The other day, I was reminded of this book I read years ago called Black Star Rising. It involves friendly but stupid aliens that keep finding planets where one group is oppressed by another. They always try to “help” the oppressed, but every single time, this results in the accidental annihilation of both groups. Every single time, they think they’ll do better next time and pledge to save the next oppressed group.

It just occurred to me that if you wrote this book now, people would think it was satirizing American foreign policy.
