The Star Trek Guru

I make those videos about Star Trek. Click the link below to check out my channel. Personal twitter is @renthebarbarian

The biggest waste of potential in Nu!Trek is that a human character never said “Vulcans don’t lie” in front of Michael Burnham, who would laugh and say “yes they fucking do!!!!”

SNW is funnier when you imagine that it’s TOS Chapel’s personal fanfic

“…and also I’m a cool punk girl and I can beat up Klingons and Spock LIKES me…”

[The Star Trek Guru @GuruTrek]

I don’t even have epilepsy and it was difficult for me to watch. SNW continues to be the most ableist Star Trek.

Jesus Christ, MAJOR epilepsy/flashing lights warning for Strange New Worlds S2E1 around 33:30.

Is it just me or does the Borg c*m thing in Picard have extremely uncomfortable parallels to AIDS ��

If you as an autistic person relate to Data, then by all means ignore me. Your feelings are valid.

[The Star Trek Guru @GuruTrek]

*Personally* it annoys me when people say Data is autistic. Not just because of the robot comparison, but also because Data is often infantilized and autistic people are treated like dumb babies all the time.

Now autistic Worf? That’s representation I can get behind.

DaForge shippers watching #StarTrekPicard 3x07:

[The Star Trek Guru @GuruTrek]

Remember in the original series when Starfleet straight up invaded the Gorn’s territory and Kirk and Bones went “oh shit maybe we WERE wrong”

(Of course that was before the Gorn were turned into generic horror movie monsters but I digress)

[The Star Trek Guru @GuruTrek]

Modern Star Trek be like:

“Why are you attacking the good and noble Federation?”
“Actually you people inflicted horrors on my people so our anger is justified.”
“Hmm. But you retaliated? So actually you are the bad guy here?”

[The Star Trek Guru @GuruTrek]

In the next episode of #StarTrekPicard, the crew will get a little help from the ghost of Tasha Yar.

[The Star Trek Guru @GuruTrek]

@steve_shives's video about Section 31 made me think about how the idea of Section 31 doesn't even feel horrifying today since we're all so used to be spied on. They're basically Space Homeland Security. DS9 was pre-9/11 and it shows.

Enterprise D crew finding Barclay’s holoprogram:

Me reacting to Shaw in PIC 3x01: this guy is a prick

Me reacting to Shaw in PIC 3x05: this is my favorite character

[The Star Trek Guru @GuruTrek]

“I hate you Picard for the Locutus of Borg thing” Benjamin Sisko SPRINTED so Shaw could bum-scooch

[The Star Trek Guru @GuruTrek]

@GLExcelsior The ableism, dumbing down of the Gorn, oh, how about the episode where Pike is cool with child murder just so long as he’s getting laid?

[The Star Trek Guru @GuruTrek]

I hate being the only Trekkie who dislikes Strange New Worlds. I am Cassandra, screaming the truth to the people who would not listen.
