Rulebreakers in fiction
May. 22nd, 2017 09:21 pmA month ago I wrote about earnest young people thinking change possible and how I someday want to think clearly enough to find a good path. I recently saw the first episode of
Blake's 7(1978) and the resistance group on Earth reminded me of such people. I suppose that, as I mentioned the Red Army Faction, such groups would have been newsworthy around the time that the episode's story was written. Perhaps the idea of normal people being able to effect change was part of the show's appeal though in that case it was not all sunshine and rainbows.
