I can't say I've read all his content but Little Brother and Homeland are good examples of how technology can help aid in fascism. Sure it's a little over the top but it made me more aware of how corporations can be used to overstep our rights and privacy. You're free to hate on him all you want but the truth is he's actually doing something to push back and make us all aware instead of just saying to just be okay with it.
One only needs to read the twitter files if they want to see how true fascism is occurring today. We don't need an obnoxious book.
What has he done besides write a poor imitation of 1984?
I think you mean the X files
Your responses make a lot of sense now.
