rewatching DS9 and it's really just reminding me of why I fucking despise pretty much all Kurtzmann era Trek with the exception of SNW.
DS9: "Military junta BAD! Section 31 BAD! Don't let fucking paranoia drive you to stupidity! Look at the precipice and say "NO MORE". Good people may do bad things, but they feel fucking bad about it, no matter how noble the end goal! Bad people do good things, take your perspectives into consideration and fucking look at something bigger than yourself!
Kurtzmann, nodding along, taking notes "I see, I see, now, which end of the mincing machine do the puppies go into again?"
Him cherry picking ISB's work is like that woman who made monkey jesus.
