/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. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

I'm with most people I've seen express a big meh for the show.
That show is only Star Trek by name. It's got its own thing going (more science fantasy than science fiction), which isn't my thing, especially not when you're looking for a Star Trek fix which always had a nack for playing with real science but sticking with the plausibility of it.
I enjoy the other Star Trek show(s) and The Orville much more to get that.
So I watch them.
This constant "they are haters because minorities/women/other representation" is getting tired. It's a couple loudmouth incels that have that sort of criticism and people like you seem to love getting baited in then saying everyone that doesn't enjoy what you enjoy must be with them.
God, I'm so fucking tired of this line. This shit was said about the movies, and TNG, and DS9, and VOY, and ENT and the Kelvin movies. Everytime it's wrong.
You could hide the words 'Star Trek' and 'Enterprise' from TOS and TNG and people would not know they were part of the same franchise.
For real. None of the ships look familiar. The fuckin badge/delta doesn't even look the same. Tech is all kinds of different. Whole new warp scales. New command hierarchy with the previous divisions being changed.
They fucking changed the klingons!
I saw the post this comment was made on, not realizing the context at first, and openly sighed and said "Like they did for the TOS movies and TNG?" Refreshing to see someone else saying that <3
