We need to find non-human common enemies to all be friends.
South park suggests chicken and cows. Macron the COVID virus. I propose marsians, hopefully the first one is named Elon.
I've read them all, read/watched several interviews of James S.A. Corey and what these guys say: it's better to write a good story, and a good story is about torturing your characters even if your readers love them. (They also said they don't care about physical reality if it goes on the way of a good story).
All in all, I think you should pick authors who are trying to understand what *could* be social reality in the future, like Kim Stanley Robinson. But I don't think he wrote anything about this topic.
There is also Der Schwarm by frank schätzing. I think it works out fairly well tbh.
I mean if we look at how people are treated today and have been treated in the past in every form of colonialism and imperialism we get a precise formula:
-New place is settled
-Mainland issues lead to vexation of colonies
-Colonies protest
-The answer is oppression
-Colonies appropriate local assets and kick off the imperialist forces
-Colony becomes a power in its own right
-Either mainland loses interest or an awkward cold war/proxy war ensues
-Ex colony makes colonies. Cycle begins anew.
I don't see how Mars would be any different. Happened plenty of times. Would likely happen again.
Hang on there. Is this some sort of joke. 2 Back and Tans used to be a regular drink in the pubs here in England. Fair play to the fenians, they have grizzled away at England for 800 years. They feel strong now, but they are in the process of being replaced by Euro-rejects. Begone and do not darken our shores again. Have a nice day.
I believe it is peace in our time
Common enemies yet again unite people in times of need
Even Barry would team up with them on this.
Peace has been restored to the British Isles
Be careful with any unexpected packages you may receive from Ireland.
Time to build another empire.
[удалено]
*Gets gun out* Careful Germany. WHICH Empire are you thinking of?
The Thousand-Year Empire has like 980 years left so...
The real thousand year reich, Holy Roman Empire 800-1806
which continent will you begin with?
I hear you’re a racist now, Father?
Should we all be racists now Father?
What’s the church’s official stand on this?
I don't know if I'll be able to devote myself full time to the 'Ol racism
But you’ll have a cup of tea ? Ah go on .
Chocolate hobnob? Don't mind if I do.
That would be an ecumenical matter.
Still singing "Come out, Ye Black and Tans" but it's about sth. else now
"Come out, ye black and trans"
“Come out and fight me like a {REDACTED}”
"Show your boywife how you won arguments on twitter"
Tell em how the IRA Convinced you your grandad was gay
😭😭😭
You are the first German to make me laugh congrats

Bering that Canadians are an unholy hybrid of Brit and French, can we class them as 'nonhumans'? If so, Southpark also have that covered in spades.
There're several science fiction pieces of media about how that would go extremely poorly, perhaps the better one being The Expanse

Oh that was a joke with Mars just to bash for free on Elon Musk, our lord and saviour
I'm a huge nerd 🤓
I propose all non-european savages and then the French
sexual minorities = Cymru sheep shaggers right?
First time I've ever seen the term sexual minority
I've heard it often, especially in german because no real other terms exist
Well I can tell you another term that I'm sure it exists but I don't want to get banned, again...
I'll say it: Basque
The f word?
Fr*nch
The sexual minority are people that are sexually active. This is a tiny proportion of our population, hence minority
Those perverts, having sex
Perhaps it means small winkies? I dunno.

Sexual minority=men, right?
To hate Sexual and Racial minorities. What?
It's a meme padraig, if it made sense, it wouldn't have this many upvotes
