Read this for one of my lit classes. Very interesting to discuss. Butler's the greatest to ever do it.

Guy who's twice as old as everyone else in the class lowkey came out as an anti-vaxxer during one of our discussions and conflated cherry-picking the genetic traits of an unborn fetus to vaccinating a live baby. So. There's that.
