New Star Trek community
I am concerned about ten forward seemingly deciding to do a war on fascism. This community is basically insurance for those who just want pure Star Trek shitposting.
So ... you're comfortable with fascists in your bar?
Congrats! You've got a fascist bar!
I mean, you do you and all that shit, but you'll find that over time all you're going to get is fascists as normal people bail out on you.
I am concerned about ten forward seemingly deciding to do a war on fascism.
Can you explain the concerning thing?
The fact that we can't have nice things. I don't come to star trek communities for political discussions. I want Tuvix memes and other fun stuff.
The political rhetoric is just depressing and doesn't do anything meaningful.
Your attitude helped the Fanta Menace to win, so you don't get any sympathy for me.
You sound like those idiots complaining that "NuTrek is too woke".
Hear, hear!
Any examples of this war?
Two people (including OP) have been banned from Ten Forward for spreading fascistic talking points or for downplaying fascism. I said that anyone who openly supports Trump in Ten Forward will be permanently banned as fascists are not welcome. Star Trek has made it abundantly clear that it's aggressively anti-fascist with two major fan favorite characters being people who would just straight up kill fascists for fun. I simply made it known that the community will align itself with the show and fascists are not welcome.
No bigotry or fascism. This is a Star Trek community. Hating someone off of their race, culture, creed, sexuality, or identity is not remotely acceptable, neither is supporting people who actively want to kill those groups. Mistakes can happen but do your best to respect others.
So quick thing. Our community has a rule of ‘No bigotry’. Honestly? I think that if you voted for Trump you basically violated that rule. So lemme be clear. If you voted for Trump, voted for Third Party, or didn’t vote at all and you say as much on this community, I will permanently ban you. Yes, I am including Third Party in that. Jill Stein is an open asset of the Russians. More over, a Third Party candidate was never going to win. Your position of a protest vote did nothing other than fuck over everyone else in the country. You are just as bad as the people who did not vote and worse than the people who voted for Trump. At least they were honest about what they were doing. You deluded yourself into believing that a completely different election was happening and actively enabled fascism. You do not get to call yourself a Star Trek fan when your actions have shown that you go against absolutely everything that it stands for and represents.
Also some of the mods of that community have gotten in trouble elsewhere for there "quests" against fascism. I don't care what you believe but forcing a large community to hyperfocus on some silly agenda is not a good look for moderators.
as if there arn't enough of them already
