I hate Janeway, and the main reason is because whether or not she has any respect for the Prime Directive depends solely on “Will obeying this get my crew back home?”

If no, then yes If yes, then no

So you’re saying, her prime directive was getting her crew home safely?

I love Janeway to death, it’s just that she was put into the unenviable position of making tough choices for the needs of the many… or the brew.

No, her prime directive was keeping her crew stranded and actively finding any pretentious moral excuse to pretend to justify it

If the show was realistic, she would have died very early on during a mutiny… and Chakotay wouldn’t be one of the most shocking racist characters I’ve seen in an 90’s/2000’s era TV show

Sorry, can you elaborate on the first paragraph? It’s been many years since I watched voyager.

Janeway makes the most decisions I disagree with out of any captain. Like for example,

Tap for spoiler

trying in futility to save that last member of species 8472 from the Hirogen at the expense of her entire crew’s lives. That fucker wanted you all dead and has only given up because it was hunted so long, why did she risk so many lives to save it?

She did have some HFY moments though, like when those phased aliens were experimenting in the crew so she ordered the ship through The middle of those weird stars and killed them all.

Oh you want to make me crazy? I’ll show you motherfuckers crazy. Imma channel my inner John Creighton you bastards.

/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Hating someone off of their race, culture, creed, sexuality, or identity is not remotely acceptable, neither is supporting people who actively want to kill those groups. Mistakes can happen but do your best to respect others.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That’s okay! Just don’t let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it’s free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not ‘inspire jamaharon’ and fuck over our artist friends.

Fun will now commence.
