Miller's decades past his prime. He doesn't have any real influence on anything anymore. But the idea that his ideas are bold, new or carry any of the influence that his 80's work does is a joke. His books are laughed at half the time now when they aren't outright offensive. He doesn't even seem to have original ideas anymore. He strings tropes together and stereotypes.

He does still sell books to people. That much is true.

And this is not an appreciation thread. People can criticize the book all they want.
