There is research out there somewhere that confirms the commenter’s memory. I can’t find it on a whim unfortunately, I’ll post if I can find it. From what I recall from the research (I’m sure I’m butchering it): In the 80s and 90s trans people were a lot more accepted. At some point when certain monied bigots saw the writing on the wall that they were losing the fight of gay and lesbian hate they started a campaign to vilify trans people.
Yes there were always assholes and prejudice, but it’s only in the past 20 years that trans hate became a calling card of demagogues. It really was more accepted in the 90s.
In no way do I want to minimize the awful way trans people are treated, regardless of age. I’m just trying to remember some research I read once.
Totally not a Romulan operative dressed like a Cardassian operative dressed like a Bajoran Maquis who gets absorbed into a Starfleet crew who bails for the Kazon.
I’m super surprised no one on that thread talked about stealing an enemy corvette (lower case C) by way of an oopsy-doodle switcheroo self destruct, slingshotting around the sun back a couple of hundred years, stealing the largest mammals on their home planet in a tank the corvette was never meant to have, because ya know it’s basically an RV with some shotguns duct taped to the top (its name is spray painted on the side). Slingshot back around the sun to the exact millisecond they left.
And they land, perfectly, in water, right next to their home base.
