I recently had a conversation with a relative telling me they could not watch one of the recent Star Treks because they heard it was “woke”.
It’s Star Trek. It is ALWAYS woke. Star Trek (1966) was woke fifty years before “woke” was defined as a thing.
You can’t have Star Trek without “woke” because that’s what Star Trek is.
Star Wars fan here. Star Trek has always been an incredible example in pop culture of progressive values. They’ve supported love in all its forms, diversity, inclusion, and other “woke” values. They’ve created a world where everyone looks out for each other, protects each other, and includes each other. Star Trek is the future I want to live in. So, to all Star Trek fans, I give you a very enthusiastic “live long and prosper”.

It’s not too late to join us.
“Peace, and long life.”
Also, woke isn’t a negative term. The right made it a negative term by applying it to anything they disagree with.
I mean TOS had black people who could work on the bridge and be engineers, not to mention a whole episode on how black/white people are the same as white/black people, what kind of shameless woke debauchery is this smh
It doesn’t get more blatant than a society divided by whether or not the left half of their faces are black or white. And having their conflict resolved by the end.
And so many actors from the original Roots, including both Lavar Burton and The Sisko, were in Star Trek.
Woke has been part of African American Vernacular English since the 1930s.
They’re talking about the modern definition that conservatives only recently became infuriated with.
PREACH
The future Elon wants is not a post-scarcity society. Elon’s future is about artificial scarcity.
Specifically, an artificial scarcity HE profits from
A ferengi without profit is no ferengi at all. (Rule of acquisition #18)
Why is rich people always interpret their favorite show wrong lol are they stupid
He won’t and he can’t. Elon Musk is like Trump on that he lies, a LOT, mostly all the time about just about everything that he claims that he does, did, and will do.
It’s the same posturing as having a mars base by, what was it, 2020? 2022?
He still hasn’t been able to leave orbit, SpaceX still hasn’t been able to replicate what NASA did back in the 60’s, yet here we are acting like they’re performing miracles.
I’m sure that there are smart engineers at SpaceX that want and try better but SpaceX, as it stands, rujs onntax payer money and boy have they wasted a LOT of it to get just done what is considered basic rocket technology. SpaceX will not put a (wo)man on mars within the next decade, or more likely two or three, if ever.
Elon all the time comes with some ridiculous idea and then people jump on it as if it’s amaaaaazing even though highschoolers should be able to identify that his ideas are fundamentally stupid or plain impossible, yet people keep acting as if he’s a genius. HE WAS FIRED FOR INCOMPETENCE BEFORE dammit. That should have been a red flag.
Stop listening to this scammer, and just wait for him to kill twitter, he’s been working hard on piledriving it off a cliff.
This is off topic but
(wo)man
Human is two less characters, and on the phone, way easier to type. Why choose to write it like that?
