yeah its very fun for us readers to interpret their meaning, or else we wouldn't find anything to discuss that would be boring lol

yeah creating a different world and trying to make it logical in a sense, and still reflect on the real world, is really great, it passes over the head of lots of people, when reading super hero comics for example, like oh this is just for fun, this is just fictional, but X-men for example have been dealing with the diversity of the human race, for the longest time, two teams one human majority and the other a super powered mutant minority, you can take out the majority and the minority and put in any two opposing factions in any part of our lives, and you will see that it fits perfectly, and then the part about acceptance of the other, and treating them with the kindness and humanity that they deserve, because in the end we are all humans, except superman that dude is a verified alien don't be fooled by his spectacles!

he didn't exactly say that, but he made up a union nation of 9 planets, and their combined population is 5.5B, i just connected the dots lol
and i totally agree, maybe it didn't even cross his mind, and i am projecting my own thoughts, but dude is smart enough to make complicated Sci-fi worlds, so he probably meant it.
