I see this getting recommended, but the description on wikipedia looks like some commie, hurr ebil oppressor shit.Maybe it's good besides that, but will I find it insufferable?
>>24990179It's not commie per se, it's "authoritarianism bad," rebel extremists are frowned upon from book oneThen the sequels show a democratic republic getting easily subverted and eating itself, and the attitude is more "you can't make the world you want, only the world you deserve"It's not a deeply philosophical series but the characters have enough convictions to morally ground the duels and space battles
Anything like pic rel?
>>24990179it's about as anti-commie as it gets. it takes an extremely libertarian view of things, and goes on at length about the evils of authority, any system that depresses natural meritocracy, democracy in specific and in general, and even rebellion itselfthe oppressors are evil, but their real crime is that they're evil for backward, irrational reasons that are detrimental to themselves as the lower castes
>>24990179he breaks POV rules and it pisses me off. shit tier writer who found the normie market.
>>24982576Is there a sex scene with the cute femboy in the middle and the cute tomboy on the right?
Is dune good? Is dune unique? Is there something similar?
>>24990179It feels like more a critique of democracy at times in the series>>24990344What are the POV rules?
>Hey guize!>Guize!>Hey I have this super original idea about a fantasy world.>But get this - it has magic AND a Victorian sociopolitical system with honour dueal and nobility!Please make them stop.

Finished Dune 4. Entertaining books and there is some interesting themeing and thought provoking ideas but 70% of the philosophy in this book is just garbage pseudo philosophy, there are entire chapters of Leto discussing how females are better warriors and how it is related to rape and homosexuality. Frank Herbert is more of a shrooms junkey and a sex pervert than a philosopher. Anyways, my favorite 2 characters are Moneo and Hwi. Money acts all subservient with Leto, all weak and dumb "I dont understand Lord" then he is alone with Duncan and the dynamic totally shifts, he is the smart strong one in that relationship, kinda dickish though, Leto did it out of love when Moneo seems to do it out of spite. Leto does love Moneo the most, last chapters Leto really did try to warm him "Moneo you really need to start thinking for yourself and being independent" Poor dude was just an old model not designed for the new times.Hwi seems like a subversion of the whore of babylon, so empathic and pure, she will comfort and fuck anything that she looks at. Are we sure she is not a chinese room just designed to say whatever the person in front needs to hear the most?
>>24990452I remember a cool rebellion plotline that goes nowhere
>>24990465Leto calls the rebellion dumb and pointless chapter 2. But yeah, Frank doesnt do action, I think he had a concept and idea with the first half of dune but the shroom side of it overtook the plot.
For better or worse I've read a lot of Silverberg, yet I've also barely scratched the surface.
