![]() ![]() ![]() Still, it should subjectively have been avoided because genre audiences don´t like that Or I just don´t get that it´s a satire of psychology and psychiatry as a hidden bonus storyline. ![]() However, there is the one or other good toilet humor pun, but besides that, I don´t get how these stereotypical parent and partner problem drivel does anything substantial for the plot and its message of promoting leftist socialist propaganda, socializing the suffering, and stuff. See, the main protagonist has some serious issues and searches for help in episodes I, highly subjectively, would have preferred to instead see as more exploration, meeting the aliens, or something else not that separated from the main plot. Is it deep or just playing with childhood trauma, relationship issues, and making fun of psychiatry. Sarcasm drips from each black humoured page and one could imagine that this is a possible future in corporate owned space habitats, planets, and solar systems. The whole system, the immense suffering on earth with the option of risking one´s life to get some grains of the immense wealth accumulated with patents found on suicide trips, exploiting anyone for the profit of some, was, is, and will be the key element of capitalistic systems Pohl wasn´t quite fond of. No free meals in neoliberal, turbo capitalistic alien artifact filled alien spaceports ![]() Kind of the same as Pohls´ cooperation with Kornbluth, The Space Merchants, with an extra layer of psychiatric mind penetration ![]()
