of consumer junk are very clearly not the same kinds of things. They of course could interact in a politically specific way but I am genuinely unsure how you think they do

120

Kyle McAuley @kylemcauley.bsky.social · 15/05/2025

What I’m asking for is for you to break down your original point. Sci-fi, EVs, and hoverboards are all different categories of things. They’re all part of the same cultural field but in a way that’s so diffuse that I genuinely don’t get the political point you want to make

110

Kyle McAuley @kylemcauley.bsky.social · 15/05/2025

No but they have different kinds of cultural significance than the other things you’re talking about

110

Kyle McAuley @kylemcauley.bsky.social · 15/05/2025

Yeah sci-fi can be annoyingly statist (notable exceptions exist) but the hoverboard is not “research” it was just a fad

Kyle McAuley @kylemcauley.bsky.social · 15/05/2025

lol ofc they don’t, that’s marketing. Unsure what that has to do with a “shrinking concept of political futurity”

Grew tomatoes from seed this year and they’re so big now that the very tall plants are blocking the the medium tall plants from the grow lights and as the tallest person in my family I respect this shithead behavior

I mean he probably will sit in a chair by the fire and after much thought have a stunning realization about those closest to him so who’s to say?

Oh I think it’s because we came up during orthodox historicism’s final death grip on literary studies

Kyle McAuley @kylemcauley.bsky.social · 05/05/2025

The Realistic Imagination is as bracing today as it was in 1981 imo. A pleasure to read about realism as a flexible, imperfect mode rather than as the orthodox historicist hallucination we were told it was

140

Kyle McAuley @kylemcauley.bsky.social · 05/05/2025

It is! We have inherited a very doctrinaire idea of realism that needs significant reexamination. Frankenstein and Middlemarch are both realist novels even if they differ significantly at the level of story. George Levine thought this too fwiw

Kyle McAuley @kylemcauley.bsky.social · 05/05/2025

Does that make it sci-fi? I think it just makes it realism
