  • 35 Years Ago, Star Trek Retroactively Created New Canon, And No One Noticed

    Jump

  • I would say that a war like that suddenly coming up isn't that insane. In the real world I think about Desert Storm.

    Short armed conflict, lots of Americans and Iraqis died. Did it to fight a dictatorship. But 10 years later by it wasn't a thing that just came up every day on the news. (Iraq 2 notwithstanding that suddenly made it all the more relevant). But my point is that there was a war in the 90s that affected a ton of people but after a while, it wasn't constantly in everyone's mind.

    Is it a big change, absolutely. But so were the Klingons makeup in The Motion Picture, and the Klingons being good guys.

    But if suddenly no women were allowed in starfleet or slavery was cool as long as its XYZ race, that would be a continuity change that affects the world not in a retconny way but in a way that fundamentally changes the kind of show that it is.

    If you want to make a sci fi show where Earth has been taken over by sexist slavers to tell a very compelling and gritty story about human nature, maybe dont make a Star Trek show.

  • I guess I'm not sure what the title is getting at.

    The article is about the first episode featuring the Cardassians and how they mention the Cardassian war that took place directly before the series currently in progress.

    Honestly the point of the article seems to be that changing canon is secondary to telling a really compelling sci-fi allegory story.

    A great way to not have to worry a lot about canon is to move far into the future or to go farther into the past.

    I don't really care if they introduce a new thing that wasn't mentioned before, I get more grouchy about them introducing stuff that directly contradicts really important stuff established in the show. Like "turns out the paradise on earth was bullshit all along" for instance.

  • YSK what legal rights you have in encounters with ICE

    Jump

  • Remember kids, murder is against the law. So, if ICE tries to murder you like they did those 2 other people just say, "thats illegal".

    They will have no choice but to stop murdering you.
