A decent chunk of his argument is simply to push back against this...loudly.
Finally, it is time to start calling out a lot of provincial grievance for the rank bullshit it often is.
Thanks - I find the "reformed" Senate fascinating.
Perhaps "urban" is the wrong word, but it ain't exactly Cestus III, y'know?
As someone who's not familiar with the LA area, it blows my mind that those things are basically in the middle of an urban area.
Thank you for sharing - we appreciate any and all first-person accounts of events!
I have to admit, when they first announced the Fan Fest Nights, my initial reaction was that it sounded like it would be kind of cheap and disappointing. But it seems like they did a really nice job of the Trek event, along with some of the others that I've read about (especially Back to the Future).
So is the protowarp merely a more powerful version of the warp drive?
That was my takeaway - it's got the power to propel the ship (much) higher into the warp 9.9XXXXX range.
In fairness, they brought him back twice in season two - once as a dancing Klingon, no less.
I think of Trek Central as the "scrappy outsider" of Star Trek new sites, but I do consider them to be a reliable source, and that trademark application is certainly authentic.
We'll see if anything comes of it.
I was never any good with music theory, but I knew someone would appreciate it.
Clothes very similar to the stereotypical “african clothes”
Could you expand on that, ideally with pictures of what you're talking about? L'Rell's outfit, for example, hardly screams "Africa" to me.
they got the actor of Tyler as a way to have an “exotic” accent
"Exotic" meaning what? Which race is he mimicking?
voodoo religious rituals
I know very little about the Voodoo religion, so could you please tell me which of its rituals were incorporated into the show?
they commit terrorist suicide attacks as well
And this is a known racist trope about Africans (since you seem to have settled on African, or at least "Black" stereotypes)? Because otherwise, you seem to be saying it's a racist depiction of...a bunch of different races, based on the fact that the characters do things that humans also do sometimes.
Or to make it more obvious, they are shown like “exotic brown people who hate the white ones
"Brown"
That would be a question for Bryan Fuller. He's recently started to talk about this stuff, so maybe we'll get an answer some day.
One thing I do think someone said along the line is that they wanted to establish why the Klingons and Starfleet hate each other so much in TOS.
I've said it before, and I'll say it again: if they ever do an oral history of the development of that series, it will be a juicy read.
