update even got dragged by george takei
At this point media illiteracy is a requirement to be a Republican.

“ Star Wars is bad now”
I mean yah, the vertical integration, means tested everything, nostalgia bating and assembly line techniques that Disney does sure do ruin otherwise fine properties.
“No, I don’t mind that, that’s just good business. I just hate the gay people who kissed in the background”
Oh, OH ok, you’re just an idiot…
She’s so much of a Trekkie she did the LL&P sign backwards
I was gonna say, “what kind of fucked up Shekhinah is that???” That hands gesture symbolizes the Hebrew letter “shin,” which is the first letter of the feminine name of God in Judaism. The female form of God is believed by Orthodox Jews to be so powerful that seeing her can blind a human, therefore they cover their eyes when the rabbi does this symbol while they invoke the dwelling of God, or something like that. I’m quite fuzzy on this part.
So, this moron is calling Star Wars, the bra strangulation movie, too woke and is trying to troll Star Wars fans with a Star Trek symbol that she got wrong? The incredible irony of her being a bigot unfit for Leonard Nimoy’s Shekhina project while she’s blasting her own face with some Jewish mysticism girl power is beyond hilarious.
I would have thought they’d be more of a Starship Troopers fan, since the satire would fly over the fash’s head.
TBF Heinlein didn’t mean for it to be a satire, Verhoeven just turned it into one.
Attempts and fails at Vulcan greeting.
I know she’s smarter, better, and stronger than I and would find a way to help explain and educate this woman on how she’s pissing into the wind wrong…
But I can’t help but imagine Janeway just kicking the shit out of that foxbot on principle and for the security of the federations reputation.
Janeway would straight up murder them. She’s done worse for less reason.
Everyone thinks she killed Tuvix to save her ship or crew or some utilitarian bullshit, but the reality?
She knew. She knew this was her chance to kill a man and call it duty.
Nah, it was pragmatic. She was losing crew that couldn’t really be replaced. And she was on the verge of losing a very important crew member, Tuvok.
She wasn’t about to let that happen.
If Tuvix retained Tuvoks skills, keeping Tuvix would mean not having to deal with Neelix, however. Im sure she considered that as a reason to keep Tuvix, before her bloodlust won out.
Nah, there was the clear risk that Tuvix exhibited the worst traits of Tuvok and Neelix. That would be a total nightmare. Restoring the original was the proper choice. At some point an opportunity to get rid of Neelix could appear, and you could retain the original Tuvok without loss.
Just say you don’t watch sci fi movies. Sheesh so desperate to fit in. Why does everyone want to be a nerd now? Didn’t boomers invent beating up nerds???
Nerds became cool once they realized they could exploit their autism at tech companies
Many tech companies are led by neurodiverse people, too. Zuckerberg is definitely not just the typical billionaire sociopath.
I’ve seen the anti-woke Star Trek.
I had to stop when they invaded space Iraq due to WMD’s.
Yeah but the xindi actually did have planet killing weapons so
Does Starfleet not? Besides literally all of their ships. Because every ship that can go to Warp Speed is a planet killer based on the information in the show.
Have you seen human history?
Untrustworthy savages, the lot of them. A rogue species just temporarily acting reasonable for some nefarious plan no doubt.
Now, before you explain that “No, the Xindi really did have it coming,” I have not watched Enterprise, and I never will.
The xindi were lied to by a faction of the temporal cold war that was trying to keep them from joining the federation in the future. From there perspective they thought humans were trying to genocide them so they were defending themselves. I actually enjoyed Enterprise even if it’s not close to my favorite trek series
I’m not talking about Enterprise.
Then what are you talking about?
Gene Roddenberry’s Andromeda
Neat, I’ve never heard of that show before
The star of the show is definitely anti woke
The cognitive dissonance is strong with this one
She’s a cylon sympathizer
I maintain everyone on Battlestar Galactica was a Cylon.
That or Cylonism can spread as an STD.
This solves all plotholes, no further questions.
Steve’s videos helped me get into star trek, he makes really good essay content.
I guess if you just watched Enterprise you might assume trek isn’t woke
hey! ENT was awesome
Recently watched a couple of episodes and it definitely felt old-fashioned in a way that didn’t feel appropriate for show about an utopian society from the early 2000s. At least the original series was progressive for the 1960s, which doesn’t necessarily feel “woke” from a 2020s rightwinger perspective.
Or republicans just root for the enemies, that’s always a possibility.
The oligarchs and billionaires who own the corporate mainstream media and both political parties are the ones stirring up WOKE issues. Why? So you all hate each other and take your eye off the billionaire thieves stealing everything. This is why we can’t have nice things.
