I watched the entire video, but I timestamped the link to where I believe it matters most for any comrade that ever liked Star Trek, liberal idealistic and quasi-militaristic flaws and all, and would like to see a succinct and thorough summary of what they might have already felt, may have already inductively collected for themselves, but got it drowned out by “well the TNG gang got together by the end of Picard Season 3 so just enjoy it like a popcorn movie, 4/5” or even worse brainworms like “section 31 is based and it’s just cold hard reality that such an agency would have to exist for the Federation to exist, just like in based Deep Space 9 which was totally about wars and genocidal biowarfare plots and how cool and necessary they are.”
The Trek fandom site in the Lemmyverse is loaded with insufferable liberal/libertarian 
and a fair amount of Thermian Arguments that justify anything that was presented on screen as not only good, but necessary if they were done by protagonist characters, and not just the flaws, weaknesses, and (for lack of a better term) sins of characters that weren’t intended to be infallible, let alone blindly emulated, no matter how cool it was when Sisko punched Q or whatever.
TL;DR: I hope comrades find value in this concluding section of a much larger video, or maybe even watch the whole thing, which I also think is worthwhile. Also, I fucking despise Section 31 apologists because they make the Lemmyverse’s Trek site unbearable for me. If Kurtzman gets his way (especially with that Section 31 series he keeps jerking off about), Trek will become increasingly murderfucky gory edgy black ops obsessed bootlicking schlock with a vague and redundant nostalgia flavor.
Hehe, reluctant agreement, my favorite kind of agreement
But yeah no i agree, it’s just lib shit if it’s used to handwave away “we did a genocide” or whatever. Nutrek sucks, it’s just action schlock and it’s not even good it’s all shaky cam action schlock
If Kurtzman gets his precious Section 31 show finally off the ground, it’ll make those bloodthirsty wine liberals even more insufferable in Trek fan communities. Some say I complained too much about Gambo, and well, I am pretty sure I’d hate any sort of successful enough Section 31 prestige tv shit enough to eclipse even that if it got prominent enough in pop culture somehow.
It is possible to complain to much about gambo, but only in so far as there are much more interesting things to complain about where there is more productive discussion to be had.
I am truly grateful that the Gambo juggernaut is slowing down and coming apart. Maybe it’s just the change of scenery and people around me, but not once this year did I have to hear about the unmissable must-see moments like DAE LE RED WEDDING and DAE LE SHAME in whatever might be the recent murderfucking treats.
I know almost nothing about “House of the Dragon” except it had a shitty unsatisfying ending, which doesn’t surprise me whatsoever.
I’ve heard house of dragon is okay - much less awooga and sexual violence for it’s own sake, more dragons.
That’s nice, I suppose. Still sounded like misery for misery’s sake from what I heard about the first episodes.
How about that ending, then? Did Lucy keep the football in place for the kick?
Oh I have not watched it and never will, I just heard it’s less grotesque.
I am glad for that I suppose, but as I’ve said before, diluted sewage is still sewage to me.
Good news and bad: the Section 31 show has been cancelled, but it’s gonna be a movie instead now
That means less overall cultural exposure, but possibly a heavier impact if it has any success at all.
I’m sure if there’s plenty of “adults in the room making the hard decisions and getting shit done” the hogs will oink and gobble it up, especially if it’s loaded with Gambo shit like sensationalized SV and the like. Corpo media will do the old “this isn’t your father’s boring old Trek! It’s mature now and by mature we mean murderfucking and quips from smirking sociopaths between SV sessions!” that boosted Gambo into the stratosphere if the movie is successful enough.
Space Hitler is gonna be the mc
Oh yeah the head douche of that terrible Lemmyverse argument I got into was really, really into the idea of the Terran Empire’s time traveling and universe hopping Mary Sue (with Section 31 associations too because OF FUCKING COURSE) made friends on the Discovery and therefore felt kind of bad for what she did and would “reform” the Terran Empire somehow, pinkie promise.
I said that was a load of bullshit and even if she meant it, it wasn’t even so much as pulling out the knife as Malcolm X once put it; the atrocities are already done, claiming to feel bad about it doesn’t undo the damage.
I got an astonishingly basic smug P R E S T I G E T V enjoying liberal barrage of “heh, you are babybrained and clearly dont understand what the adults in the room are doing”
that ended, of course, in a last word game.
Oh yeah I saw that thread, fucking libs gonna fucking lib.
I wanted to like the Lemmyverse Trek site, but that wasn’t the first time a bunch of smug neoliberal
was exchanged there, without me saying a damn word, where they gladhand each other about “to each his own” as if ethics in the Trek setting are just sports teams or like Star Wars lightsaber colors and costume choices. No surprise, Team Evil is the most popular and they want to feel like smart cool insiders, like their edgelord counterparts (or themselves) in Star Trek Online that fill their characters’ biography spaces with “BLACK OPS TOP SECRET CLASSIFIED RUMOR HAS IT EXILED SHADOW FORCE NEED TO KNOW BASIS” 
while commanding the ISS Ayn Rand.
Ueeeueueueugh star wars light saber colors! It’s literally just so you can tell who is one which team, but apparently in the shows now you sword changes colors if you wangst hard enough because something about inner turmoil or some shit. The idea that the dark side is a real verb, it’s using you magic powers to take things and hurt people and not an abstraction or a mood, is too much for some!
I’ve got one in another thread trying to tell me that Billups isn’t ace right now it’s a silly place
I look forward to parsing through your many emojis if this terrible fate you’ve predicted does come to pass
I’ll probably be like
It’s become iconic, ngl
