things that bothered me:
- the idea of resistance to enslavement had to come from a being from a different galaxy, not from the enslaved ppl themselves (an alien savior instead of white savior lol)
- choosing to keep almost the entirety of the story in captivation and only the freedom at the end
- the desire to want to depict enslaved ppl being harmful to one another
- the desire to make one of the enslavers as a 'good person' pushing the narrative that 'they weren't all bad'
