Worried about the Trekverse future

- Paramount when it spreads the cheeks
- That's not a knee...
I think we have a lot more to worry about when our government can elicit bribes in the form of censorship.
But this particular instance won’t affect Trek but capitalism ruins everything, eventually.
- Capitalism has already ruined trek like 4 times.
  
  This right here
- "Elicit," but your word is pretty accurate too!
- The bribe was the settlement payout. The censorship is just a bonus.
- If anything, it could greatly help combat censorism.
  Let's see how brave Colbert is.
- Pull a Mon Mothma and make them want to kill the transmission mid-show.
America, when it voted for its own ruin.
- look buddy do you want the bell riots to happen as prophesized or not
- Voted for freedom, but wants to take away everyone else's freedoms instead
- The Capitol, when its walls fell
  
  Uncle Sam, his foot shattered, his gun smoking.
  Gotta be more metaphorical.
I kinda wish that I still had a Paramount+ subscription to cancel over this, but I think my previous reason for cancelling, that it sucks ass, is still valid too
- But it’s a mountain of entertainment!
  
  It's a mountain of something alright
Maybe now we’ll get Captain Seven of Nine just that now she will rejoin the Borg and the show will explain how good it is to be Borg
- "Hey, the Ferengi might just have the right idea!"

In an ideal future, Paramount goes under, sells the IP to someone who actually cares about it. Can't say it's likely, but one can dream.
Trump, his member small
Aeron, his head shaking in disapproval.
I just watched strange new worlds season 1 and was about to pull the trigger on paramount+. Not going to happen now.
- Yohoho, you could still watch it
Murrow, his heart breaks.
Good night, and good luck.
Stewart and Colbert,
\ together where the rivers join.
As apes together strong,
\ before the reptile house.
I'm not particularly sad that Colbert is canceled as he really grated on me during the pandemic series with the incredible sense of requiring attention, to the point his wife was involved as an audience. The reason for canceling him, however, is definitely a bullshit excuse for bending over to pay the Taco Tax.
Trek is dead. It's legacy will be what it inspires in us.
- legacy
  :(
  We still have Strange New Worlds for now, at least.
- Well said.
Download and hoard what you can. Especially the discovery era. It's not everyone's trek but it IS the most inclusive trek.
Maybe that's why they made the Section 31 movie.
...there are four lights...
Bazminti when he pulled back the veil. The beast at Tanagra.
- Epstine when he pulled back the veil. The beast at Mar a Lago.
  
  Well played! lol!
You're just getting worried now?
The only thing that Star Trek has been good for for the last forty years is slapping a brand on science fiction stories that otherwise wouldn't get funding. Some of those stories were good, but pretty much all of them would've been better without the baggage of the Star Trek universe. As long as science fiction is being made there's no need for Star Trek.
