/c/TenForward: 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.
Use spoiler tags in comments, and NSFW checkbox for posts.
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. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

Sisko was only fine with those deaths because the aliens that died either were green, or had green blood. The Commander's a racist, and I hear a human supremacist. Name one green alien he has on staff. You can't.
So I’ve realized that Deep Space Nine features the fewest Vulcans of any classic Star Trek series.
And when Vulcans do appear on Deep Space Nine, they are usually maligned (Maquis agents, distant Admirals, opposing baseball teams).
Romulans actually feature more prominently, and there was almost a Romulan series regular (the Romulan adviser who allowed the Defiant to have a cloak). But they ended up becoming cannon-fodder aliens during times of war, even when they allied with the Federation.
I don’t think Sisko hated “green-blooded hobgoblins,” I think the writers did.
He did poison a planet specifically against humans so he could get ~~Jean Valjean~~... I mean Cmd Eddington
