Not much of a revelation, just an observation, but how much of sci-fi pushes the ideal that Humanity's path forward is unification?
Star Trek is a major one, and many would state it was a progressive show, and it earnestly was.
It also stated that in its ideal future, there's a Federation of like-minded extraterrestrials, and as a member species, Humanity lives in a united, post-scarcity society under a single government.
To that end, how many alien species in these stories are so inhuman, in that they have no differences, a world-wide government, a single language?
It's laughable how direct the propaganda was, and continues to be.
This is quite odd coming from anyone originating from Japan.
The globalist flood’s been wearing down their culture ever since Commodore Matthew C. Perry forced them to open up.
Their staunch “xenophobia” (not a term I agree with, tbh; I prefer “understandable in-group preference”) has just done a lot to curb the effects of globalization, but it’s only a matter of time.
