If you have not read either of these books, then you really should.

Regardless of whether you like Non fic or not, if you are using this here big old interwebs, then honestly read them both. Start with Doppelganger and then read Code Dependant.

Is technology gonna destroy democracy? What about the whole of humanity?

These books made me worry, but both also gave hope for the future and the power of humanity and most of all communities.

@Mollysdailykiss @bookstodon Thanks for the suggestion.

I'm not a reader but have wanted to start reading a bit more and these are right up my alley. Might have to dust the kindle off and read on my commutes to/from work.

@Mollysdailykiss @bookstodon I can't remember if I have read Doppelganger, but Klein is always a good read.

Been meaning to read Doppelganger. Never heard of Code Dependant however. Thanks for the reco.

@Pappy @bookstodon both are excellent. They are both nominated for the #womensprizefornonfiction this year

@Pappy @bookstodon Doppelganger is great. I think there’s even a weird glimmer of hope if we take the idea at face value, that MAGA is essentially worried about the same things as Occupy Wallstreet was, just that their solutions are completely backwards and destructive.
