Since the first science fiction writers tried to imagine the future and the technologies related to the future, science fiction changed a lot. Intelligent people started to realize that the elite have created a huge censorship to let people know only what is necessary, or that usually instead of real informations based on facts and logic, the elite uses ideology driven propaganda to keep average people obedient to the elite. These intelligent people started using science fiction as the most powerful tool to bypass the censorship in order to tell the truth to other intelligent people, because all intelligent people like science fiction.
My favorite science fiction writer is Ray Bradbury, because he was a truly intelligent man, who managed to explain me a lot of things during my childhood. I think the most troubled science fiction writer was Philip K Dick. As far as I know, he had mental problems and used heavy drugs, therefore his writings are not always clear and concise, but still contain useful informations.
What about you? Have you managed to understand that only science fiction writers pass truthworthy knowledge today?

Good thread and subject, and I agree that sci-fi is a genre for discussing taboo subjects in public.

Star Trek Deep Space 9 is about the Jews. The Bajorans are how Jews project themselves, religious people who underwent terrible occupation and slavery and genocide. The Ferengi are how normal people see the jews, disgusting merchants who cheat everyone without a hint of guilt and follow a long list of crazy old rules and treat their own women as second class. The Founders/Changlings/Shape shifters are who the Jews really are, the ones controlling everything behind the scenes who make others to fight for them, the Jem-hadar, and those who interact with the rest of the peoples, the Vorta. Their name is the Dominion. They are all from a different part of the galaxy and get to the Alpha quadrant via a wormhole.
