Oh, I know. It's really ironic. He's taking a dig at the whole Pitchforkian academic musical criticism and how it takes itself so importantly. Which to me is hilarious, because I think Born This Way is so insolently and unapologetically over the top it
screams "don't take me seriously!" Though the humor was lost with the whole healing everybody of their insecurities shtick. But anyways, I can't really tell if he's attacking Born This Way for being pretentious or just being ironic.
