Brian Herbert's "Golden Path"
Posted: 16 Apr 2013 14:05
Perusing the board for a while now, I've seen many great posts; many great threads of deep thought, regarding Dune.
And while I've seen thoughts of brilliance from the OH - I've also noticed unmistakable feelings of long-repressed anger and frustration expressing itself.
Given what Brian and the hack has done to the work of art that you've come to love and cherish, this is understandable.
But from what I understand, for the longest time, on Dune Novels.com, people's unique viewpoints towards the series, and their thoughts toward the authors were strictly forbidden - and highly regulated.
In short, Brian, for what he did to the Dune Universe as a whole, and his treatment of all the people who held it dear, had made him something of a Tyrant.
Then suddenly, movements like Jacurutu were born - a great Scattering of Dune fans initiated and they have begun to spread out - all over Cyberspace.
I can't help but wonder, if perhaps the Son of the greatest writer in history - took a path - a horrifying path that his father saw, and refused to take..
- And did so, to create a repressive state for all Dune fans - so that they may one day seek to escape his tyranny by scattering.
Perhaps he saw a greater threat - and did what horrors he saw that needed to be done?
Brian Herbert is now nothing but a giant, fat worm, living in a mansion - controlling what happens and doesn't happen in the universe - and is engineering through his thoughts and actions - a great Scattering amongst fans.
Maybe he's trying to save Dune and it's loyal fans from something evil - and driving them far enough to the distant corners of cyberspace, so that try as they might, no one would ever be able to silence them all?
He might truly be a savior.
