#genuinely this reading incomprehension is mystifying to me

rosewind2007:

I am very excited indeed to see Martha Wells talking about the next Murderbot Diaries novella being released sooner than I was expecting! Yay!!!

But the most terrifying thing, to me, is the bit she says about Murderbot and agency, constructs and consciousness and the issue of slavery in the MBDiaries series.

I know the “is MB a boy or a girl?” question is still outrageously “Which books did you read???” but the idea someone reads the book and doesn’t see the constructs as slaves?

That’s just, just…HOW?
