So the sci-fi great race fail of doom is FINALLY winding down

It got worse, since the last time that I made a comment about it. [livejournal.com profile] rydra_wong has the details if you want to see.


[livejournal.com profile] skywardprodigal's take is for me, one of the best insights about the whole affair.

I'm thinking that the current race fail in SFF reflects that neither technology nor progress could create a better world when one group of people aspire to and worship manifest destiny and American style imperialism without critiquing what it costs communities from which its default heroes are excluded.
