it's fair, wouldn't you say that the breadth of the campaigns in number of deaths and artillery/air support kinda make normandy different enough?

wait, it's like not a generational issue, and isn't using generation as a shorthand for specific demographics still useful in everyday language? how else would you refer to such a group of individuals, i'm drawing blanks.

lame, day-by-day im more satisfied with not reading harry potter (mostly cuz the magic didn't make sense to me and i kept mixing up the names of the characters...)

yeah, think my response was responding to something non-existent (like i made up a take to argue against), appreciate your comment. one needs to take the complaints and grievances seriously if they wanna understand or have a meaningful affect.

Yeah reading what happened (outside of the book) the same vibes are there. It really made me think the endorsement on the cover from obama was genuine lol

I don't think they are federated? Neither is the other big community whatever it's called.

Yeah, maybe not talking about more of what happened during the Cultural Revolution? I thought he did a good job, portraying the awfulness without getting off-topic. Or the reader may have been expecting something less banal? I've read propaganda works with a strong bend against a country's before, like Heart of Darkness, or in a more light-hearted manner, Catch-22. I'd be curious what the OP felt was too pro-china, as it was something that went completely by my radar.

I thought Liu Cixin portrayed the US quite favourably in the second book, I was pleasantly surprised. Really took a 'equal but different' approach to other cultures I feel.

Trisolarians suck though, except for that one cool one.
