I’d like something more extended and literally episodic the way the word looks?

    The bobiverse series (about a guy who is hit by a car right after signing up for a cryogenics thing and then wakes in the future to find out he’s basically been legislated to have no rights and is stuck into a self-replicating drone for space exploration, it’s pretty good) kind of starts off setting the backstory like it. The christofascism just started a bit later.

    Obviously it’s not one to one but given Trump’s performative Christianity it was all I could think about around the failed coup on Jan 6.

      on the non-political side, i recommend Mickey 17. the synopsys of bobiverse sounds like it has similar theming except this story focuses more on the character and less on the world (though the world is still there).
