So did Dave Chappelle use the books as inspiration for his "Space Jews" joke?
It follows the same beats, just swap the asian girl and the zealots in his narrative contacting aliens and everything going really wrong lol.

So the aliens are lying about not understanding deception right?
Because how is it they understand everything else? Like Retribution for conquest?
You're telling me in all their history no one thought to scheme?

So after having watched the season, did the books have a minor researcher who was ok with the aliens taking over?
Were all the characters there but gender/racial swapped, or did the show actually invent characters just to representing?

No but some were. Almost everyone in the books is Chinese as you would expect from a Chinese author.
To answer one of your other questions. The aliens in the book don't understand lies and deception because their thoughts are all open to one another so they can't lie.

I accidentally spoiled myself by checking around reddit and discovering [SPOILER - highlight to read]: the aliens were actually being deceptive about the countdown and some.other things, never got the details but the takeaway was they could technically lie to lessers who lack telepathy, but Red Riding Hood was beyond them because as you say they would never deal with liars, as they read each others mind and would see right through it, and thus they had no concept of deception based cultures
I probably won't read the books and wait on the Netflix seasons, am already knee deep in another series "The Culture" (Would love to see how the Idirons, Shapers, or Culture would deal with the Trisolarans video game.)

I mean yeah makes sense, I guess. I just figured he made lemonade out of lemons with that.

It's only ok tbh, the story is great, acting is fantastic, and...
That's all I can say without risking a ban.
You know what you'd like it and wouldn't see the flaws I do because we are very different people. 😀

I don't know, I thought the chinese woman was great, the left wing nutjob was interesting, the Game of Thrones guy was likeable, most of the characters weren't deep but still interesting.. maybe that's because I was binging on Ben 10, characters are not that shows strong point.
Haven't seen foundations but have read the books, and heard they seriously ruined Salvor Hardin.
