more specifically, gay space luxury socialism that comes about because of hyper-advanced AIs. a running theme in the books is that these hyper-advanced, supposedly benevolent AIs are maybe not all that great and might be fairly sociopathic but all of the nerds who wank over them forget that part (or more likely, don't actually read the books)

they're real good books though

Instead of that, I got to read Anthem and I instead learned communism is when committees decide if you can have lightbulbs or not. The more power gets concentrated into non-ubermenschen, the more communistical a society is.

I thought that was about 1000 year old monks altering reality with their mind to fight colonizers from another dimension.

Elon would have gotten mad at the depiction of Veppers, so my theory is that he never read Surface Detail or likely any culture novel past Player of Games.

phlebas is pretty mid and shouldn't be listed as the "first" culture novel imo because it benefits from having read some of the others, I loved Player of Games and Use of Weapons though
