    Of course, since the writers lived “here”, were all human and shaped by many of the same events. The question is what does that middle circle contain? I could be banal like “has human characters”…

      The middle circle contains small parts of motives from these novels: Handmaids tale: descending women rights etc

        “Handmaid’s tail etc”?

        How do you give one example of 25% of the chart and say “because of this one weird thing, basically everything equals the middle circle”

        Yeah but if there is supposed to be overlap between all movies/books it’s going to be generic like “Shit’s fucked up”

          More like “humans controlling humans gone wrong #12 hit that like and smash that substitute button”.

        Currently it’s technically “what’s common in all 4 of those books”, tho. I guess union and not intersection is a bit more suitable, but still not quite, and I’m too lazy to try to remember set theory stuff and search for something better
