/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.

I think the problem is corruption. You can essentially buy a small country as the leadership is corrupt.

[–] NeptuneOrbit 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Right. But isn't it corruption to buy up all the water/food/shelter?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

No

The problem is when the public officials are making money from the large company who came it for cheap supplies or labor

Ooooo ook you are a libertarian?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Conservative

This wasn't a political statement. Its bad when public officials are getting bribed.

[–] NeptuneOrbit 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

OK but buying up all the water is corruption by another name.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

They can't buy all the water if the government won't let them.
