- The books and recent movies got praised for being progressive somehow? Frank Herbert is a conservative, Republican white dude and his bad politics are all over it
- He was like "I'm going to create a new series with a different style so I'm going to spend a few years living with the desert people, now I know what they are like, get ready for orientalist and racist tropes all over the place with my sand people stuff"
- The whole series surrounds eugenics
- Seriously the main character is himself a privileged blue eyed white guy who turns out to be the savior of the brown people
- I find the writing style to be extremely painful

Sand worms rule though, can't deny that
