You're probably right, but their directive tract would have to be closer to something like a cow to get significant nutrients from raw food like humans do from cooked.
Just as an example, cows have four stomachs and use a fair amount of energy breaking down their food between chewing/grinding and then the digestive processes complex digestive processes that have to follow.
Cows then have a pretty good amount of brain function dedicated to involuntary systems for digestion that use even more energy.
Species that eat cooked food retain more nutrients and calories from their food, require less energy to digest it, and are able to provide a surplus of energy for higher cognitive processes and devote less grey matter to GI systems.
So, it's not because the Klingons are Brown that they're retarded, it's their consumption of uncooked food.

Thats because they eat grass, which has garbage nutritional value without a specialized digestive track. People can survive on raw vegetables and meat just fine. We did it for tens of thousands of years. Cooking meat wasn't so much beneficial because it aided our digestion, but because it kills off germs and parasites.

Because they can't leave shit well enough alone. Klingons are the bad space aliens so they make them more and more grotesque with each form. It was fine in TNG era, especially with ENT giving us - thank goodness - a reasonable, canonical account for the change.

Colm Meaney is a Meaney

War time O'Brien versus Garak, each get 48 hours prep time

Who wins?

>>85608558
As soon as the battle stars, O'Brien and Garak's bombs explode, destroying the battle arena, killing Garak instantly. O'Brien was a transporter chief for years and got out in time.

>>85608663
Garak also escapes in time. In fact, he was never even there.

The only casualty is Julian, who they were both using as a hostage.

>>85608558
I'll assume the DS9 station is the battlefield since that's where they both reside. O'Brien wins because he's in Starfleet and knows the inner workings of all the technology there which he uses to his advantage

You do know the station was built by Cardassians, right? Garak was part of the obsidian order, he wouldn't go down easily.

I'd bet on O'Brien as well though. That IRA experience isn't something Cardassians can just mess with.

For its time it was highbrow as fuck and extremely "happening", but the messages are very simple for people born after it came out. You have to remember that 67 was right in the middle of the hippie era, the cold war, and soon after the 50s segregation stuff. People only had three TV stations and still fully believed in the jingoistic nationalism pushed by the government.

>>85609181

>>85611746
There's nothing wrong with believing whatever you want to believe in, I only meant that at the time it came out there weren't many other views than the bog standard you still got on TV, it was absolutely stagnant from 1950-1967, then TOS happened and it blew people's minds because the message was basically "lol whas good niggas, fuck all that government approved leave it to beaver shit, what if SPACE COWBOY, who is friends with Russians, AND makes out with aliens and even negresses?"

>>85611832
It was shit and stagnant, what we have now is just about as bad though. Actually It's practically identical.

Social Justice and modern day progressivism is the literal antithesis of 60s progressive attitudes.

Back then the message was everyone was equal and everyone should be judged on their merits and ability. Now progressives demand that the very first thing you take into account about a person is their race, then sex, then orientation, then religion, then any disabilities, then apply a bunch of victim labels to that person, and assort them in a victimhood heirarchy. Next they demand that all cultures be kept separate and never mingled to preserve cultural purity and prevent "appropriation". Finally, they are actually demanding resegregation of colleges, which will likely spread to businesses and other places.

Modern day progressivism is an exacting parallel of 50s white supremacy, and it is an absolutely abhorrent ideology.

>>85611862
It was, but it was still opposing the popular jingoism of the day.

>>85611965
Boomer here. I always expected Chekov to betray the crew. I think most people thought this, that's why the actor transitioned so well into Bester on B5. Same character different context. Also, as far as I recall, Kirk was forced to kiss Uhura, he didn't do it of his own volition. So, maybe your view of history is a little skewed. Not sure, buddy. Anyway, let's all agree that niggers and women don't belong in Star Trek.

>>85612335
He wanted the kiss in. Executives demanded two takes, one where they didn't kiss, and Shatner crossed his eyes at the camera so they couldn't use the alternate take.

>>85612522
Kinda true, the original characters he wrote were good, but all the stories he wrote with them were terrible and the franchises were only saved by them being surrounded by competent people. The only difference is Gene didn't live long enough to demonstrate it to everyone as clearly as George did with the prequels.

>>85605954

Complaining about Star Trek being socially progressive is like complaining about an airplane for having wings. It is the central ethos of the entire franchise.

But this progressiveness annoys me

>the Admiral is Locke from LOST

wow

I think it's funny that Trumptards are using the term 'social justice warrior' as a pejorative, considering this show is about warriors who are often fighting for social justice.

I'm gay. I've been a fan of Star Trek most of my life. I watched episodes of Next Generation every day after school for years. I'm thrilled we're finally getting a gay character. Star Trek has a big lgbt fanbase and I'm sure many of them feel the same way. It's a big deal.

I think a lot of those people are actual Star Trek "fans", but our fandom has a huge issue with double standards. Some people think their favorite series etc. was the best and that any new stuff is crap, even when it's covering the same themes. It's like they become irrationally blinded by double standards.

And especially, it doesn't help that the Trek fandom has ALWAYS had a toxic fringe that hates on any new Trek before it's even out, and claims it's garbage regardless of actual merit, once it's out. It's been the case with each Trek series etc. since the beginning. That toxic fringe among the TOS fans tried to get TNG cancelled, the TNG fringe hates on the new movies and claims they're bad despite how successful they are or how we wouldn't even have a new TV series without the success of the movies etc., and so on before that.

So I'm pretty sure there would be toxic "fans" hating on DSC no matter what, but the current online propensity towards negativity & hating things before they're even out probably isn't helping either.

The worst is when such "fans" spam their hate online so much that mainstream people pick up on it and think the hate is representative of the fandom as a whole. It just gives all the fandom a bad name. :(

Most fans fully support CBS's Star Trek: Discovery, and will be watching with eagerness and hope for the future.

>>85612848
You trannies disgust me, why are you even watching a show about a time when your kind has been cured?

>>85612724
he pulled one of the best guest starring in whole trek universe

>>85612928
Obvious CBS troll posting isn't funny btw, take it to a thread actually about that shit.

>>85612946
Let me stop you right there.

See, part of the problem is that, for a lot of people even mentioning that some people have faced challenges in life because of their race, gender, LGBT status, etc., is just dismissed as "self-righteous virtue-signalling." Even using the phrase "virtue-signalling" to describe those who dare acknowledge these problems indicates that, in your mind, the only reason someone would want to talk about those problems is because they want to have sex with the people they empathize with.

A real appreciation for diversity does not just mean a show "prominently features characters who happen to be women/brown/LGBT/etc." Merely "featuring" somebody is one thing - ie, casting a black captain. But when you take that black captain, send him back to mid-20th century Earth and have him get the shit kicked out of him by white police officers for no reason, or let him explain to Kasidy Yates that he's uncomfortable visiting a nostalgic casino program because the era from which this 'nostalgia' comes was a time of white dictatorship from the perspective of black people, that's actually talking about diversity. That's doing something meaningful with diversity. That's advocating for a cause, not just waving your hand at it and hope it goes away if you have enough people with wrinkly noses or blue faces.

"Insulting and unnecessary lecturing" would be a good way to talk about it if you're the kind of person who thinks that mentioning that being black, or being LGBT, presents certain unique challenges in life is "self-righteous virtue-signalling." Those of us who want to actually champion for diversity and talk about real social issues, however, would prefer not to be talked to as if we're "insulting" you by telling you that racism, homophobia, and the like are still real problems faced by real people.

The idea that Star Trek isn't preachy is just not true, and that's one reason I love it. Picard often got long monologues explicitly stating the moral lesson of the episode, and they were spectacular. But, yes, preachy. The other shows were similarly preachy.

There were plenty of episodes that were explicitly or implicitly about tolerance for "others". It was a major part of the message from the beginning. One example that leaps to mind is the TOS episode about half-black/half-white aliens who were sworn enemies of each other.

It's diversity for diversity's sake. And there is NOTHING wrong with that.

If you ever played Star Trek Online, you'd be shocked by the volume of xenophobic, racist, homophobic people in their chat

>>85613067

I think the weirdly large uproar when they portrayed a lesbian Klingon couple was funny as fuck, especially considering nothing else was focusing on it besides a single line of dialogue.

>>85612928
>DSC

Way to out yourself, marketer.

>>85613108

Oh! I really would love to see more casual mentions of non hetero-normative/"non-typical" relationships and identities in Trek. TV tends to either cast a bunch of white males with one or two minority characters or a female character (usually a white female, because a minority woman is too confusing for the writers and audience /s) or make the fact that the characters aren't white and male the center of the show.

The best moments in Trek are when we get the "In the future, no one cares if you are bald" type reactions.

That said; is STO worth playing? Or is it as toxic as your comment might suggest? I've already got a CBS All Access Account just to watch the new Star Trek Discovery.

>>85613067

Kill all spoonheads

>>85613153
I enjoy the game and would recommend it to anyone interested in a Trek game, and as for toxicity, it's mostly confined to zone-wide channels and can be mostly avoided in its entirety.

Also, how does it compare to Firefly? Loved Firefly.

>>85614058
>>85614058
Original series or TNG. If the Original is too campy for you just go to TNG. First 2 seasons of TNG sucks too.

Have fun.

>>85614058
TNG first. A lot of the fist season is gash so feel free to skip episodes that look really dull.
This overlaps with DS9 so watch it alternately and then carry on with DS9
DS9 overlaps with Voyager so do the same again
At this point you can either wait to finish Voyager before watching TOS or mix and match if you like.
ENT is chronologically first but is based almost entirely on callbacks to the other shows so must be viewed last
You can watch TAS after TOS if you want, but it's not great. Then marathon the movies and Discovery last.

It's not really like Firefly because you're siding with the big interplanetary government instead of literal criminals, but the themes may be similar at times. Problem is Firefly owes a lot to Star Trek in it's existence, so you're sort of doing this backwards

>>85614288
>DS9 overlaps with Voyager
Only in the most trivial of senses in that the pilot starts on DS9 and it references a major plot point that happens during DS9, but there's no reason you can't watch Voyager when you're done with DS9 except that you won't have anything to look forward to at the end of the episode... actually yeah, interleave them.

>>85614058
it's very different to firefly wich I would describe as a space western while star trek is more space opera like, as for a start I would prescribe TNG on the shaky ground that the 2/3 first seasons suck. However the serie get better and you start to like most characters. TOS aged even more poorly than TNG first seasons but it is still watchable and it have a couple great episodes. this is a guide for TNG but I advise you to watch it all because some season 1 episodes are hilarious due to their cheesyness. and when you feel like it watch DS9 it's best star trek and everyone that say otherwise as been scientifically proven wrong.

>>85614384
I meant release dates. Same with DS9/TNG which also only crossed over once.

The advantage is that you get the good last seasons of the previous show alongside the gash first seasons of the new show in both cases. So it's not quite as much of a chore to get through as the start of TNG.

It's a fun episode and it was nice to see some aliens that they didn't understand at all but accidentally had a good first contact with anyway. What the hell is there not to like about it?

>>85594020
Pretty freaking weird, hehe.

It's Armin Shimmerman, people went nuts for it.

By that point the Ferengi were already a laughing stock.

It's boring, the colors are dull, and it's liked by Trump supporters who are pining and clinging to the past instead of moving forward.

We won't be seeing any more un-fun episodes like this in Star Trek: Discovery, that I am sure of.

>>85594055
Hehe, you never know...

New rule: no more responding to the pretend STD shill

Fuck, even that Bashircunt is better than this

It is sad how many people here are trolling against Star Trek: Discovery, isn't it.

Are you looking forward to Star Trek: Discovery too? Most true fans of the series that I know are.

>>85615312
I'm sorry you feel that my passion and enthusiasm for Star Trek: Discovery is worsening the quality of the thread. But I am certain that there are multiple people here who are sharing their enthusiasm for the new series and their distaste for the haters and trolls here.

>>85615372
There is a separate Discovery thread

This is for completed trek shows only

>>85615389
Do not try to police me or people like me who are appreciative of a new Star Trek series, specifically, Star Trek: Discovery.

>>85615389
No Enterprise allowed too

Fuck it, I'm not posting in the next thread

The fake shill officially made it not fun

Well done asshole, you win

Imagine making a show about star trek except it's just a satire and it actually turns out to have better set design than the actual new star trek show

Imagine hating Seth because he makes jokes you don't like..

Seriously nothing against the new trek it looks pretty interesting but bashing Orville just because it's gonna compete for your shows audience is fuckin sad.

>>85615471
I am not fake nor am t I am glad that you have been driven away from this forum by people who are happy with Star Trek: Discovery. You do not belong here, you are not a real fan.

>>85615471
Yay! :)

Seth Macfarlane is a hack, no true fan would watch his content. Everyone here is eagerly anticipating Star Trek: Discovery, why aren't you on board?

This is Shatner, isn't it?

>>85615537
Translation:

I am a shill being paid to post about discovery, please stop ruining my rate of pay

>>85615134
The shill is Shatner. I'm almost sure of it. He's probably invested some of his shekels into STD, and is worried about losing them if the show tanks.

>>85616384
Shatner hates STD. There's a tweet of him shitting on the SOCJUS people shilling it.

>>85608474
>I'm IRA

>>85616523
One tweet? Really?
Only one?
Where is it?
Show me.
