Careful! Can't remind the "real Star Trek fans" on this platform form what real Star Trek is and is meant to be. They get angry and abusive - - especially when you block them for being angry and abusive! @jondelarroz , for example, has no understanding of Gene Roddenberry's vision.

@RobertPicardo “Star Trek was an attempt to say that humanity will reach maturity and wisdom on the day that it begins not just to tolerate, but to take a special delight in differences in ideas and differences in life forms.” — Gene Roddenberry, creator of “Star Trek”

@esjesjesj It was NOT socialist. It was blind
Raceblind, genderblind, queer blind.
It was about rampant competence overcoming differences.
The academy is just about the differences.
English
Say what you want about the new Star Trek series, this guy is a fucking tourist who only ever liked Star Trek because it had spaceships and completely missed the socialism aspect because he’s never understood a single piece of sci fi

Starfleet Academy actress Gina Yashere reacts to the show's cancellation:
"Obviously, gutted. I thought we made an amazing show. The first season was fantastic. ... And Season 2 is even better. ...
Obviously, the world is still not ready to hear the message of love, peace, infinite diversity, acceptance, the eschewing of violence and senseless wars. We're not ready to hear that message yet, and hopefully one day we will be. And Star Trek will be back stronger than ever. And preferably with the same message and not completely white washed."
Do you agree with her?
English
@stevenconlon @RobertPicardo It's the opposite
This actor chides the fans as if they aren't responsible for his pay. And they reminded him of that when the pay dried up because the fans have the actual power. You're quite wrong, about everything you had to say.
English
@RobertPicardo Remarkable how these fools things the actors are in any way answerable to them, or they have some god-given right to interact with you.

@AhmedBaba_ You're confusing progressive with a virtue they called colorblind.
Star Trek portrayed a world beyond the current biases of the day. Competence and teamwork winning in spite of shocking differences.
Starfleet Academy? Subversive to all of this. Its almost Bizzarro-Trek.
English
Right-wing haters killed something that was objectively amazing. Starfleet Academy had one of the best first seasons of any Trek show. Period.
These anti-woke losers would’ve had a stroke at Riker rizzing up non-binary aliens in TNG. Star Trek has always been progressive.

🚨BREAKING - Academy CANCELLED Sadly #StarfleetAcademy's next season will be its last, with the series now officially announced as cancelled at Paramount+ with Season 2's release date TBA. ⭐️Read Alex Kurtzman's letter to fans here: variety.com/2026/tv/news/s… #StarTrek

@CaptainJackYT Yes there is a need.
When things are going wrong, smashing the means of keeping it on the wrong track is a victory worth celebrating.
It does not hurt the franchise as a whole; it will either stop being tarnished or it will course correct. The long term outcome is better.
English
It is depressing & disappointing seeing people "celebrate" the cancellation of a series. Do people not realise this hurts the franchise as a whole?
Yes, you can not like something... but is there a need to continually punch it down??

@PowerOwn45 @FreeLaw11 I don’t need to indulge, I asked you what has Iran done to you. You said they killed Americans, I asked you when and I also provided a comparison between people killed by Iran vs America. So it’s ok for America to do what they accuse Iran of doing?

We are bombing IRGC targets into the Stone Age and their population cheers each explosion. I hope you understand how rare it is in human history to have a world power focus its might on destroying the infrastructure of evil as its subjects pray for our success .
This is not the norm for human history. Recognize the amazing revolution that is possible. Appreciate what is happening because it absolutely affects you. That China seeks to use Iran as another North Korea-type proxy to project its power globally is not a minor detail. The destruction of the largest exporter of Islamic terror on Earth is a big deal. The elimination of people who seek destruction in the name of Islamic end times prophecy is a big deal.
Let’s freaking hear it for the good guys. Who cares if the coach is a douche.

He's going to be a washed up loser and some young girl boss is going to come to him for training. Then he's going to die in some stupid way and with his dying words tell her "You are the Conan now," in that iconic accent.

As a Japanese person learning English, which one should I write?😵💫

@therealstephen6 @RayVonRichter @learning_yohei American English is the global default because we matter and UK doesn't anymore.
Don't like it?
Shouldn't have collapsed as an empire.
English
@RayVonRichter @learning_yohei As an Englishman, this only confirms why Americans can’t be trusted with the language. There is no such thing as British English. English (from England) is a collection of words from the world based on how those countries pronounced them. The yanks then mispronounce Route 🤣
English
@learning_yohei It's about which language the word came to English from!
If it's a Greek word like those ending in -ize, the British use -ise and Americans use -ize. The brits are wrong on this one.
Tbh just always go the American way if you're not British yourself.

@jessiegender Yeah, to subvert the current enmity of the day and show a bright post-problematic future.
But instead of saying "what if we lived beyond racism, communism, ableism, and war?"
SFA chose its own enemy.
"what if we lived beyond straight people?
The great majority hates this.

“Starfleet was never a box checking exercise.”
Tell that to Gene Roddenberry who went out of his way to make sure a Black woman, a Japanese-American man, a Russian, a disabled man and former enemies like the Klingons were on his bridges.
Skye Maidstone@skyemaidstone
@jessiegender No it was never woke. It was first and foremost Starfleet was a meritocracy. It was never a box checking exercise. Cisco, for example, not even written for a black actor. They just picked the best actor that auditioned. Hence it was actually good.

🇪🇺🇮🇷🇮🇱🇺🇸 Europe just woke up to a nightmare: the Iranian regime now has missiles that can reach every capital in Western Europe.
Iran just fired at Diego Garcia — 2,361 miles from Tehran. They weren’t supposed to have that range.
Surprise: Iran lied.
Tehran to London: 2,750 miles
Tehran to Paris: 2,610 miles
Tehran to Berlin: 2,200 miles
Tehran to Lisbon: 2,485 miles
So tell me again how Iran was 'never a threat' and say thank you to the United States and Israel for destroying Iran’s nuclear program and smashing its ballistic missile industry.

If you’re a muslim - enjoy yourself - I wouldn’t raise a finger to harm you for no reason
But I’m tired of the ridiculous notion being put out there that we have to respect your faith
I’m embarrassed with the fawning displays of some politicians and people pretending it’s charming that you believe in a load of supernatural bullshit written by a bullying psychopath from the mediaeval era
What you believe is absolutely stupid
Again - I wouldn’t harm you - but I absolutely reserve the freedom and the right to say that your belief system is stupid and nasty and causes real world damage

@narindertweets Reframe: how awful must British Muslims comport themselves for a people to go from welcoming to hateful so quickly and severely. You must be a legitimate horrible blight on their lives, or they'd be far too polite for this kind of thing.

The mayor of London posted about having a coffee and he got views of almost 10million and mostly hate.
This isn't normal behaviour.
This is proof (along with the meltdown over a bunch of ppl praying in a square) of just how deeply radicalised the right-wing have become.
