A book I'd recommend to everyone, but I didn't necessarily like it. Like, the ideas presented are thought provoking. I mean, there's literally two chapters of an anti-totalitarianism manifesto, which isn't thrilling reading.
All in all, it's depressing that such a bleak prediction of the future rings true today. I mean, obvs, it's not spot on, and I disagree with bits. But like...it sure feels familiar.
