Lamina1 is enough to prove Stephenson is kind of full of shit.
It’s such a joke it doesn’t even have its own Wikipedia entry. It’s just a footnote on Stephenson’s.
I’m just gonna call it like I sees it:
I put Stephenson in the same camp as Orson Scott Card.
He had a single book with some really brilliant and thoughtful ideas… and that’s about it. People need money to stay alive, and can always be swayed by it.
Them again, “a single book with some really brilliant and thoughtful ideas” is one book more than most authors, much less internet commenters will ever put out.

Hang on a second. Orson Scott Card is a homophobic motherfuck. What’d NS do that is so bad?
He’s into NFTs, if there’s something else idk about it
That’s not fair. Multiple books of his books are award winning. Even if you only like one, the critics rate him. Other writers, rate him.
Which of his amazing books is the “single good book” you’re referring to?
Anathem came to mind for me. Each reply naming a different book is pretty funny.
Maybe SeveNeveS
Speaker for the Dead is my guess
That’s the sequel to Ender’s Game. It is good, but it is Orson Scott Card.
Probably Snow Crash
Which is kinda silly anyway, and I love Snow Crash, but it wasn’t even close to his most interesting book.
