Summarized, I guess my complaint about Freddie deBoer is

\n\n

\u201cHe values substance in writing, and believes that too much writing today substitutes style in its place, and that\u2019s true and important. But while he *says* he values style, and thinks it has a place, you sure wouldn\u2019t guess it from reading him.\u201d

\n\n

(You could say he substitutes substance ABOUT style in its place.)

\n

\u201cfreddie deboer substitutes substance about style for substance\u201d is probably the best concise description of that guy i\u2019ve seen

\n
\n

that is the exact opposite of what I said

\n
\n\n

were you saying that he substitutes substance for substance about style?

\n\n

that he put substance about style in the slot where style should’ve gone.

his writing voice’s changed since then, a lot these past few months, that’s not a criticism I’d make today.
