  • Read the book please… The trillogy* is on Audible. Some truly terrifying stuff. Like, >!living in a dying universe that was once an infinite garden because of the dark forest attacks that flattened spacetime into fewer dimensions, which could happen again.!<

    *the last book (or some 4th book, I forgot) isn’t written by Chixen Liu, but they liked it so much they wrote off on publishing it in the series as a means to wrap up some critical questions.

    That mentality is surely broader than fascism itself. You see it in any hypernationalist state. Rome had “the barbarians.” The British Empire had “the savages.” Nazi Germany had “the jews.” There is always an “other” when the state needs it. Unless you’re painting a broader form of fascism, perhaps.
