Dood! It was ONE BOOK I didn't like! I mean, okay, I really, really didn't like it and don't intend to read anything he writes every again but I had no intention whatsoever of bring up my personal feelings about Little Brother! ;)
And I'm only sorta a socialist. For progressive post-democratic movement to work, I feel that it must find a way to outreach to the middle class in constructive, non-violent ways. Which definitely means deconstructing media that enhance middle class privilege, yes, but once a person understand that, hey, fantasy is fantasy. I don't judge what other people like (except when I'm feeling cranky, but then I feel bad about it afterward) just what I don't like. So, go ahead, knock yourself out. I don't see the appeal, but I don't have to! :)
