And yet things are totally worse. But in other ways they couldn’t have imagined. Even for the homeless. Sanctuary Districts? They won’t even allow them to voluntarily do that with tent cities at this point.

Who would have thought Sanctuary Districts would have been a better alternative?

When I watched those episodes for the first time, my reaction was: “So the Silicon Valley billionaire would just let the poor people use his network to get their messages out?”

The rich were portrayed as apathetic, instead of active participants.

That’s in a timeline where things get really bad and humans finally decide to get their shit together, not ours.

I mean I’m not sad about things not getting really bad. I’ll take a slow simmer of kinda bad over a full boilover any day.

I really think Star Trek fans should just get organized and do our own protests. The unhoused problem is only getting worse everywhere and nobody in power is doing a damn thing to actually help any of those poor people.

Create post

/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. 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.
