Aldnoah.Zero 2014

The premise is quite awful and nonsensical:
-4 decades of separation equates to a different 'species'?
-The reason the Hyper gate and the Moon was destroyed was because of the 'fierce' fighting that took place there, so 15 years ago Earth's military was able to fight back yet now they are 'insects'?

Combined with it's unoriginality and fairly stock characters -I couldn't make it past episode 2.

yep you didnt get the story...
there is no difference between races, like there is no difference between aryan and jew people. martians think they are better and more worthy because they are a superior race.
and martians found new technology in the meantime and developed faster, how hard was to get that one? they won the fight on the moon so they controlled the space not letting earthlings travel and discover new things from space. if you want a "action without brains, pew pew" this isnt for you.

Action without brains? lol -this is; at best a slightly different flavour of the generic trope riddled genre that is 'Mecha anime'.
To use your example: The Christian/European animosity towards Jews goes back centuries, even longer if you count ancient civilizations like Rome.
Hittler and co. didn't just wake up one day and decide that he hated Jews.
40 years is a ridiculous span of time for such a radical and extremist ideology to become so ingrained in a population.
For people who were born and spent most of their lives on Earth -to then suddenly believe that "Humans" from Earth are inherently inferior is quite insane, like mental illness insane.

Also 'The Martians' in orbit of Earth are cut off from Mars -which means; for the most their tech should be similar to what they used 15 years ago to fight Earth.
15 years ago Earth was able to actually fight against the Martian collective but now after presumably tons of research and planning -they are this useless against the Martians remnants that were cut off and left behind?

Ironically it appears that you didn't understand the story...lol
