  1. Ich feiere heute gelungene Blog-Dialoge wie gerade zu Frank Herberts Wüstenplanet-Zyklus "Dune"! Im Blogpost ging es um die Warnungen vor politisch-dualistischem Messianismus, aber in den Kommentaren von @ElisabethK , @silberspur et al. kommen wir auch zu weiblichen Messias-Figuren, SciFi-Leserschaften, Harkonnen vs. Fremen als Umwelt-Mitwelt-Kontrast...

    So macht das Fediversum Freude! #Blogpost #Dune #Messianismus #Frauen #Umwelt vs. #Mitwelt #Harkonnen vs. #Fremen scilogs.spektrum.de/natur-des-

  2. And there's no subtlety in #DunePartTwo in depicting the #Fremen as being based on #Arab and #Muslim peoples and #culrures, #Spice as #oil, and all of the "great houses" as primarily the #European-based and derived parasites of the "West".

    I'm typically clueless on #subtext and didn't get any of that until I read what people posted after #DunePartOne.

    (Don't tell me about the books, thanks)

  3. @TatianaIlyina Of course :eyeroll: the photo shows #Harkonnen troopers protecting a #spice harvester on #Arrakis also known as #Dune der #Wüstenplanet. 😬

    Note that the whole galaxy was dependent on the spice melange and many wars were fought over its control.
    Like the Harkonnens which cared most for their profits and little for human life.
    In the end the #Fremen drove the Harkonnens off and took control over their #planet.
