Of course, since the writers lived "here", were all human and shaped by many of the same events. The question is what does that middle circle contain? I could be banal like "has human characters"...

The middle circle contains small parts of motives from these novels: Handmaids tale: descending women rights etc

"Handmaid's tail etc"?

How do you give one example of 25% of the chart and say "because of this one weird thing, basically everything equals the middle circle"

Yeah but if there is supposed to be overlap between all movies/books it's going to be generic like "Shit's fucked up"

Currently it's technically "what's common in all 4 of those books", tho. I guess union and not intersection is a bit more suitable, but still not quite, and I'm too lazy to try to remember set theory stuff and search for something better

That’s actually soothing. Allow me to latch on to that to the exclusion of scarier options.
