Is this a parody?

Redux splits things up that belong together. Redux makes you write more code. Of course it's more complex.

Even it's creator advised that you probably don't need it.

This is my whole point. Redux in itself is not complex. The elaborate flows people create with it are complex.

It's not Redux's fault that you're using it when you shouldn't be.

Store, selector, reducer, dispatch, action...

Redux is concept overload. It's abstractions on top of abstractions on top of abstractions...

It makes simple things complex.
