I didn’t read it but I think its an opinion piece and should be read as fiction. I’m sure if he wrote it well from the perspective of fiction it would sell well. Like The Circle. When anyone blabs about society the way they see it, I’m not sure what genre that fits into. I think they fictionalize it further to make it fit into the fiction genre. Or is this a new type of genre for our day and age without publishers and peer review. Much just like how people digest info from social media comments.
