Star Trek fans have held the national stereotype of being way too rabid about things for decades but they’re probably the nicest fan base in all of science fiction and the one least likely to have a large faction of them absolutely lose it over a torpedo being fired by a woman or dumb shit like that

Your rhetoric is out of date, Strange New Worlds is great and IMO Lower Decks is too, even as someone that hates DISCO and Picard.

Its not out of date, I simply stopped caring and watching. Star trek sucked since after enterprise. I've watched the horrendous movies, I've watched the cringe shows they showed down our throats all the way to Picard which managed to ruin TNG for me. Can't even watch that anymore without remembering how badly they broke everything.

So I'm done

Strange New Worlds and Lower Decks both started airing after Picard.

[-] phoenixz@lemmy.ca 1 points 5 months ago

I know. Don't care anymore. All the high praises you're giving now were also given for every season of Picard.. okay okay! Season one, which we praised into the heavens, was a dud, but this one, season 2, this one will be IT! Aaaaannddd it sucked donkey balls.. but okay, season 3 then, will be the best evah!

....

Same crap with Discovery before that

Same crap with the god godawful movies

I'm done

/c/TenFoward: 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. 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.
