Mother BonesThree reminders:
"Handmaid's Tale" has already been here the whole time, it was pointed at racialized women.

punIssuerHow to write a dystopian novel:
Write about what already happens to marginalized folks, but let it happen to white people
Write about what already happens to marginalized folks, but let it happen to white people
Audun@punissuer does this work the other way around? Write an utopian novel by having what already happens to white rich cishet males happen to everyone?
@audunmb I'm not sure it works that way, as many things rich people do are not scalable to the masses; eg., if everyone owned a private jet, we probably had traffic jams at every airport
@punissuer probably true. Though, if I were a novelist it would have been worth a try, just to see how it would look.
