You should probably read the banned book list to find books that were somewhat on point. Just mentioning the first that came to mind. Handmaid's tale. 1984.
Small consolation, but anyone that thinks the idea in their dystopian fiction is too stupid to work might find comfort that their idea actually isn't stupid enough.
Exactly this. I have so much material to work with now, which should thrill me as a writer, but the constant dread of it all sorta puts a damper on things... *sigh*
Remember when we watched Idiocracy and said, wow it would suck if everything turned out like that? Now we watch it and hope that eventually they will listen to the smart people again like in the movie
So true, um sorry to be the bearer of bad news, if any of those dystopian novels included prurient scenes, a bill was just introduced to Oklahoma to make the writer a sex offender…. It’s a test case for a national bill that according to Project 2025 would include librarians and consumers.
