[QUOTE="Bedrockgames, post: 9158870, member: 85555"] Fair enough. I think the analogy is apt to your point, the sentiment on the webpage and to your point about discomfort. On the other hand, I am invoking a very potent historical example to make my point (I have always been fascinated by Communist China, The Khmer Rouge and Soviet Russia-----so the cultural revolution just has struck me as relevant to some current trends the way some find the rise of the Third Reich relevant to some current trends: it is about how it rhymes, not that it is identical). But it is charged. It is hyperbolic. I do think the intro is doing more than what you say above, but I don't think this of us who disagree about that will resolve our disagreement in this thread. And I don't want to bog down the thread as I have already made my points and we are just hashing over them in detail now. And my issues aren't with this book in particular, I am just have a lot of misgivings and unease about the direction things have been going in the hobby and in the culture when it comes to things like entertainment and the arts. So I am finding it harder and harder not to say my feelings clearly when these topics crop up (because I genuinely feel we are going in a bad and dangerous direction, however well intentioned). But probably not worth wading in every time it does emerge in a thread [/QUOTE]
