Part 9/11:
As humanity embarks on an exploration of becoming a galactic player, the potential to uplift various species raises a host of questions about interstellar ethics and interaction. Should uplifting become a common practice among civilizations, it would undoubtedly shape how future intelligent species view themselves and their communities. The implications reach beyond mere survival and cooperation; they touch on autonomy and the choice of destiny.
The exchange of technology may introduce condescension rather than collaboration, straining relationships. As humanity expands into the cosmos, it might face characters differences and the push and pull of ideologies, some of which may view uplifting as a means to consolidate control over these new civilizations.
