I love that Kirk had to die saving his own worst enemy so that the Federation could exist.
and subverting the "hero goes back in time to kill a mass murderer" trope, with "hero goes back in time to save a mass murderer"
I actually thought the plot of Picard series 2 was going to be something like this, Picard has to ensure WW3 happens, dooming millions to save his future. Instead we got, well what we got.
Seems to me that they are merging the eugenics wars and wwiii together in canon. Maybe the eugenics wars are the catalyst for wwiii or something like that?
Makes sense to be fair. The Augments take advantage of the War to seize a portion of the planet in all the confusion.
