Sorry, I don’t find any of the actions I described above to be sane. And if you think I’m being sensational, you haven’t watched Dominion yet, and you should. I was actually just describing the “normal” aspects of the dairy industry; the reality of the conditions these living, thinking, feeling beings live in are even worse.

Same here, and I’d rather be down-voted into oblivion than pretend my past actions weren’t “questionable”. I’d love to say I’m a proud vegan, but truthfully, I’m not proud of being vegan; I’m ashamed and regretful of how long it took me to become one.
For the vast majority of my life, I regularly paid mega corporations in a corrupt and evil industry to rape females with machines to impregnate them, then separate the children from their mothers shortly after birth so that I could drink the mammary secretions meant for those children (who were then murdered if they were male, or raised in deplorable conditions to become part of the process themselves if they were female).

I remember reading Timothy Zahn as a teen and not being able to put the books down. Tbh I think his plotlines are better than the movies.

The Star-spangled Banner (where the phrase “Land of the Free” comes from) was written in 1814, 51 years before slavery was abolished. The idea that America is or ever was the land of the free is a total joke.
It’s worth mentioning, while there are a lot of parallels to GTA, there are some important differences you should expect. For instance, there’s no ability to steal cars from others in this game. Rather you buy your own vehicles and drive those only. The game is more focused on the story and missions than the vehicle aspect.
Well, (and this isn’t exactly an answer to your question), one thing that’s interesting to consider is… if Spock killed Evil Kirk, he also killed Good Kirk. In other words he killed two people to save one (if you want to look at each of them as individuals in a sense equal to the original). Janeway “killed” one person to save two.
Yeah that makes sense, she could totally be messing with him… which I guess would mean the timelines diverged and somewhere in the multiverse there’s a Janeway that actually does remember everything! That helps my head-canon at least, thanks.
The Visitor is probably my favorite, and in the running for my favorite episode. I remember when I put that episode on, innocently all ready to enjoy another episode of DS9… 45 minutes later I’m basically sobbing in front of my tv lol. The beautiful thing is it probably wouldn’t have hit as hard if they didn’t do such a great job of setting up Jake and Sisko’s relationship leading up to it. Not to mention the performance from all three actors. Watching their faces as they interact with one another is incredibly convincing and just pulls you fully into the scenes emotionally.
I’m enjoying it for the most part. One recent choice forced a A or B choice where I really thought some compromise or alternative should’ve been an option, and kinda dulled my enthusiasm a bit. But I do find the settings and immersiveness engaging, and there’s a definite Trek feel to many of the plot points and concepts. I’m really looking forward to the new strategy game btw!
I’m watching through it now for the first time (I already worked through TNG and DS9). I’m liking it a lot more than I expected, given what I’d heard about it. I really like the premise, and Janeway is a badass. Plus even the characters that others don’t seem to like as much, I enjoy. I’m about halfway through season 4 and I have noticed a drastic increase in quality of the episodes too, lots of cool stuff going on, and Seven is awesome. I started calling Janeway Insaneway in my head after a couple of stunts she’s done.
Yeah this is how I feel. If you go in without expectations it’s pretty enjoyable, I liked it for what it was.
Did you forget humans are animals? If you don’t like using the word rape to describe sexually violating an animal, there’s another one we’ve come up with… bestiality.
Are you seriously trying to say humans are the only species who should have a right not to be sexually violated or have their children taken from them and killed? Since we know that cows are thinking, feeling, emotional creatures capable of forming strong family bonds… what exactly is it about humans that makes them special in that way?
