    Stranger in a Strange land sucks unbelievable amounts of ass (not in like a cool way), this video on it is a classic. The one-two punch of that book & Childhood's End by Arthur C Clarke made me realize that any sci-fi written by a man before like 1999 is unreadable dogshit.

      Asimov erasure. He was a liberal, but far from the worst. “Foundation” is basically babies first DiaMat.

        idk I also re-read some foundation novels and they were really childish. The fact that UKLG was publishing contemporarily just puts them all to shame.

        You don't think there's wrong with benevolent hyperintelligent aliens visiting earth and going totally hands off except for stopping violence against white farmers in South Africa?
