DS9 is the best of Trek. Anyone who says otherwise is wrong.

God I hated this show. Neelix was annoying. Kess was too by association. The Kazon were never menacing, just a bully that Janeway refused to dispatch because she always made the wrong choice for plot reasons. Usually that’s the XO’s job but, oh wait, Chayote did that too. Even after they turned Seska, into a stupid,…

Wow. This opinion rattles me to my core.

Miracle Day is bad bad bad bad bad bad bad but then also worth watching just for this one moment

Let’s be honest here - Peter Cushing’s performance for the villainous Governor Tarkin was supposed to be stiff, unflinching, and cold, so I’d surmise it’d be easier to have his likeness and performance emulated by a stand-in with a CGI overlay. It looked great in Rogue One, but there was still enough to know that…

Maybe they are waiting for the 40th anniversary, that is less than 6 months away at this point.

Bridge of a rebel ship.

I was ready to give up after the first two episodes but stuck with it.

Kid, I’ve flown from one side of this galaxy to the other, and I’ve seen a lot of strange stuff, but I’ve never seen anything to make me believe that there’s such a thing as a loving, two-parent, home. It’s all a lot of simple tricks and nonsense.

Okay, so, in other words, Rogue One won the gold medal, but these wackos are saying it failed because it didn’t win a platinum medal?

I think this exchange looks civil enough, even if it didn’t land. What I’ve found most difficult to impart when having a conversation like this, which Margaret Cho tried to, is to situate it in the context and understand that individual instances can have it’s reasons—here’s Dr. Strange, here’s a justified shooting by…

I’m Latino and gay... and couldn’t disagree more with your comment.

That person’s reasoning is nonsense. The director made a judgment call. The goal was to be diverse and avoid outdated stereotypes that are offensive today. So they had one character Asian, another black, and another made from male to female and of Celtic origin.

She has connections to a different culture, whatever. The point is Swinton made an honest and well-intentioned attempt to understand this issue and was not rude or offensive about it at all. And Cho shat on her publicly for no good reason.

Can I reply to this sentiment because I am honestly curious about this.

Well, here’s how these conversations feel as a person of color. A white person reaches out to you sometimes - as the only POC that they know. “Hey, can you explain this one thing to me?” Like, I’m Mexican-American, so they might say, for example, “Hey, can you tell me why people think Speedy Gonzales was a negative…

Its this kind of thing that really fucks up the left and progress in general. In this instance, Tilda had a constructive conversation with her peer about how to address an issue, and then Cho takes it and warps it and makes it ugly.

This may blow your mind, but we do have racism in England, too.
