I pretty much know nothing about it, and would like to learn.
Wikipedia is probably terrible, and I don't know where else to go besides there.
Also, let's throw in some information about the DPRK too while we're at it. All I've ever read about them are ridiculous stories about how they consider Kim Jong-Un to be a god-king and that they set up entire fake cities to fool western tourists.
Not necessarily. Could be a hive, for example.
That's a social system. They'd have bias.
I'm not sure I agree. I think people have a tendancy to project human society like attributes onto hives, but they are fundamentally different.
Like a multi celled organism is essentially a complex sweet of micro organism symbiosis. You could draw parallels with human societies, but they are fundamentally different.
Regardless, you are right. Aliens would have some kind of bias because their experience of consciousness would be shaped by the limitations of their perception in some way.
I also intended it as not entirely serious hyperbole.
