    That’s not woke. That’s science fiction.

    I mean if humans could just change gender/sex/appearance as efficiently as Data’s child, there’d be no problem. You’d just do a beep-beeb-boop and that’s it.

    As for nutrek, their problem is not woke. Their problem is stupid.

      May I introduce you to the concept of allegory.

      Their problem is stupid.

      Oh, there’s stupid in abundance in old Trek too.

        Cool of you to provide a microplatform to people who I assume you deeply disagree with. Very generous.

          What are you talking about? It’s an empty search result since the problem with Disco is stupid, not woke.

          Unless what you said isn’t true, of course ;)

            Why do you insist that I agree with what video bloggers like Critical Drinker think?

              As for nutrek, their problem is not woke. Their problem is stupid.

              That sentence can be read as “nuteck’s problem is not woke, nutek’s problem is stupid” or “the critics’ problem is not woke, the critics’ problem is stupid”.

              Considering the body that the sentence was attached to, the latter interpretation is just as valid.

              Language is funny. I apologise for misunderstanding you

      That still subverts God’s will.

        And God willingly kills children. He/she/it can sit on a blade and rotate as far as I’m concerned.

          Yes, god isn’t real.

          Religious people still oppose trans people existing because of religion, not because the operations are not efficient or not safe.

            Tolerance and acceptance for all, including those who believe in God would, to my mind, be the preferred mindset. With some obvious caveats.

/c/TenForward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally “othering” of a group will result in removal/ban.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That’s okay! Just don’t let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. Use spoiler tags in comments, and NSFW checkbox for posts.
This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it’s free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not ‘inspire jamaharon’

~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community’s expectations.

Fun will now commence.
