Dinner has blossomed.

i do not like the changes they've made from the book (it's one of my all time favorites) especially straight up telling you her name. i liked figuring it out on a reread. the regime's worse in the book, they've neutered the white supremacy angle which whitewashes (heh) the fact that the "moral majority" irl got into politics not because of abortion etc but because the federal government forced them to integrate their universities or lose federal funding.

I really love the individual black characters in the show thus far...but yes. Removing the white supremacy angle makes it feel less authentic to the US's actual heavily-armed authoritarian rear end in a top hat problem.
