I want Warrior Cats society to permanently change.

The cats all live in a structured system,

which is fun and interesting for somebody who's new to the series.

but after 40 to 60 books, you start to notice that

not only are all the clans the same, but they also have no reason to be separated in the way they are.

You start to get more exhausted by clan borders and romance rules than interested by them.

Along with, that the structure isn't utopian. It's not quite dystopian either, but it's flawed.

It's unfair, it's harsh to outsiders and it goes unexplained as to why their society thrives over others.

I mentioned that it's not utopian, specifically because these characters within warrior cats think that it is.

They seem to be under the impression that their way of living is the only way of living,

and it's backed by not only their in-universe religion,

but also the writing of the books themselves.

Up until the most recent series, and I expect through the most recent series,

despite it being called "The Broken Code",

the cats have always found that they are living in the best possible society,

despite constantly breaking its rules and exploiting its flaws.

So what I want to happen is that it gets... changed up a little!

For a while, their current structure worked fine because no other cats were in a society.

This group was isolated, and on some level

it was implied to be just how wild cats operated in general.

The warrior cats world seemed much, much bigger in the first arc than it did in the arcs to follow.

But then they introduced something terrible...

Introducing another group of cats living separately from the clans,

along with the concept that cats do not naturally live in clans, kinda stabs a hole in the warrior cats system,

because it makes me less forgiving of the flaws that it has.

In Warrior Cats, introducing another group is usually proving how much better the Warrior Cats clans are,

and a lot of the time the warrior cats are trying to force their culture on the other group.

It's part of the whole concept where the narrative is pushing that the best way for these cats to live

and the only way for cats to live is in the clans.

If we every have to go back to the mountains again in this series, it will be too soon.

even when Jayfeather is going back in time, establishing something or guiding the original tribe cats,

it all feels like an abstract distraction from the main plot.

And more importantly than that, as I said before, it feels like the tribe can't properly take care of themselves.

Repeatedly, they need to be helped, to be taught how to defend themselves,

to be taught how to be a society, even though they're older and more established than the Clans are,

to the point where they're being driven out by a ragtag group of young people and outcasts.

Going to visit the Tribe cats, in every book where they are visited, is treated like a chore.

They're written as if they're stupid and incompetent,

along with being so stubborn that they never actually listen to the advice of the Clan cats until it's too late.

They are written, in the books, as being inferior. They are not the only ones.

stray cats, kitty pets, along with any and all other groups.

The warrior Clans are considered the height of society, the perfect and infallible society,

both by the narrative and by the characters.

Every cat they come across either needs to be fixed by them, or treated with disdain,

and they do it to every single cat they meet,

Heck, Tigerheart's Shadow seems like it's going to be a book

where Tigerheart learns that forcing his culture on another group of people is wrong,

but it doesn't really accomplish that. Instead Tigerheart brings half the cats back with him

to go live in what he's convinced them is a perfect society.

Firestar literally goes five miles south to establish a new Clan after some dead cats beg him to,

and convinces like thirty people, far disconnected from the Clans, to become one.

Despite everything, this group of people doesn't immediately fall apart.

But despite the fact that they seem to be trying to convince us

that warriors are living in their best lives in the best possible system, it's clearly flawed.

First of all, there's five Clans, all separate, all constantly fighting,

not to defend themselves in any normal way, but in theory to fight the other Clans.

But for what? All events that threaten an entire Clan have always been resolved peacefully.

We've never had a severe starvation event,

and all mass sicknesses have either been resolved by being gifted or stealing herbs from another Clan,

It seems like we haven't had a fight that was actually treated as being a normal thing

since we had Sunningrocks in the first series,

and that was fighting over a rock that the RiverClan cats wanted to sit on!

And you'd think that with the danger and conflict between Clans being

non-existent for such long periods of time,

having a death toll of zero for books and books and books,

people wouldn't be so tense and worried all the time about stolen squirrels!

They keep themselves separate and fight over territory and resources for little to no reason,

especially after learning multiple times that the lesson [is] that

they need to stay together and defend themselves from outside threats as a unit.

Not only do they live in a separated, aggressive community, but they believe in this separation.

Every time they try to live as a unit or dissolve a Clan, God intervenes.

Ok, not God, but the warrior cat ancestors,

which I've gone over specifically how little sense they make in the video 'StarClan',

so check that out if you like me talking aimlessly about cat books.

Anyway, they seemingly don't have a higher knowledge of events or the way things should be,

and there's a sense that the Clans are supposed to be the way they are for some reason of fate,

but it's really unclear as to what fate is in the first place or why.

They have prophecies sent from a higher power,

a higher power seemingly even [than] the dead cats,

about what's going to happen, all concerning this one group,

and seemingly because of just how special the warrior Clans are.

Recently, it's been kind of showcased that different cats live in different ways,

and interact with kitty culture and the afterlife in different ways.

The Tribe never counted for this because they basically had the exact same afterlife the Clans had.

The series has recently implied that dead cats just kind of wander aimlessly around as ghosts after they die.

All dead cats that aren't in the clans, anyway.

But this does prove that an afterlife isn't exclusive to the Clans,

so that's like a start, I guess, in the direction of humanizing outside groups and cats.
