This is the official hexbear Dune discussion thread (not really)
I watched the new Dune and enjoyed the films from a cinematic/fantasy perspective but wasn't super on-board with the politics as I thought the message was simply 'leaders bad', but what didn't come across (imo) from the movies and what I'm learning from discussion of the books is that the message is more nuanced than that: Herbert's message wasn't "don't blindly follow leaders because they're evil", but "don't blindly follow leaders because movements based on blind belief are a force of their own and can sweep everyone up into a mess, even if that was not at all the intention", and there are of course examples of that happening throughout human history. I want to hear all of your thoughts on the books, the films, and the messages. Thanks. 
Fuck me... that's good!
Explain it to me I don't get it.
I understand we're talking about Paul, and it's something to do with him being robotic? Why quizzical?
Its a play on the Dune made up phrase, "Kwisatz Haderach".
Its the thing the Bene Gesserit "witches" have been selectively breeding humans to create.
Oh! It was right in front of me. Thanks.
