What is a Primal?
But by the late 22nd century, only the global underclass are still Primals. And their living conditions are abysmal – even worse than today’s global underclass. Proposal for the Extinction of the Primal Species (PEPS) In the late 22nd century, the d-humans have decided it’s time to get rid of the remaining Primals. But they’re too humane to kill us off. So the United Nations came up with PEPS – the Proposal for the Extinction of the Primal Species. How can the UN – an institution that’s meant to protect against genocide – come up with PEPS? Because Primals are no longer viewed as the same species as d-humans, so we have barely more rights for protection than chimpanzees. Primals on Trial

But as the hearing progresses, Eusebio hits back: he accuses Harry Shields and the d-humans of being the ones responsible for these atrocities of history. |
