it's my evening for exploring the full contours of my mild dyslexia.
Show Postoh wait; I'm totally mixing it up with Battlestar Galactica! I don't think I've ever seen B5. my points about the expanse stand! but obviously must be adjusted. duh.

Show PostB5 is riffing on war of the worlds, in which they do to us what we did to them. in the expanse, the colonized do commit violent atrocities, against their oppressors and each other, but they always remain the colonized. the polarity isn't reversed.
Show PostI think it's really smart about settler colonialism and violence in a way that's pretty rare. Among other things, it does not really do reverse colonialism, which B5 very much does.
