- gamblor956 2y agoNo, the Fremen jihad was necessary to delay the Golden Path, a series of wars and genocides so violent they would push men to spread our amongst the stars. (Retconned by his son and KJA to provide for pockets of human survival after the robots return to exterminate most of mankind.)
- philistine 2y agoThe fact it was ultimately necessary in Paul's reading of the future doesn't mean it's not a tragedy. By your logic, if I can find a future benefit for a genocide, I can't call that a tragedy.
