      looking "a bit" like activists isn't much of an argument he's her comment on activism, though.

      He looks a lot like caricatures of activists, and there are no activists in this world to compare him to. So it seems reasonable to wonder what that says re her ideas about changing society.

      Like, our dreams are limited, bu my the limits have meaning, and here and in omegas part of the impossible dream is apparently that ppl like MLK exist.

      Haber's first big dream literally eliminates MLK from history I mean, this is extremely explicit in the story It's Heather's whole backstory -- her mom and dad met organizing for SNCC, her parents got together because of her white dad's efforts at performative allyship

      Does it? Or is MLK even there? It certainly seems like it’s Le Guin who erases him first...

      SNCC would not have existed if not for the civil rights movement And SNCC is central to Heather's backstory, and Heather is a major character

      If the activist efforts at change are a failure which shape Heather, and she’s gobsmacked by Orr’s quiet strength, and he rescues her from her anger through dreaming her as his wife...

      Is it really an alternative to Haber? Or just another illustration that the quiet humble seeker is the superior option?

      I don't really know what you're saying here -- the point of the book is that none of the "effective dreams" have actually been positive changes to the world, although none of them are purely negative either, and they can't simply be undone after they happen

      George's "natural" dreams aren't "good dreams" either The dream machine is called the Augmentor because all it does is amplify what George is already doing in his dreams -- Haber isn't George's opposite exactly, just an enabler of George's selfishness/weakness
