They are the future but destiny is a genetic thing.

Why are there no Muslims in the Star Trek series?

Because it takes place in the future.

I haven’t read to many science fiction that are overtly or even hint of fascism. When I encounter one, I find a new book. The biggest challenge right now in recent science-fiction is many they delve into sexual perversions and other garbage.

RASCISM not facism. Siri is a pain on iPad.

People like this Miranda are a bright and shiny argument for the return of trade schools focused entirely on learning an employable skill, and the dismantling of our college system which is too prone to takeover by leftard indoctrinators.

Sophomoric review. Author cannot be older than 22 and cannot have read much SF.

Some cultures are superior to others. It’s not racism if it’s true.

" One of the species is coded to be representative of a white elite society while another species is coded as dark skinned, brutal and not civilized."

I see. A sort of SiFi behavioral bell curve.

All I want, is a TV commercial for a home security system, in which the scary burglar is played by a black man.

Is that too much to ask?

Apparently, it is. All burglars are white.

Veronica Roth’s comments from the NPR interview on this book:

“Akos is raised to believe that Cyra’s people, the Shotet, are these kind of brutal people who are just like coming after Akos’ people. And [Cyra] was raised to believe that [Akos’] people have a history of oppressing the Shotet.”

I have never read her books, but I assume she writes better than she speaks.

All I want, is a TV commercial for a home security system, in which the product is Smith and Wesson.

(and the scary burglar is "neutralized")

Well, there is no political gain in that.
