...and thankfully, the presentation makes the fanfic.

I've sometimes wandered over to the comments sections of some more politically-inclined websites, and I do have to say that you hit it right on the nose in terms of the kinds of comments you might find there. Some of the comments were really crazy: in particular, I tended to roll my eyes at the religious idiot who completely misinterpreted one of the poleepkwan comments on choice as it refers to reproduction. I also loved how some of the less well-spelled comments come from the unintelligent people: as far as I'm concerned, that tends to happen quite a lot on these websites. So reading this comment track was great.

And overall, I think it tapped into the wonderful world-building that made District 9 such a great movie in the first place. It did a wonderful job of giving us a potential window into what the rest of the world might think, and it did so without hammering us in the face with a ton of exposition. That, good sir, is one of the hardest ways to build a world, and you hit every cue exactly right.

So overall, this was a really good fic. Well done!
