I remember when that came out and it was like 70% translators’ notes explaining basic Marxism-Leninism. She really should have just published a second book with that exposition.
I haven’t personally read it but as I understand it she has a second volume planned. Possibly she’ll go into greater depth with that one. I wonder if she’d do an AMA on hexbear. That’d be pretty cool
