    They literally did not say they hated it or really criticized it in any way. People are just getting mad because they made jokes about it.

      From a certain perspective it's just high level shit-posting. A throw away aside about how the gist of a book's thesis doesn't appear to be a great primer to action for the american left but that the book itself is a good heuristic, among many others, for identifying tiresome pedantic online lefties. It drew out the people it was (half-heartedly, ironically) criticizing and they went for the bait like reply guys to shit posters.
