death of the author

A pretentious, postmodern jerk-off idea, popular among some academics, that says that the creator of an artistic work is irrelevant to the work, that their thought processes and intentions in creating the work don't matter, that they are not an authority on the very thing that they created, and that YOU, the passive consumer of the work, are more qualified to know what the work is about than they are, who put tons of hard work and effort into creating it.
Who does this "Ray Bradbury" person think he is, saying that Fahrenheit 451 is about how nobody reads books anymore? *I* say it's about censorship, dammit! What does HE know, he only wrote the damn thing! Death of the author says that creators are just passive, empty vessels through which the Divine Muse speaks!

Coup Of The Author

When an audience either applies 'Death of the Author' or goes against the personal desires of said author. Often while this person, group or company is still alive.
This can include 'new cannon' being ignored, 'fan cannon', copying a game they want to remove, or adding mods more entertaining than dlcs, etc.
"Hey where can I get that horror game P.T?"
"Oh, they pulled that off the shelves for some reason. Pretty stupid if you ask me, its a great game"
"Really?"
"Yeah, luckily a bunch of people just copied the data and now spread it for free, real Coup of The Author."

Death of the author

A term describing the idea of how a viewer should have the freedom to interpretate any piece of artistic work, for better or worse:

For example: Movies, webcomics, videogames, songs, paintings, and any other diverse piece of fiction.

Contrary to popular belief, this idea is neither a positive nor negative idea, but still, it can be use for the creative expresion and the opportunity to make new and personal creations.

For example: Giving a story to a background character, making a comedic parody of a gritty-horror story, Making an imaginative non-official sequel or prequel...

And as said before, this works of fanfiction can be used for both great good and evil: Anybody can make a beutifull piece of art to detone their intrepretation of any work, or by the bad side, they can make porn of it. (Yes, porn is bad.)
Dude: I recently watched this very cool and scary movie, but sadly, my favorite protagonist died at the end, so i will just ret-con that by making the killer dumb and my protagonist more cooler.
Guy: Wtf?! You can't do that you baby pussy boy! You can't just aply the Death of the author in that situation! BE SAD! QUIT HAVING FUN! STOP THINKING AND JUST ACCEPT HOW MISERABLE EVERYTHING IS!
Dude: Fuck you you can't tell me what to do! *Kills the guy epic style.*

Authority

That's what it's all about. Keeping me from having it in my own life by any means necessary. Upto and including orchestrating some grand conspiracy while an infection eats away at my brain and stealing all of my ideas to fund it.
Hym "Hey. I'm not the one who wants authority. You want me to respect the authority of your imaginary friend and you are killing me to shut me up. So, if an authority doesn't use it to make the pieces of shit stealing my ideas pay me enough to retire, I'm just going to kill a child. I'm not going to live as a cripple. I'm not working. You should have spent less time trying to get the rape porn off the internet and more time dealing with the targeted harassment. You sick fucks need to stop trying to use it on people or you need to keep getting your kids murdered."

Lose all moral authority

That's clearly what you're trying to do prevent yourself from doing but you didn't have any moral authority in the first place. You're an incest cultists. The basis of your moral authority is an incest cult.
Hym "And THAT is the reason for THIS. I know I keep saying this but it's clearly multi faceted. If your religion is an incest cult, you lose all moral authority... Therefore, it has to be more than an incest cult. Silence the guy who said it. Steal all of his property so you can justify not platforming me."
