Instead, just don't read them and keep it to yourself, platform on the positive new people emerging
I think the point is being aware
For example in Star Trek (minor spoilers)
its established that aliens
made first contact with us in Montana.I didn't think much about that and just unconsciously accepted "of course they made contact with America "It wasn't until 40 years later in Enterprise that a Japanese character points how fucking terrified Japan and the rest of the world was when hyper advanced aliens turned up and straight away made an alliance with the US.It was a fantastic point and one that went right over my head because of my own biases Youwon't see a lot of stories where aliens come and make contact with Chille. or where the captain of the ship is Indian. Only Indian captain I can think of is from 7 Days A Skeptic and he's not the main character it is good food for thought
