I never realized they were the same person before. I went to Wikipedia and found:

Schultz has also written for Breitbart where he likened liberalism to mental illness, and has similarly suggested that President Barack Obama's administration may intend to force sex reassignment surgery onto him and others.

Sigh.. Turns out he's a raging conservative.

Well that’s disappointing. Reg used to be one of my favorite characters and now…

Is that entire generation broken in the head?

Overblown mostly.

No. Society just changes faster than it ever has. Some keep up, others don't, think of it as a warning showing what happens if you let fear win

The fuck! This makes me sad.

I mean, that sucks, but I've learned over a long time to separate artists, musicians, and actors from their work. It isn't worth fretting about.

I realised they were the same actor as a kid... But this is very disappointing to hear. I'm just not able to separate an artist's work from their politics. In fact, they are closely related, in my mind.

I could never listen to Kanye, for instance, no matter how much his gospel work is recommended to me.

Obligatory chase between the A-Team and a pickup truck filled with militia through the Enterprise hallways

Never in a hundred years would I have picked up on this. Mind-blowing.

Now that's a connection I would not have made without your help. Thanks OP, my evening has been improved.

[–] jawa21@startrek.website 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

You are very welcome! I'm just doing what I would anyway. Surprisingly, the first hobby I've had in about 10 years is making memes here.

[–] VubDapple@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

Glad to know it. These Trek memes have reminded me how much I loved Trek. My wife and I have been watching Strange New Worlds as a result and of course it's good. Thanks to all who post here. Your wholesome influence is felt.

Barclay looks like he could be Millie Bobby Brown's dad

Great Scott!

Isn't that also Lt. Broccoli?

From the same era, I was watching The Highwayman and then suddenly, there was a Tuvok.

[–] nnjethro@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Tuvok is also combing the desert in Spaceballs.
