    I remember liking Speaker a lot but I haven’t looked at it in twenty years. Can’t remember if that’s the one where the main characters become incredibly important internet shitposters traveling through the galaxy at near light speed.

      That was Ender's Game and it was Ender's siblings. They were convinced a human world war would start if the bug war ended, so they put together a plan to trick the world into being nicer by...having online debates through pseudonyms. The sister would write very paranoid stuff about Russia to seem manic in comparison to the brother, who'd write more pragmatic stuff and deconstruct everything she talked about.

      Somehow it worked?
