Totally get why it’s infuriating but it does look pretty cool. Especially when it’s so subtle you don’t notice it easily without a closeup.

      Neither of you were joking. You’ve both doubled on that position so you can’t fall back on the “Oh I was kidding” explanation here. Especially considering that within a couple of minutes of posting that comment, every single recent comment or post I made was randomly downvoted.

      Moreover, you’re both desperately attempting to move the goalpost here. You never started this as a debate about the art. You openly, both, started saying that the people behind it didn’t understand Star Trek and therefore it wasn’t canon. If you wanted to actually discuss the art you would have done so honestly and genuinely, not try to shoehorn it in after the fact and claim that I’m trying to stifle critiques. No. You both came at this in a hostile and hateful fashion and are shocked that someone has dared to point that out. You never said this was about the art. Don’t try and pretend that’s what you’re doing now.

      Call me a dick all you want. I’ve seen what makes you cheer and I couldn’t give less of a replicated tribble about your boos.

      I wish you both all the best but I’m going to take my leave here and just avoid the both of y’all from now on. I have no interest in being around such dishonest, disingenuous, negative, cynical and hateful behavior. Take care.

          I also am not joking about whether something should be allowed to be dismissed.

          What is a joke, however, is the meme version of “no war in Ba Sing Se” which is what he initially got mad about.

          I’d agree on the core element. They’re constantly questioning what is and isn’t one thing or another. They literally have a talk with data about “what IS art” in an episode.
