    Absolutely true but sometimes the entertainment value is worth it.

    Gene was an SJW lol but luckily by DS9 sisko showed there was still hope.

    Mind you if I had a holodeck and replicator it would take me a while to get bored.

    The more things change the more they will stay the same.

    Gene Roddenberry and my opinion is kind of like George Orwell. I know it sounds weird but I respect the dude and I think he's pretty spot-on.

    We Americans have always found it easier to throw money at problems than to actually try to solve them.

    I think star trek was better without him lol but I do respect him.

    That said I saw Genesis 2 (TV pilot) and he owes me 90 minutes of my life lol.

    The collective infiltrated Star Trek. Star Trek motivated far too many people to do great things.

    True, and now that we've released the contents of that Pandora's Box there's no getting them back in. Talk about a third rail that no one wants to touch...

    Of course stop and frisk will reduce the violence as long as its not followed by catch and release

    The collective tried to paint a dark image of the future by corrupting Star Trek and portraying the future as dark.

    That's me!

    Grew up with TNG, DS9 and voyager BUT I did love some of the movies as well.

    Wrath of Khan is badass.

    I find it hard to watch to original series although some of them are amazing (The time travel one with Joan Collins)

    I think the original ideas that Gene Roddenberry no matter how they got manipulated in the future still hold true and you can see glimpses of that idea and that is what's scary.

    Liberals take the future as presented in Star Trek seriously

    A united earth where every person is above average

    It sounds lame but we need a war on poverty and we have to approach it that way. We have to take areas, distributor and help that population of that area, and then rebuild the area. It will require fences and Military. There are alternatives but correcting the root of the problem will prevent much worse scenarios.

    The original Star Trek was all about the individual and every life being important. That is the idea that must be masked and hidden.
