Well Shatners is actually rather inline with federation ideals IMO, condemnation of assassination and political violence regardless of their views
Now Beltrans otoh, dripping with right-wing adoration. But he never really liked his ST legacy or ST in general I don't think so doubly fuck him!
condemning violence is fine, but you don’t have to simultaneously normalize deplorable views.
Shatner has no problem saying we can’t discuss flat earth but for some reason draws the line at christian nationalism and white supremecism. there was a time that was a non starter as well, and the collective milquetoast center left is just enabling that overton window shift even more.
we are literally living through the tolerance paradox and it’s enfuriating.
Beltran has sucked for ages
Yeah fuck that guy. I used to like Chakotay too. Oh well.
I misread that as "Beltran has sucked eggs"
