Hardly unravelling, more like being reformed to carry out the current administrations agenda. Anyone not on board is being pushed out. This take that it’s “coming apart at the seams” is pure copium. The only thing coming apart at the seams is the old world order.

I got back into scifi books recently as an adult and was disgusted to find that virtually all of the “great” scifi authors are menwritingwomen trope goldmines.

When there are female main characters that aren’t just the authors fetishs, they’re typically subjected to violence, with rape used so frequently as female “character development” that it would be laughable if it wasn’t so sad.

I’ve begun to prefer scifi written by women, because then at least I know its not going to be completely cringe.
