#pohl — Public Fediverse posts

More along the lines of attacks with Polonium and nerve agents, electronic infiltration, arson, funding troublemakers, breaking data cables. Hybrid war.
( In #SciFi Fred #Pohl wrote a story called The Cool War, and there's an element in common.)

Is there a climate and fossil element to Russia? Yes, but this goes back to the Great Game by way of armed robbery, vandalism and a zero sum approach.

It's surprising, that those "you are here..." type of Venn's diagram which include 1984, Brave New World, Lord of flies, etc. seldom include this classic:

Actually, our current Elonesque epoch may actually contain quite a bit of 1952 Frederic #Pohl, rather than Orwell or Huxley. Of course, you have to substitute Mars for Venus, as radar sounding of Venus came just few years later, but these are details.

tonight!

Hörtipp: Sozialpsychologe #Pohl „Wir brauchen nicht weniger #gender sondern mehr“

Die kulturelle Konstruktion von #Männlichkeit hat negative Folgen für die Gesellschaft, sagt Sozialpsychologe Rolf Pohl.

Der Sozialpsychologe erforscht, wieso gerade Männer häufig gewalttätig werden. Als einen der Gründe nennt er ein starres Männlichkeitsbild, das viele dazu bringe, ihre Bedürfnisse zu unterdrücken. Das entlade sich dann oft in Gewalt.

My favorite sci-fi passage on this (from Frederick Pohl's The Space Merchants) -- where in the future, people eat pieces of a giant piece of cultivated meat called "Chicken Little". Washed down with something called "Coffiest". #ChickenLittle #SciFi #Pohl #CultivatedMeat

This #SciFiSaturday, I have found a combination of entertainment and education that is dear to my heart: #ClimateCrisis and #SciFi.

@Loukas has two classics of a genre with the following theme:

"So much #ScienceFiction has dealt with #EcologicalBreakdown, since the 1950s and earlier. I think reading it has given me a much better mental toolbox to react to current #ClimateChange events.

#Pohl and #Kornbluth
"The Space Merchants" (1952). Consumerism has stripped the planet bare..."

Awesome series of books! Humans got out into the asteroid belt and discovered that one asteroid holds an abandoned station with lots of ships of various sized. No instructions of course and if you try to take them apart they blow up. So volunteers have been trying various combinations of settings and travelling out and sometimes back. Sometimes they find things, sometimes not so it's exploration by randomly guessing. Well written, excellent characters, you'll love it.

I think Frederik Pohl would be pleased that the crater named after him caused this.
