Mine is that Discovery should have been a series taking place in the Picard era.

    My hot take is that there is no way in hell an entire planet of people could be armed with planet destroying weapons and not immediately go around blowing up other planets.

    You’re telling me that there’s never been a single rogue captain in Starfleets history that has just not started unloading photon torpedoes and plasma blasters and all kinds of crazy shit on a random planet just to see what the fuck happened?

    Think of the mining potentials if nothing else? You can just sift through the wreckage rather than digging.

    Wake up sheeple

      Those impulses were edited out in the eugenics era. I believe we can’t survive future weapons without it.

      We have ships with city destroying weapons now. Rouge captains and crews don’t go around turning cities or even islands into glass just because.
