not to be a pedant but this sort of post annoys me so bad bc ☝️☝️ in fact it’s the reverse: fantasy series often reflect societal biases. there is nothing evolutionarily “menacing” about wasps in comparison to bees. bees have better PR because we like to eat the stuff they make. that’s literally it. “agur only destruction” as if wasps don’t fill many of the SAME ecological roles as bees. they’re pollinators! they CREATE!!
people just assign moral value to living beings based on their own feelings and aesthetic choices. something that’s very common in fiction and one of the fantasy genre’s most notable flaws.
