This isn't something that gets solved by just hoping people's individual lifestyle choices fix it. Production has to be scaled back, and market economics is clearly not capable of that sort of conscious decision making.

This is an english meme about the one event in Chinese history that gets repeated in english-speaking spaces over and over and over again. This isn't attempting to make an argument to a Chinese audience. Why shouldn't we draw comparisons to similar things in the US? What else would we talk about? Just a whole thread of "yeah, that's bad" again and again? For every time this gets trotted out?

Pretty sure polar ice caps are still shrinking.

Sorry the consequences of industry aren't snappy enough for your short attention span, I guess?

The holovids always skip over Voyager's many, many detours to extract resources and manufacture replacement torpedoes. Between this, negotiating with the Borg, and massively altering the timeline, Captain Janeway is as much a popular topic of conversation outside the federation as she is within.

It was organized over twitter, "big players" were not involved. Hell, Trump himself was only interested in showing up because he likes being on stage in front of people. There was no plan, no goal. It was the political equivalent of an angry sports riot.

I wanna see Curzon Dax in SNW. Pretty sure the timetables match up there, given he negotiates the Khitomer accords.

Yeah, if anything the TOS ships are more realistic in regard to their interfaces. In an emergency, when you may not have lights or gravity or whatever, buttons and knobs come with certainty. Flat, featureless touchscreens? Not so much.

isn't political violence our main export?

i hate that smooth-rectangle has become the standard

stop it with the extra cameras and the beveled edges, i'd give up half my screen space for some real goddamn buttons

i feel like the answer to what is and isn't canon can be summed up with;

Why do the klingons look different?

They always looked like that, you just didn't notice before.

Canon has always been squishy. The Eugenics Wars takes place in the nineteen-nineties... oh but didn't Voyager's crew visit our nineties? Plus, DISCO had that Elon Musk name drop.

...so the timeline floats up as the present day does. Canon is just a vague sense of the things everyone agrees on.

If i were gonna write the Borg going forward, I'd have the queens be a failed experiment to elevate one drone to the role of tactician specifically to deal with the Federation. It didn't work, so they don't do it anymore.

huh, reminds me of Hillary's campaign aiding Trump during the republican primaries
