I
used to think the idea of aliens having human zoos was horrifying but
honestly if a bunch of aliens want to watch me sit and watch Netflix all
day in a cozy little environment where I don’t have to pay for rent or
food and they have human-specialist doctors on hand as needed, IDK,
like. I’d be all right with it.
white ppl: lol human zoos?? what a crazy made up concept! sounds fun! sign me up! lmao
I don’t know who said it goes but pretty much someone said that the reason a lot of shit in “Sci-Fi” is terrifying to white people is because it’s taking all the evil shit they’ve done to People of Color and show it happening to White people as well they just jazz it up to make it futuristic/alien.
Forced sterilization/Governmental control over Births, Eugenics, human zoos, extermination of humanity, chattel slavery, human breeders, poisoned evironments/foods, indoctrination, etc.
We all can think of at least on form of Sci-Fi media where that happens and if you google any of those with mention Sci-Fi you’ll get straight up examples of these happening to PoC in real life.
i’ve said it before the reason why white people make stories where aliens colonize and robots kill off the human race is because that is all they know and understand
they fear retribution, they fear their sins coming back to haunt
As soon as I read the first post I immediately thought of Saartjie “Sarah” Baartman a Khoikhoi woman who was sexualized in freak shows from the time she was a teenager. Many WoC were exhibited in freakshows (often naked) and it was really just for the titillation of sick white men.Â
Soon as a grown black woman says “lemme explain something to you” very calmly, just shut up because you already lost that fight and she about to rip you a whole new asshole
