Paul: “I’m gonna overthrow this fascist government to install my own even bigger one”
OP: “So true!”
Atreideez nuts
joke’s on you I never read the sequels
If Muad’dib was based we could at least make the point about two terrors, but he just replaced capitalist/feudal caste system empire with theocratic capitalist/feudal caste system empire, and his son forced nearly entire humanity to live in subsistence farming, and engineered hunger and scattering times that were so horrible that even 1500 years later still nobody even wanted to talk about that.
Actually, the best option there was was that when Paul and Jessica would die somewhere between the fall of Arteides and arriving at sietch Tabr. Jamis, you had one job… Or maybe if he destroyed the spice, humanity would eventually recover but without the nightmare of spice and ubermensch sects.
Dune is like if Baron Trump went to Gaza, Joined HAMAS, crushed Israel, then killed Joe Biden, and made himself god-emperor of the entire world.
Spoilers!!!
Now that would be a good Doctor Who episode.
It’s not nearly liberal enough to be a Doctor Who episode
It is definitely a message of Dune that occupied people have the unquestionable right of violent resistance against empire

Who said that this is the message of Dune? I just said that there are rebels who are fighting against the empire. And by rebels I mean the Fremen.
These movies show the conflict, to some degree or another, from the side of the oppressed. As soon as a movie shows the chosen race + ethnicity of people living in relative okay conditions due to benefiting from said fascism, people often side with the empire.
Starship Troopers being an obvious example.
OP replace Dune with Hunger Games.
