The Yuuzhan Vong story arc in the old Star Wars Expanded Universe wasn't exactly great, and the "nice space vampires" trend-chasing trash that followed was pretty bad, but what a lot of people don't seem to remember, and what I only remembered just now, was that the early villain figure in the Vong arc was some angry Twi'lek lady that was leading what was called the "Diversity Alliance" and was actually an asset of the Vong. Basically, space SJW that wants space diversity is actually a space religious terrorist asset. :sus-torment:

    Herbert for sure has some Opinions About Women. He wrote another book which was about a supervirus bioweapon that only kills women, and the first symptom is getting uncontrollably horny. One of the scientists who is working on a cure informs her research team that she is going to die by revealing that she had masturbated that morning

      If a feminist fiction author of Herbert's time had written that kind of a story as satire they'd probably be in english literary canon for it. It's so pig-headed and backwards that it wraps back around to being funny.
