I love the praise the Dune book series gets on here and on Chapo pod, and dig everything Denis V has done.
Before watching Lynch's Dune, I was hyped up expecting trade wars and discussions of imperialism and resource based economies, but the film didn't really care about that. Then the end kinda implies his godliness and Jihad is a good thing?
Am I missing something? I wan to jump on the hype train!
I mean Herbert grew up in a socialist commune and was your garden variety oregon lolbertarian settler when he grew up, so Idk that it's comparable to starship troopers. Star wars is probably a good comp
