- charlescearl 2y agoPeople always cite Parable of the Sower as proof of an inevitable dystopian collapse. They fail to then point out that Octavia Butler’s protagonists constructed Earthseed, a commune that stood in opposition to MAGA.
- bloopernova 2y agoIdeally we'd get the Earthseed commune without the huge suffering that came before it! I don't think the collapse is inevitable. I lean towards doomerism but I know I can't predict what's going to happen next week, let alone next decade.
