Doesn't need to be explicitly political can just be vibes. I'm just getting very tired of every main character being either a gruff rugged individualist or a bazinga nerdy individualist. Thanks

Like the last 20ish years I'd say

Some of the recent ones I've read and enjoyed were the Rosewater series, Annihilation, Blindsight, 3 Body Problem

2312 is also by Kim Stanley Robinson but with post-capitalism firmly established (at least in space; I forget what was going on on Earth). If you like worldbuilding you might like it. The main character is kind of individualist though...

These are 2 movies on Netflix btw, for anyone interested. Over the top Chinese Action flix, but a fun watch.

They're about 2 major events that happen within the Wandering Earth universe, I guess? A close call with Jupiter and a prequel in the building of the engine system.
Edit: I haven't read the book, so....🤷♂️

Execution? Not really? I don't think so? In both movies, there's mass death events, but not an execution... In the prequel they have the mass self-sacrifice to get the moon propelled away? The second movie starts with the elevator blowing up and ends with the moon being propelled away/ Earth starting up.

Ah, no, i don't remember either of the movies covering that. The prequel happens at a point where everything is accepted and there's factions arguing over how humanity should be preserved. But really the movies are about the fight against nature rather than factions.

Awesome, enjoy! Say Fuck You to jupiter for me.
The Mars Trilogy is great, I just finished it. Some weird bashing of the Soviet Union, but otherwise there's a pretty decent political backdrop to the story.
Have you read the sequels to Annihilation yet? If you haven’t, you should, they’re very good
Did you read echopraxia?
