@maggielygan @Potatopolitics@MyslecGlebiej To me it feels like the author shoehorned some other ideas that he had into a trilogy. The way 3 completely disregards the ending of 2 just for the drama felt wayy too forced. Plus, the further you go, the more the human element gets forgotten, which was so awesome in 1
@Tweet_Desolace@Potatopolitics@MyslecGlebiej I'd count it as a win – book 2 isn't bad per se, and the ending is kind of interesting, but 3 is the only book I'd wish to unread. A lot of great ideas ruined by edgy "what if everything went wrong" plot. And genocides. Lots and lots of those.
NEW VIDEO: Let’s dive right into the debate on the origins of money, the reality of pre-money exchange, the actual uses of barter through history, and how all of this has affected our imagination of the present and the future.
