Star Trek Discovery

Weirdly, he’s more worried about CBS suing him.

Pretty sure it's the other way around. He can sue them. But I doubt he could get passed all their lawyers.

Probably not. That’s what you get for showing off IP before it’s done, I guess.

Maybe. I'd imagine if he has a decent shot, then some law firm is contacting him right now. A brief search shows CBS Corp with about 1.5 billion in annual free cash flow.. Plenty there for a settlement check.

Whatevs, i am enjoiying it, like i said false flag.

The Klingons are not an allegory for Trump voters. This is probably coming from a person who has seen one episode of the show, and is focusing on one line from that episode to make that connection. Fail.

Most of the space fantasy lefty propaganda to that effect revolves around various kinds of "Earth first" groups. It's usually transparent and fucking dumb. As in.. every single time.. their bigoted straw men Earth firsters make more sense than the premise of the whole show.

BSG reboot was actual SF and it's nationalist standins were fucking awesome.

Star Trek is just usually dumb. It's hard to get past the ham-fisted attempt at indoctrinating people into cultural marxism and globalism. That's all it really is. It's just propaganda for the most part. Most episodes have some programming message to reinforce the globalist worldview that everybody is really the same and anybody who wants to maintain differences and boundaries is a "bigot", etc. If only we all embraced this globalist worldview, we'll have spaceships and replicators, and we can bang hot green chicks with tails too.

I prefer actual science fiction that is more bleak and realistic.

Coincidentally this is when Star Trek is at it's best, when it's bleak and realistic.

Yeah, that's when it got good in Enterprise.

Yup and in Deep Space Nine most of all.

If we started dealing with lots of aliens from different planets, I think we would probably become globalized as on the show and every other sci fi scenario I've seen. We'd redefine our tribe.

How that would actually happen is an interesting question.

Also, I think Star Trek tech might tend to make us more globalized, rather than the idea being that globalization leads to the tech. Let's say nobody needed fossil fuels and everyone could have excellent food and medical care about as easily as they can now listen to a radio. There would be a lot less to fight over, fewer refugees, less concern over refugees, etc.
