Because it's usually right wingers using it as a derogatory term against the socially conscious. Maybe not in this case.

Same! I've always considered time travel to be a "plot cheat code" because it allows writers to do whatever they want. This works out ok sometimes but other times it just makes for bizarre stories that defy belief. This would definitely be the latter kind!

I enjoy ST largely because it's believable (in a broad strokes ignore the details kind of way) so far-fetched stories don't do it for me as much. Time travel is firmly in "never gonna happen" territory.

Please stop insulting Dukat.

I enjoyed the episode but agree with most of your points, especially the flashbacks. If the events had happened earlier in the episode they might have been understandable but they had just happened! Spock's little joke was pretty out of character as well.

I thought trans people were a good fit for the metaphor, given the body alterations that can be involved.

I really like this Spock, don't get me wrong, but I'm finding his increasing "humanness" a bit distracting. I mean, making a joke in court? That was a bit far-fetched.

Absolutely. People shouldn't feel they might catch something if they go to a hospital. Kinda defeats the purpose.

It looks great but I question its accuracy. The night before it cleared up in Ottawa it was predicted to be very bad here, but never was. And then the cloud supposedly moved down to Mississauga the next morning but I talked to people there and it was clear.
