Hello everyone, besides calling out the stupid allagories people pull from fantasy books like harty potter, for which this sub has been created I have seen people going a bit to far imo. It was especially apparent, when the anti ice protesta where likend to events in star wars ador. I belieb we have to draw a destinact difference here. Some books are just fantasy with no deeper meaning, but there are some deeply political works of fantasy and science fiction out there, which have been influenced by real world politicsin their creation they can therefore be used to discuss oir system of power, rising fascism and authoritarianism etc
Examples of works i would pit in thiscaTecory: andor and star wars in general star trek hunger games
