there is an opportunity here for LG15 to serve as a social/ philosophical commentary, like the tale of Plato's Cave.

"The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents. We live on a placid island in the midst of black seas of infinity and it was not meant that we should voyage far. Some day the piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality that we shall either go mad from the relevation or flee from the deadly light into the peace and safety of a new dark age. Theosophists have guessed at the awesome grandeur of the cosmic cycle wherein our world and human race form transient incidents."
-- Lovecraft; Call of Cthulhu

Yes, this intrigues a lot of people. LG15 so far has been like the Mona Lisa or a Rorschach test. Throw in a mysterious meme or two, be circumspect about where you are going with them, and look at how the audience responds according to their prior knowledge, their prior understanding or misunderstandings.

Most famous is the hugely common audience assumption that Bree's religion is some sort of dark or dangerous cult. Nothing of the sort has yet been stated by the lg15 series. Slap up a picture of an ambiguous historical figure about which a lot of controversial claptrap has been written and cultivated over the years, and the majority of fans will only research deeply enough to titilate their conspiracy leanings.

The audience response to LG15, especially compared with the audence response to the more unambigious ciw, is fascinating. People are so uncomfortable with ambiguities that they want very much to believe that the unambigious, paranoid ciw takes precedence over the ambiguous, possibly tolerance-themed LG15.

There may or may not be a lesson that can be drawn from that.
