honestly, any plot in sci-fi that feels cartoonishly evil is barely even a reflection of how even more fucked the reality it's based on really is. Used to be when I was watching gundam I thought to myself "there's no way that people en masse would just be in full support of a nepo baby 4th reich"...

Evangelistic Christians? Oh Everyone dies and the vast number of non true believers experience untold suffering for eternity! 🫠
