I think part of it is also that a random stranger in a star wars shirt can be anyone. A random stranger in a star trek shirt is a nerd, and therefore more likely to be a cool dude.

The only Star Trek or Star Wars shirt I currently own is black with yellow gold lettering saying "Star Trek" in the Star Wars font. I think it makes some people uncomfortable. My S.O. hates it. I think it's hilarious and I know immediately what type of "nerd" I'm dealing with based on people's reactions to it. I suspect most people don't realize it's a joke or they are worried that I don't know it's a joke.
I have a Space Invaders shirt with warbirds and the Enterprise as your ship at the bottom. Sadly no one has recognized it as trek yet
In a fight, side with the person with the Stargate shirt. They probably have a gun and a claymore.
Or with the person wearing a red shirt, as it’ll… act as a lightning rod of sorts.
And C4, obviously.
Me over here in my Spaceballs shirt.
Spaceballs and Galaxy Quest make you not just trusted, but require instant friendship.
I am your nephew's second cousin's boyfriend's roommate's uncle's brother!
never give up, never surrender!
unfortunately my view of trekkie gear has been clouded by reading the bobiverse novels...
As a Star Wars fan, I heartily concur
Nobody hates a star wars fan like another star wars fan.
They are liking the thing I like the wrong way!
You...may have the best username I've ever seen.
is tumblr a "Star Wars site" now?
If anything, it's still a Doctor Who site, if we're going by "biggest science-fiction franchise", but why would this poll suggest that?
Edit: oh wait because "shared to Star Wars sites". They meant tumblr blogs.
Content not available in my region 😭
Here, I'll copy/paste it.

With Imgur and Reddit having all the silly restrictions, I'm not sure why more people don't upload their images directly to Lemmy?
I really don't understand why a user base predisposed to Lemmy is okay with using a proprietary centralized service that isn't globally accessible. I might understand it if Lemmy didn't support image uploads, but it does.
It's like you're not okay with your text being censored by private corporations and governments, but here, take my images and please make sure some people can't see it.
I get that some probably have muscle memory for certain services but it just seems like the majority here don't even care to unlearn it.
Star Wars shirts are a lot more common for cheap in stores like Walmart, to be bought on a whim. Star Trek shirts have to be specifically sought out online or at conventions or something, and tend to cost more.
That's why I, a trekkie, own more Star Wars shirts than Star Trek ones.
There's a guy at a customer's IT that regularly wears a Rebel Alliance hoodie. I've been wary of him since I first saw him.
