So wait. A POS person isn’t just a POS?  Elon is the way he is because the read bad science fiction?

Yeah, hard disagree. 

Ender’s Game is at the top of many self-professed lover of science-fiction’s list. It, and its author, are horrible bigoted and so much of it would be problematic now. It especially dives deep into that advocacy for toxicity you are talking about. 

People aren’t racist or homophobic because their favorite series is the Ender’s one.

What's wrong with being exposed to toxic idealogies?  That's like saying we better burn the book because we don't like what it says.  

I dunno.  Through the lens of the book, the absurdity of some of these toxic things become gratuitously apparent.

Even beloved science fiction authors of years past would have some views that would be considered antiquated or even bigoted in 2023.

Again, mainly most kids aren't/weren't ever learning "science" from science fiction. 

 @74178bce I switched to Fastmail and now it’s basically one of my most important services now. The 1Password integration for masked emails is the killer feature 

 @aea3822c I don’t really know comics at all, but I have incredible respect for this person. 

He is standing up to the corporate greed in the only way he can. By giving up his baby and his livelihood from the last 20 years. Plus, he’s showing just how broken copyright law is. 

Does anyone know where I can support this guy and buy his books?  Especially in a way to give him as much as the profit as possible?  

I just became a Fables fan.
