I've been curious about the book because i saw some people talking about it, another urge after the netflix show, so went to check a little the book.
I haven't read much about chinese revolution, so i became intrigued, the cultural revolution was really like that or it was exaggerated?
i sometimes watch a guy that lives on china, he says the current standing of the people today is that thr cr was a mistake because it destroyed many historical artifacts.
well, the post became more about the cultural revolution than the scifi piece itself.
The GPCR is, of course, exaggerated in the netflix show. Here's a twitter thread about it, and check out this screenshot for a more direct critique and comparison to the Chinese version.
You can also read the CPC's own critique of the GPCR in this thread. (original source)
