/c/TenForward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. Use spoiler tags in comments, and NSFW checkbox for posts.
This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'

~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.

Fun will now commence.

The poor history channel. They aren't gonna make it.

[–] CubitOom@infosec.pub 3 points 15 hours ago

They just need to use AI to change the voice over explaining how glorious Hitler was. And then say how terrible it was when Antifa invaded.

United Federation Broadcasting Company

[–] CubitOom@infosec.pub 44 points 1 day ago (1 children)

United Federation Broadcasting Corporation.

Not to be confused with the Up yourself Furphy Broadcasting Corporation, which is Australian

“…And even though Morn goes on a 10 minute rant every time he hears us say it, this is UFBC.”

[–] fluxion@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago

United Federation of Backwater Countries?

[–] DmMacniel@feddit.org 8 points 1 day ago

Probably United Federation Broad Cast.

We should start a change.space petition!

[–] CubitOom@infosec.pub 25 points 1 day ago (2 children)

The Sheliak have declined your right to petition, citing the treaty.

[–] DmMacniel@feddit.org 22 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Well then...

I really don't want to do that but...

I invoke my right of arbitration.

[–] fartographer@lemmy.world 14 points 1 day ago

I invite my right to be arbitrary! And contrary!

I invoke my right of arbitration.

I know you are, but what am I?

Looks like it's time to pull a Sisko. Where's the closest Sheliak controlled planet?

Are we really at the stage of not being able to hate Nazis? Tell me it's just a fever dream.

[–] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 23 points 1 day ago

We're at the stage where Nazis (who don't call themselves Nazis) run the US government and are cracking down on anyone who disagrees with them. It's your patriotic duty to hate them.

Make nazis dead again

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 11 points 1 day ago

No no it’s all good. Hate away.

Dammit, who let the Terran Empire into this universe?

[–] Shipgirlboy@sh.itjust.works 10 points 1 day ago (1 children)

What are you talking about?! It has always been here.

[–] radix@lemmy.world 10 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Are...are we the mirror universe? I don't know why this should be so shocking to me given, well, everything, but I'm going to need a moment to digest this.

[–] verity_kindle@sh.itjust.works 2 points 16 hours ago

While you're taking a moment, you should be finding your issue Gaudy Dagger.

[–] SippyCup@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 day ago

Um.

Me. That was me.

Sorry guys. I was making a transporter meme and ope, all Terrans.

[–] autonomous@lemmy.ml 6 points 1 day ago

Just more federation efforts to please members like Cardassia so that they don't have to fight fascism.

[–] marcos@lemmy.world 11 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Ok, I had to parse what UFBC actually means to discover if somebody has come after the comic's author or if it's a joke about a fictional universe...

I don't feel good about this.

A comedian on a major broadcast network was recently fired for, after calling a recent assassination in America a senseless killing, sharing mild criticism of the political advocacy done by the dead guy.

So here, the Universal broadcast network is joked to be firing the comedian Martok.

[–] marcos@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It's about US politics, if it doesn't apply to you it may not be worth understanding it.

[–] CubitOom@infosec.pub 5 points 1 day ago

1930s Germany didn't really apply to me either. I still learned about it, and I'm glad I did.

[–] CyberEgg@discuss.tchncs.de 9 points 1 day ago

Since fascism.
