Yes the misunderstand lord of the rings and Star Trek and Star Wars and I’m sure they’d misunderstand Enders game if the read it…I guess it’s their lack of social skills, critical thinking skills and maturity

It freaks me out that they do always seem to pick the "anti-tech" authors to claim as inspiration. Asimov and Clarke were much more neutral, in that regard...and yet they're never the ones cited by weirdos who want to usher in a cyber-dystopia.

Ahh. Whether it be by nature or by nurture, the difference in connecting with humanity results in interpretations and perspectives tainted with extreme self centeredness. The lack of visceral human connection causes a huge problem when humans are primarily social beings.

They suggested one shouldn't build the Torment Nexus in that great old sci-fi book "Don't Create the Torment Neuxs" I expect they are building it.

An interesting connection between these revered sci-fi writers & the tech bros is a baseline of sexism. When half the population is belittled as a constant subtext within their writing, it is little wonder that sexism is so prevalent in the tech business & online spaces. medium.com/@temptress/u...

I maybe need to give Philip K. Dick another shot? Thought the two books I read of his were good, with great stories, but I didn't much relate to the interactions between people. They never felt quite right 😬 Maybe a minority here
