Let's go
Honestly the Bell Riots look tame in comparison to what's already happening.

Risa: Your Home Away from Spacedock

Welcome to Risa
All the pleasure of shore leave, none of the holodeck glitches.
Rule 1 — Be Civil, Not Klingon
This is a vacation planet, not the neutral zone.
- No harassment, brigading, or trolling
- No bigotry
- Keep the banter playful, not hostile
Rule 2 — No Prohibited Cargo
Some things aren’t welcome aboard.
- No spam or scams
- No porn or sexually explicit content
- No illegal content
- NSFW memes must be properly tagged
Rule 3 — Keep It Trek
Posts should be Star Trek memes or Trek-adjacent humor.
- Crossovers are fine
- Low-effort “unrelated” memes may be spaced out the nearest airlock
Rule 4 — Gatekeeping Belongs in a Black Hole
You’re welcome to have your own opinions on what counts as “real” Star Trek but forcing your view on others or pretending it’s the only valid one? That’s not the Starfleet way.
Everyone’s Trek is valid, from TOS purists to Lower Decks shitposters, and you don't get to dictate what is real or not for everyone.
If you see a post that violates the rules, or that doesn't inspire Jamaharon, report it so the mods can handle it.
Otherwise grab a horga’hn, order a Risan Mai Tai, and enjoy your shore leave.

MODERATORS
Anything outside of university level history studies is always not the worst parts of the past. I was shocked to learn later as an adult about atrocities in my own state when the grade level stuff was mostly boring and decades of events got at best a paragraph mention if at all.
Hell, even now in the age of video tech everywhere and real time connectivity, we only get brief glimpses of things here and there and not the whole picture, and things get overrun by the next story and often forgotten.
And it's no accident
They have a real attempt on keeping the people fed, the police is not the ones brutalizing the poor, the government is ashamed of how they treat people...
Start Trek authors absolutely could not predict the Republicans. I don't blame them, but it's incredible how wrong they were.
Babe that's not the star trek timeline we're on.
So we're not heading for world war 3 with drug-fueled soldiers? That's a relief!
Ah, so... I'm kind of a general nerd not particularly a Trekkie, but that sounds like something that would've happened in our universe in the star trek timeline, yeah.
Is there cannon history for our universe in the star trek timeline, or only the 'main' one ?
😭
At least be grateful the terrain empire eventually falls.
Q and the wormhole aliens both take an interest in the Sisko, but nobody think it's weird humanities greatest turning that sets then on a path to space travel and scarcity free society is caused by a time travel paradox.
Which event is that? They are all massive time travel paradoxes in each season
