Hey everyone, I had a bit of an interesting idea recently. We should have our own Libre Culture Lemmy Book and/or Film Club! The rules are quite simple.
Any content we choose to discuss must be either in the public domain or must have a license that’s approved for free cultural works.
Every three months, we vote on a new film or novel to read, or a collection of short stories that are about the length of a novel combined. Other media could be allowed as well. Downvoting suggestions isn’t allowed, unless the suggested content is inappropriate.
I can’t wait to see how this’ll go! Please let me know what you guys think of this idea, and let’s begin voting in this comment section what we’d like to watch/read in March!
Interesting suggestion knowing how badly Assange’s image has aged. I remember back in college I was a huge fan of his ideas but the recent undeniable paper trails connecting wikileaks to Russian and other government propaganda kinda ruins the idea behind the book - sure it was 2012 but it’ll be a tough read nevertheless.
It could be interesting as a bit of a retrospective. A look into the past, knowing the context of the present.
