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.
I’d like to know more about this. I never heard about this before.
Did these bazingas even watch TNG or did they just browse Memory Alpha? The show was already horny at times, sometimes to the point of meme value.
He’s the direct reason why there’s some silly dune buggy scene in Nemesis. That was all him.
The TNG movies convinced me that Stewart no longer understood his most famous character. The series Picard convinced me that he never did in the first place.
At first I thought that was some weird late life shift, but then I realized he always has been that way.
There was a series of blogposts/reviews from when Picard came out where the author more or less convinced me that Stewart did understand character - he also didn’t like him. The reason why Picard is filled with these unearned emotional moments is precisely because Captain Picard is a stoic character.
There was a lot of talk on that lawsuit but sadly it was taken by the anti-woke rw YT grifters. but here its his blog. Anas’s personal life was quite sad actualy, but the blog is still online and the case story is absurd. The game was created years before Discovery and the theory is when Brian Fuller left the Kurtzman team was crunching for time so they just copied whatever.
What makes it a slam dunk is not each one taken individualy obviously, but how everything just happens to be a coincidence.
The trial ended up being about the Tardigrades and that was what the CBS wanted to focus on because it was the only technicality.
Its funny because if you make a science fiction show with a French Captain, an Android, a POC engineer on a ship that has a particular disc shape section where they all wear red blue and yellow uniforms, where they work for an “alliance” of planets and end up fighting a sort of cybernetic enemy you know Trek lawyers would be on your ass.
I already hated Kurtzman and I now hate Kurtzman just a little bit more, the smirking chin rubbing hack.
