>lets imagine a future society IN SPACE>we have feudalism IN SPACE>democracy IN SPACE>both will tend to either gravitate toward star trek aesthetics or ww2 germany.
>>18552451and theyll all be extremely militaristic in some way or another too
>>18552451Pic related BTW
>>18552462its also warhammer, star wars, various space opera anime(like banner of the star or galactic hero), battletech, star trek.
>>18552451A lot of space fiction is just extrapolated modern aesthetics
>>18552451My headcanon is that space societies would look like bronze age city states because of the absurd distances between places, with vastly different cultures and technological progresses
>>18552451>>18552466come up with 1 (one) fresh original aesthetic for a spacefaring civilization
There was a bit of space anarchism in Ursula Le Guin and Robert Heinlein?
>>18552453I think it's really overlooked how technologically centralized and authoritarian a system would have to be in order to consolidate power over any bit of outer space. Something like the republic from Star Wars could simply never exist. It would suffer internal turmoil constantly.
>>18552522A FUTURISTIC SOCIETY but IN SPACE CAT and with CATS.
