Stormlight Archive is so fucking clearly written by a liberal because the author keeps intentionally shaping the narrative to make a peasant revolution—the obvious solution to all of their society's problems—unfeasible and inconvenient.

"A peasant revolution!? No, that would be too scary. Oh look, world ending threat. Now we don't have time for your bullshit peasant revolution. Go sit in your corner, Kaladin" - Dalinar Kholin (paraphrased)

Thinking about safehands in Vorinism, and how some women are uncomfortable with a glove while others are fine with it. So basically, a sweater-paw that obscures even the shape of the hand is the Vorin equivalent of a loose sweater, hiding the figure completely. A glove is the equivalent of a tight-fitting top; you can see all the shapes but not the body part itself. In our culture, the thing that is most scandalous to see is the nipple, though it looks absolutely the same as a male nipple. So bringing this to its logical conclusion, the scandalous part of a female safehand, which nobody is ever allowed to see even though it looks absolutely the same on the other hand, Is fingernails. That’s it, folks, fingernails are nipples.

look i know the szeth prologue carries a lot of introductory information as to the magic system and how it can be used (and if there is one thing the cosmere in general excels at it is using the rules of a hard magic system in interesting ways for fight scenes) but it is so crazy that his internal monologue is so full of grief for what he is about to do and his first spoken line is "what am i? i'm sorry" and then he starts killing people in such an overcomplicated rube goldbergian way. why'd he lash a guy to the ceiling above an upright spear and just wait (fearspren spawning up around them) until the lashing broke and he impaled himself. you didnt have to do that man no one was around to see it
