Frank Herbert totally invented all of this stuff out of thin air and didn’t have any historical precedent to work with at all.

@Diplomjodler3 Just like no writer has ever taken any inspiration from anything that has ever happened 😁

@Diplomjodler3 @NickEast_IndieWriter not true, the inspiration was clearly rooted in Middle Eastern culture, Islam and for “spice” read oil.

I mean, obviously the holy war and spice was based on the Middle East and oil, but getting “fat orange pedophile god-king” right is a pretty incredible coincidence. And it would be Lynch’s prediction, not Herbert’s
