context:
I love that she’s such a Trekkie that she doesn’t even know how to do the Vulcan salute properly, despite probably having seen images of it her entire life even if she never watched a single episode of Star Trek.
What is that, the Vulcan shocker?
Showing the back of the hand makes it look like she’s flashing some Vulcan gang sign, haha.
It’s this guy’s gang sign.
Ok, now it’s time for @[email protected] to make a meme of him giving that salute and saying, “live short and fuck you.”
You’re always there for me.
Edit: By the way, that actor was also in the Twelve Monkeys TV series and he’s really good in it.
The Spocker
My opinion: these hosts have to be so polarized on every opinion that they have to choose a side. Star Trek or Star Wars, she claims to not endorse Star Wars since it’s too “buzzword” and now has to identify as the opposite, despite having no knowledge or affection for the Star Trek franchise. I don’t know if it’s just the screenshot where she’s doing the hand signal backwards, but that’s about the most basic layman Star Trek cultural identifier out there. So of course she doesn’t know they have had non and third gendered species since TOS & Enterprise, along with a myriad of other issues addressed that she would get fired from that channel if she even reported on them as options.
TOS had the first interracial kiss between a white person and a black person on U.S. TV. It also shows a socialist utopia where men and women of all races are equal, indigenous cultures are respected, and they try to talk out a hostile situation before they resort to firing their weapons whenever they can.
Fox News should absolutely loathe that.
The neat thing about post scarcity societies is that economic systems become moot so long as the government isn’t particularly oppressive. It’s still an hierarchical, and somewhat militaristic, society.
It also followed the old scifi serial blueprint they were used to.
Yeah I thought about the Kirk-Uhura kiss but two things, they aren’t currently openly saying that shouldn’t be allowed (on Fox News) and considering she was a Yeoman or a Lieutenant at the time being kissed by her Captain is right along the “grab em by the pussy” narrative they side with.
You are right if they looked at any of the social establishments that the franchise embraces they would hate it.
and considering she was a Yeoman or a Lieutenant at the time being kissed by her Captain is right along the “grab em by the pussy” narrative they side with.
They were being forced to kiss by telepathic aliens. They both even admit they have had feelings for each other in the past but it was inappropriate to act on them. I don’t think that applies.
You know what I had forgotten those details. Good recall!
I’ve watched a lot of TOS in my life.
Fuckin dork can’t even do the spocker right
She really likes the Terran Empire and Section 31.
I didn’t see the headline at first and thought she was showing off her engagement ring on live TV in the most awkward way possible, lmao
Context?
Some conservative idiot with a camera in front of them called Star Wars too woke and then was like “that is why I like Star Trek”…… which obviously indicates they had no idea about the basic aspects of Star Trek.
Lmfaooooo
Star trek which has been openly gay and racially diverse since the fucking 60s? And had kinda sorta trans character representstion by the 90s? That’s the less woke one?
Most intelligent conservative ditz
Don’t forget that the Federation is supposed to be a post-scarcity socialist utopia.
Didn’t they do the first interracial kiss on TV? And there was the episode with these guys in it?
I doubt she’s seen a single episode lol.
But since she is so worried about whatever “woke” is, she should be made to watch Andor.
And there was the episode with these guys in it?
Yep. Let That Be Your Last Battlefield. They had to make it really blatant to get executive approval.
Also, there’s a ton of takes of (I think) Frank Gorshin fucking up his lines on the Star Trek Bloopers LP.
First interracial kiss on US TV, yeah, but not the first overall by a long shot
I guess they forgot about season 4 of Star Trek Discovery where Stacy Abrams was the president of Earth.
Oh right, I’ll put the context in the post body.
Where’s Hugh Dennis when you need him?!
Quick, someone tell her about Discovery
America you got some weird news hosts.
