No one really cared. I remember being in University at the time and I spoke about it with friends. The university professors briefly sympathised with his views, but they soon forgot, since the sexual misconduct claims resurfaced against Bloom when he died. But nearly no one here really read about Bloom beyond the usual memes.

This, there were a few threads about it then the conversation died off.

You seriously shouldn't solicit criticisms from someone so slovenly

The first thread I remember was something to the like "The Canon is closed. There will be no more entries in it now" or something like that with the frog jew sitting in a chair looking candid and half dead.

We were upset that the mods didn’t make a damned sticky again.
They made for a dumb ODed amateur guitarist, but not Harold fucking Bloom.
