Ledericas@lemm.ee 1 day agoor they decide to enslave humans.
Honestly, I don’t think anyone in their right mind would risk it! We’re certifiably insane when in large masses, we’d ruin their civilisation if they’d get us all.
We’d deffo see Bezos/Musk/Zuck/etc. becoming the Breens of our timeline, and we already hate’em!
i was thinking GOAULD, aside from a couple of the system lords(Osiris evil as she was her lore in the show was wanting humans to literate , while her brother was seth was against it), most of them had impoverished slaves, ra even banned reading and writing, sound familiar to prevent the slaves turning against him on another planet.
Good point, I guess it would be back to considering the permanence of The Cave allegory. I still have that gut feeling that humanity has a sort of in-built desire for freedom and self-determination which exists somewhere beyond the conceptual, something innate. Maybe its materialisation just takes a long enough timeline and that the species is offered relative stability in terms of genetics/psychological development (i.e. they don’t just outright lobotomise us and turn us into Servitors, or smth…)

Tbh, if you have a working Alcubierre drive, slavery seems like it would be a waste of resources.
