  • I live in America, so my apologies if I seem a little biased.

    I got the feeling that a large portion of the world is interested and paying attention to what appears to be the downfall and collapse of the largest “super power” on the planet. I imagine many people outside the country would be interested in attempts to combat/slow/reverse what for all intents and purposes is the biggest economic and military nation in the world going full fascist, even if it’s just symbolic.






  • Probably not the worst I ever read, but whenever a question such as this comes up my mind immediately goes to one of the Tarot books by Piers Anthony. I don’t remember which one, it was just in a pile of books people left in a dorm one time and I had nothing to read. I finished it, but I can’t tell you anything about it other than the vague recollection that I hated it.










  • I don’t think you’re really making any Americans feel bad, we’re pretty good at doing that all by ourselves. Also I’m sure plenty of people would like to leave, they just can’t for a variety of reasons. Money and very strict immigration rules (of other countries) being the top two but they’ve already been mentioned. It’s also very difficult to leave your family and move somewhere where you know virtually no one for a lot of people, even if they meet the previous requirements.



  • If we’re talking about Paul, he’s the result of over ten millennia of a secret breeding program by the bene gesserit (albeit a generation earlier than planned) AND royalty.

    I love Dune more than anything outside of Hitchhiker’s Guide, but I don’t think Paul really fits here. He’s double special before the spice.
