His dystopia is that the Internet is so chaotic and lie-ridden that people in the Red Zone have lost any sense of what the truth is. But somehow -- through diligent policing of discourse, I guess -- people in the Blue Zone have avoided that.
But really, you can turn this dystopia inside out to produce another one -- a world in which speech is so regulated and controlled that everybody thinks alike and nobody dissents. You could call that dystopia 1984, or Brave New World.
Maybe his problem isn't that he paints the anarchic Red Zone in such dark colors but that he makes the controlled Blue Zone look so pleasant and benign. A failure of the imagination, I guess.
Trump haters might like his new book, but getting low review scores from former die hard fans.
