I’m about a quarter of the way through The Dispossessed, and I’m pretty disappointed so far. It seems like a flat character expounding on the virtues of Anarcho-syndicalism, but I just have a hard time believing it.

It honestly reminds me of Atlas Shrugged. It’s this ideal world where an idealist system works, and it’s hard to make it believable.

Maybe I’m just a hater. I guess I shouldn’t have an opinion until I finish it.

    If they really learned, would they be capitalist? (somewhat undialectical)

      That’s what I’m thinking! In the book, the capitalist society has limited the use of cars because of pollution, and I just don’t see that being possible under capitalism.
