Big update to story


So, a lot of things have changed. I decided to move the story from it's battleground context to an urban resistance one.


As I am trying to analyze the rhetoric of fascism, conversation and visible actions are the best way to deliver that. War, although a high stake situation that can easily portray the worst consequences of fascism, it isn’t the best context for rhetoric to be explored. Bullets and bombs do the talking in war, and nuanced positions are more easily discarded as either conceding to the enemy or as useless thought experiments. A civil setting where there are still resistance efforts, would be a better context to explore the rhetoric and the perspectives of fascism, while being able to show a diverse cast of characters with their own beliefs and experiences.


I'll share more of the story and character development in the next one. See you then!
