    Babylon 5 tried diplomacy for the first couple seasons, but once the humans started fighting ourselves diplomacy kinda went out the window.

      Also it was the climax of a multi season story by that point, it’s the part where they ran out of diplomatic options so I think it still works as an example.

        Yeah, and in the first season, Delenne called humans “community builders” that were the only species that could even imagine, much less build an outpost that would function as the melting crucible of all the species to forge stronger and more resilient friendships that would last through us tearing ourselves apart.
