I feel a little Kilmonger’d by the Belter revolutionaries
Can’t show a successful revolution in media. Not allowed. Unless it’s statedep approved “revolution”, i.e. overthrowing socialist government or some anarkiddo bullshit
I have heard from comrades that Andor lets us have the football for once, though I have not watched it.
I am watching DS9 and it is amazing to me that this show was released in the 90s with how obviously communist it is. I have not seen the famous “workers of the world” scene yet, but I did just watch Past Tense and just, goddamn. I did not expect the moral of a rather mainstream scifi show episode to be that people deserve to be fed, housed, and protected simply by virtue of being people, and we are all victims of capitalist circumstance, including the violent and angry. Violence can also be justified when in pursuit of revolutionary change.
Idk. Sisko is a Marxist-Leninist chad and I love him. It bums me out that popular scifi has only seemingly gotten worse since then.
