Moin.
Meine Frühstückslektüre ist Cory Doctorows "Lost Cause".
#ClimateFiction, also ein #NearFuture Szenario in der fortschreitenden #Klimakrise.

Er beschreibt Szenarien, wie Reaktionäre "grüne" Projekte blockieren - wie ich es gerade in unserer Hausgemeinschaft erlebe.
#CliFi ist so aktuell

First post here :)
A recent studies I did. A moveable fishing spot.
In 2069, when smoke and giant machineries dominate cyberpunk world, this kind of prototype would become a reality.

This was a bit explanation where i start my idea:)
How about this stand-alone fishing spot can become a nomadic?

Partyleaders have discouraged Repubsfrom hosting town hall eventsin the nearfuture,saying that if they must host such an event,they should reduce the likelihood of videos beingposted on socmedia by using tele-town hallformats,which allow lawmakers to pre-select quest,ensuringthere are no follow-ups.

I haven't read anything of Dugin, yet. But this basically describes the first chapter of my debut novel that I wrote in 2021. Wish it wouldn't be used as some kind of manual, since my story begins where the consequences start. 👀

Gee.., someone should have written a dystopian novel about this in 2021. Where the integration of these kinds of online influences was also described as one of the main reasons why it went wrong...

In nearfuture India, 3 Tamilwomen, govern a feminist regime and run a gene remodeling program for children to eradicate misogyny. Their authority is challenged when a male child defies the remodeling process, and grows into the leader of an ancient demon race created to uphold patriarchy.
