"Sure, The Borg have been a bit of a problem. Their tendency toward mass assimilation and the stripping of individuality and personal freedom doesn’t exactly jibe with our idea of what makes a great leader. But let’s be honest. Kathryn Janeway hasn’t been perfect."

I just want to see Janeway's plan. She has no plan!

[–] Corgana@startrek.website 19 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Personally I just like the Borg's plan for the economy. Sure, post-scarcity is nice, but what about post post?

[–] The_Che_Banana@beehaw.org 1 points 1 week ago

As long as the Borg get rid of "those people", we're good!

Suggesting that billionaires need to be coerced to support Trump via threats of retribution -- as opposed to supporting him willingly because sociopaths are inherently inclined towards fascism -- is giving them a lot of credit they don't deserve.

My forgiveness... Not much push needed for fascists to support Cappies

Also, chart is basically base and superstructure...

Remember when Kathryn Janeway promised to keep giving weapons to the Cardassians so they could continue their genocide against the Bajoran people?

[–] buckykat@hexbear.net 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

That was Sisko, in "For the Cause"

[–] thefartographer@lemm.ee 0 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Remember when Obama failed to stop hurricane Katrina?

I'm assuming their statement was meant to parallel this idiot thing that people started saying during Trump's presidency

The pronouns are right there in his name. And he was obviously referring to Kamala's promise to keep arming the genocidal zionist entity so it can continue its genocide against the Palestinian people.

A drug addict, a multiple time-crime felon, always transporting illegal aliens across quadrants, etc vs a proven communist leader of billions of equal voices living with basically 0 crime rate or like even anxiety?

Then again, I really don't want any tuvix monstrosities running around our planets, so that is a concern I know Janeway can deliver on.

Nanoprobes are genocide. Species 8472. Make the Quadrant Great Again.

Kamala Harris is firmly committed to the extermination of the Palestinian people, she's not Captain Janeway. This is asinine.

[–] halm@leminal.space 11 points 1 week ago

So what you're saying is, vote Borg. Gotcha 👍

[–] Odinkirk@lemmygrad.ml 11 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Are you kidding? That's very on brand for Janeway.
