- tomohawk 3y agoYou used to see sci-fi paperbacks in the hands of people of all walks of life. Lit majors used to look down on it because it was not high falutin enough. Sci-fi used to speak to things most people cared about. Then it went fringe. I and several people I know went from consuming all things sci-fi to alarm at how fringe it was getting, to just ignoring it.
