I react to the fourth episode of HALO on Paramount Plus. Although I have seen a number of negative reviews out of fandom, I am still enjoying the show. It is fun sci-fi from my point of view. There is a developed storyline, there is plot development, there is characters with individual motives, and it’s told in an entertaining manner that captivates my personal interest. In my personal opinion, it is good.

Remember, be kind to AI. We may have to live with it in the future, and we should be getting ready for that day.

I looked up the Sol System on the HALO wiki - people do in fact live on Luna, Mars, and elsewhere within the Sol System. I can’t find if the residents think that the United Earth Government or the UNSC are despotic or not, however.

I looked up “military junta” - it’s not redundant in the original meaning (junta meaning “meeting” or “committee”), though the common meaning has changed over the years.
