The following are [[Subjective Tropes]] relating to [[{{ROOTPAGENAME}}|''Firefly'']].
----
* [[Accidental Aesop]]: From the main page under [[Strawman Political]], the Core Worlds are [[Crystal Spires and Togas|peaceful and prosperous]], but [[Screw the Rules, I Make Them|the government can do damn near anything they want]] to their citizens as long as they can [[I Did What I Had to Do|justify it]] -- such as [[Playing with Syringes|cut up little girls' brains]] or {{spoiler|[[Government Drug Enforcement|dose entire planets with mind control drugs]]}}. The Rim Worlds are [[Crapsack World|anarchic and destitute]], but [[It's Up to You|you can always look your accuser in the eye and settle it one way or another]] -- or even [[Training the Peaceful Villagers|round up a posse of fellow victims and exact some frontier justice]]. The [[Some Anvils Need to Be Dropped|argument]] seems to be that ''[[Order Versus Chaos|a healthy civilization needs both]]'' and any attempt to "[[Utopia Justifies the Means|rid the world of sin]]" will do [[Gone Horribly Wrong|nothing but harm]] in [[Gone Horribly Right|the long run]]. Powerful stuff.<br /><br />As for the Aesop being Accidental, see [[What Do You Mean It's Not Political?]], below.
Line 52:
** [[Stoic Woobie]]: Simon has to deal with pretty much everything his sister is going through, and received little to no support from either of his parents when he made his move to get her out of there.
