A copy that has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. In New York in the middle of the twentieth century, comic book companies fi gured out how to make millions from comics without paying their creators an ything. In San Francisco at the start of the twenty-first century, tech com panies figured out how to make millions from online abuse without paying it s creators anything. In the 1990s, Adeline drew a successful comic book series that ended up mak ing her kind-of famous. In 2013, Adeline aired some unfashionable opinions that made their way onto the Internet. The reaction of the Internet, being a tool for making millions in advertising revenue from online abuse, was pr edictable. The reaction of the Internet, being part of a culture that hates women, was to send Adeline messages like 'Drp slut . hope u get gang rap e.' Set in a San Francisco hollowed out by tech money, greed and rampant gentrification, I Hate the Internet is a savage indictment of the intolerable bullshit of unregulated capitalism and an uproarious, hilarious but above all furious satire of our Internet Age.
