some of them don't? some people who like the book (read: asshole dudebro fans, cough cough) don't get it; a LOT of people who dislike the book don't get it, and both of them somehow get the idea that it's about glorifying the military's actions??? WHO EVEN KNOWS

I TOTALLY UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU MEAN AND IF YOU CONTINUE WITH THE SERIES ITS SO INCREDIBLE UGH I HATE WHEN PEOPLE MISUNDERSTAND THAT BOOK BECAUSE IT IS SO GOOOOOD
THAT WHOLE SCENE AT THE END OF XENOCIDE
'I WAS JUST TRYING TO DO WHAT ENDER WIGGIN WOULD HAVE DONE'
I mean ffs even the way Children of the Mind ends - though that ending drives me bonkers and is the most unsatisfying part of the series by far IMO - is about moving past that initial overreaction/use of force in a DIRECT PARALLEL to the Formic Wars
