What the fuck level of cult of personality even is this? They're writing fan fic about their fucking overlords. What the fuck I cannot emphasize enough what the fuck?

Or even more sinister, they do the opposite and venerate fiction like Dune, LotR and GoT as if it was real history, then use those 'histories' to base their opinions on.
Yep, you think their idea of a chosen one leader or shifting loyalties between camps are from the Bible or history, but their mental model is actually the plotline from some show or movie they watched while eating.
I personally became as liberal as they come after reading The Giver. I used this in conjunction with Narnia to synthesize Markism-Lenonism-Yoko Onoism.
The giver is such sinister evil shit. "Here's a book about why sharing is bad for children!"
I haven't read that book in decades but I didn't get that message from it. The message I thought I got was why suppressing messy feelings for the sake of conformity and "stability" was bad. What did I miss?
Oh the book is super anti-communist. The whole thing is basically "gommunism is going to tell everyone what to do, destroy the family unit, make fun illegal, and will practice eugenics."
9-year old me thought all that sounded pretty good if we just didn't do the eugenics part. I don't think that's what my 4th. grade teacher was hoping I'd get out of it lmao
