This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Just look at how many people think Star Trek is conservative

I mean, TOS has Captain Church galavanting around the galaxy with his mixed-race manservant, inserting himself in other races’ business so he can sex up all the foreign women.

Voyager has a woman captain that’s so incompetent she strands her crew on the opposite side of the galaxy.

DS9 and STD have black main characters that are canonically violent criminals.

There is a race of Jewish rat people…

Also the ships are run like military ships (which they are), starfleet is very top-down authoritative. I also wasn't a huge fan of how they treated any local laws like gospel, even when they were about to cost a crew member their life or freedom for stupid reasons.

Hey, the Ferengi are space arabs, thank you very much.
