People tend to have their favoured lenses and frameworks, but what lies outside them? What happens to academia, media criticism, and so on, if we hypothetically rule out mentioning capitalism, or race, or gender, or any of the other go-tos? What's discussed instead?
Wondered this after reading a bunch of people groaning about students in their classes and on their courses seemingly having little to say about things beyond focusing on representation in casting or something being a "critique" based on one of the above staples.
What, ideally, would they mention in lieu of them? Technique? Personal feelings and experience? How much room's there to manoeuvre when you try to stray from this stuff?
