1·4 years agoA lot of high fantasy ends up being a slippery slope towards fascism. I'm not saying that Tolkien is a fascist (I don't even know), but popular fantasy does tend to draw fascists since romanticization of the past is a symptom of fascism. C.S. Lewis was also an open Christian apologist.
And as for sci-fi, a lot of that gets lost on people. We can only talk about capitalism in public through cyberpunk. We can talk about anti-racism and embracing of sexualities through Star Trek and some Bioware games when they were good. Star Wars was influenced by the Vietnam War.

I'm actually in this picture. I'm the white person with the mask on!
Got any tips for applying to city/county as a junior with an unrelated major? I look at the job listings and I see ton of Java and old tech stacks and frameworks that private doesn't use. I can't even get experience to get there if no one uses that stuff.
Go to one of the coastal places and you should be ok. Honestly, as an American we need people who aren't reactionary turds so I welcome you. But for your material security it definitely is a risk. Canada is not a bad place TBH. Anything can happen--good or bad-- in the future and just keep an eye on current US politics.
Yeah, but since everything is political, there is really no "outside of politics" because I guarantee you that 99% of hot couch gamer dude criticisms come from some latent protestant work ethic.
Yeah but it's not something I worry too much about. Guarantee you there is something you can offer from your unique experiences. There are always hot couch people like me who just like memes and video games, and there are of course people who will quote Walter Benjamin down to the very last page.

You know how Mayo Pete had a cool dad who's a Gramsci scholar? Macron had a cool professor in Paul Ricouer and ended up being a ghoul. Those are like the saddest super villain stories.
