     Re-reading Dune for the first time since I was a teenager. A _lot_ of nuances I missed / didn’t remember, but I think the biggest is that the whole Fremen prophecy that Paul fulfills? The whole Mighty Whitey come from space to liberate everyone thing? It was PLANTED. Spreading these prophecies is a Bene Gesserit thing that they just do, just in case, so they’ll be able to wield power wherever they go.
