Yesterday I had one person say I'm too so pro-tech pro-capitalist and one person say I was trying to force a leftist ideology, and both were responding to A City on Mars. All I can say is I wish people would stop trying to find the hidden motive and just read the words as plainly written!

Why does everyone need to tie a little conspiracy bow on everything? Even if it's not strictly conspiracy theorizing, there's this deep thread now of "okay but the REAL trick is..." when the thing is that the topic is involved and complex and doesn't naturally map to a simplified ideology.
