/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. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.

~ 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'

~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.

Fun will now commence.

This is not the only place I could make an RvB reference with DS9 - I reckon there's a "you ever wonder why we're here" with Starfleet's presence on DS9 ๐Ÿค”

He doesn't understand gender binaries

He probably does, he uses he/him pronouns, but his race simply doesn't have gender, being amorphous blobs and all

Liberal myth that pigs exist for the sake of justice

He was placed in his role by a literal actual fascist general, and only stayed there because his sense of actual justice wouldn't let him let someone else take the role and implement the Cardassian "justice" ("line up 5 random Bajorans and execute them"). This is established very early on and very explicitly. I don't like the police institution either, but Odo is not the right tree to be barking up, and definitely not the right way to say "the Star Trek future is creepy" (He doesn't even work for Starfleet, they just kept him on because he was well-liked in the DS9 community)
