>Star Trek has always offered a positive vision of the future, a vision of hope and optimism, and most importantly, a vision of inclusion, where people of all races are accorded equal respect and dignity, where individual beliefs and lifestyles are respected so long as they pose no threat to others. We cannot turn our backs on what is happening in the upcoming election. Never has there been a presidential candidate who stands in such complete opposition to the ideals of the Star Trek universe as Donald Trump. His election would take this country backward, perhaps disastrously. We need to elect a president who will move this country forward into the kind of future we all dream of: where personal differences are understood and accepted, where science overrules superstition, where people work together instead of against each other.

They wouldn't vote Clinton either. Clinton is obviously a Romulan spy.
In the end, they'd vote for Rand Paul more than any one from this cycle, but more so Ron Paul for being a military man, a medical doctor, and an honored and honest statesman.
There's no wan anyone from either Star Wars or Star Trek would vote for either Trump or Clinton. They're both too retarded and selfish.

In the past of the Star Trek universe, Mankind only finally united and got their shit together after the disastrous World War 3 happened.
As such, a real Trekkie should be voting for Hillary Clinton who is GUARANTEED to wage World War 3. While it may be regrettable 80-90% of all humans will die in this war, the survivors will despise the elites with such intense fervor that the bankers and arms dealers will all be hung by brutal """courts""" filled by bloodthirsty survivors looking to finally pin the blame on the guilty.
Afterwards we can finally have a peaceful society that advances into post-socialism galactic expansionism, thanks to the eradication of parasitic usury practices and war for profit.

Treks progressed with progressives. Progressives still had not turned into modern regressives by the time he died. Modern SWJ problems non-issues that are conflicting with real facts might make him spin in his grave.

this, Trek is basically a post-google society.
All the useless ones died out and only the absolute most intelligent and integrated survived.
He didn't really get to live and see the complete degregation of black society, as he passed away while they were working hard towards creating a good future. Something that has been abandoned in 2016.
When you see things like that, its no wonder you would have high hopes for the future.

Naive belief. In Trek they needed few decades of totalitarian plutocracy and nuclear war to get into situation where people started to cooperate on global level to achieve something greater. Earth might have central government, but it also had autonomous local governments under it. They still have distinct ethnic groups and everything is based on merits. Quite different from modern "progressive" ideals.

WH40k is parody. Most of writers and creators have been progressives, few libertarians in mix as well, but they are minority.
Here is good article on Treks ideological aspects and how it has progressed with progressives turning into regressives.
It still promotes the idea that a one world government is the solution, and the idea that promoting liberalism on a large scale will somehow help.
It's not. The Federation is the UN.

Liberalism that is closer to classic liberalism than modern SJW liberalism. Economy is basically post-scarity socialism, but no need for capitalism in traditional sense as there is enough of everything except for few things that can't be replicated.

Equipment needed for planetary defense is far too complex to be built by a loose purely military alliance. Deeper cooperation required for that and also for united diplomacy with less hostile aliens. Just designing building NX-class ships literally took huge toll on all resources in Earth.

Modern blend is degenerated form of it. Roddenberry was very much against totalitarism SJW's represent. Free speech, meritocracy and shieet.
>Just like the UN did.
Resurrecting the league of nations was very much on agenda since day one and it was never military alliance, allies in WWII just called themselves united nations for some reason. UN charter entered force in October 1945, after the war had already ended.

People like Trump and Clinton are not allowed near power, generally, in the Federation, the exception being Section 31, and Section 31 is only allowed because they're a necessary evil for dealing with the likes of the Romulans and Cardassians and their very underhanded intelligence techniques.

The future you describe is more likely to occur under trump. While you may see all of us trump supporters as racist bigots and what not, and believe me, we have our racists as much as you do, we're not the bad guys here.
Even if we don't agree with you, we don't actively crusade to censor you at every opportunity. We don't manipulate the media and pay people to commit acts that violate laws and freedom of speech.
We don't burn down towns like Black Lives Matter.
We don't kill people for religious causes like Islamic Extremists.
We just shitpost and talk crap about the opposing party, as well as present arguments with evidence behind them (although some right siders seriously need to make a bigger habit of presenting said sources)
Tell me, is that really bad? I mean, what's so dangerous about some people on a computer screen saying mean things? Have you ever seen us doing things as bad as the Black Lives Matter riots and terroristic attacks in MODERN DAY America?
By silencing us you're against freedom of speech. Freedom of speech means all speech is allowed. You don't have to agree, but you can't censor it. Besides, what's wrong with hearing both sides of the same coin? Open your mind a bit. You'll learn nothing if you seclude yourself from any opposition, refusing to learn what else is out there.

Cultural marxism wasn't mainstream until 68'ers started to get into positions of power in progressive movement, that happened between late 70's and . Sixties progressives went into a war against communists in Vietnam due to domino theory and dealt with shit like nuclear standoff against commies in Cuban Missile Crisis. JFK, RBK and LBJ were the progressives of 60's.
Jonathan Ramirez

Lets think about this....
They had nuclear war caused by plutocrats, after it they basically lynched said plutocrats and also war profiteers. (((they))) aren't in power. Main motivation for world government is dealing with external threats from outer space with diplomacy if possible, with force if necessary.
Luis Lee

Except, that there is constant war, subverted government systems, overblown militarization, leaders of all kinds corrupted by perceived personal gain, races and species at each others' throats in spans of centuries, a technically advanced quadrant spanning power who "legally" disallows anyone to share any of their life-improving technology with "lesser" provably sentient beings, and wars that steamroll out of control through many sectors.
It sounds to me like everything Trump is aiming to clean up in our real world.

I dont get the reason as to why they're against him. Everybody sees Trek as a socialist utopia, which it is, but it's a fascist utopia as well. Starfleet is in control of everything and if a race of aliens isn't particularly keen on joining up, fuck em, they're the enemy. Explore strange new worlds? Honestly looks more like they're discovering and categorizing planets that have valuable resources on it and claiming it for SF. Trek is more along the lines of an incredibly massive Mongolian Empire than a socialist utopia.

>Season 4 of Enterprise is the best season of all of Trek. I wish they had been able to continue.
The format with two three part episodes was good middle ground between continuing story show and episodic show. Aside from series finale that is final insult to the show there are no weak episodes in it.

Speaking as a Trekkie, or, a fan of the Original Series, what made Trek great was how the crew reacted to the hilariously horrible Politically Correct scripts they were forced to act their way through. Like the half-black aliens, for instance.
It wasn't that the show was good. The plots, just like in today's Trek, were plugged toilets slopping over with the most virulant brain-poison available. What made it great was how the actors, obviously good friends offscreen too, reacted to the buckets of shit being hurled upon them with humor and derision. It was like what would happen if the MST3K audience were IN the movie.
So no, it's no surprise that any organization that would have taken Star Trek seriously would make such a move- In fact, it's eminently logical. Moreover we should treat it as the original ST actors did- With humor and derision.

If Hillary didn't have a track record of literally saying whatever it takes to get the vote, then yes Hillary would be the best choice, but let's be honest with ourself, she hasn't been honest and kept the word of her campaigns.
She has done nothing of significant value with her roles as Secretary of State or as a Senator.
She has 100% been involved in Pay for Play and the Clinton foundation has squandered billions of dollars to live the pockets of their friends and themselves.
Trump represents hope, he cares about America - he always has but he also cares about his family.
I think Obama summed up Hillary best, and if he wasn't so loyal to his party and to saving the work he's done that Trump is proudly going to destroy he would not be supporting Hillary. youtube.com/watch?v=UTtizmetQMY

Star Trek fan here, voting trump. In the Star Trek lore, the earth went through a long and bloody war, after which all of humanity emerged equal. Once everyone was equal in income, living conditions, health access and rank, did they start taking steps to unite the earth under the federation.

Kind of liked it. Its about an astronaut who ended up in the far side of the galaxy and meet all these aliens. One of the aliens he meets, and eventually porks and knocks up, is actually related to humans.
The aesthetics and concepts are more alien than some sci-fi shows. The ship they're in, for example, is a bioship-starship hybrid. Some aliens in the show look more alien than Star Trek aliens. And weird. One looks like a BDSM "sub" enthusiast/gimp.
It's made by Jim Henson's company so it may conjure up ideas that the show is kiddy, but it isn't.

Starships should look a bit more like sea-faring ships and/or submarines, but in space - space is, in many ways, an ocean. Kind of like the Space Battleship Yamato, but it should look less like a sea-faring warship.
Or warplanes, but gigantic and space-worthy, like the TNG redesigns of Romulan and Klingon warships.
The 'AYY LMAO' saucer configuration makes it look out of place. The Intrepid (Voyager) and Prometheus (Prometheus) class starships were a step in the right direction. Even the temporal ships introduced in Voyager, the Timeship Relativity, is better than the saucer designs.

Federation in Firefly was pure plutocracy, everyone there was blue pilled idiot, enforcer of regime or rich fuck ripping off rest. Browncoats just wanted to have freedom from surveillance society, even if meant worse living conditions.
The reason to like it chemistry of cast and characters. Bunch of bickering misfits in broken piece of shit ship trying scrape off living on grey area of law.
>Another favorite. Not sure why I like Western-themed space sci-fis.
Same as Firefly. Just anime and with jazz sound track instead of country.
>i didn't watch farscape >should I?
Depends do you like shows about bunch of goofy misfits in space.
>as for Caprica I'm not sure wtf they thought they were doing
Show that wasn't about space battles. Higher concept stuff about nature of AI, even more than BSG itself.
He ruined both universes, SW to much lesser extent.
High concept scifi is usually about things like nature of space, time, humanity, AI and so on, usually in quite philosophical tone. Trek is more often about adventure and hamfisted analogies to current issues, but it is at is best in high concept scifi.
Kirk and Spock being opposites of original characters. No time delay in travel. Planets ridiculously close to each other. Transporter that makes starships obsolete. Getting shit done trough pure luck instead skill, determination, struggle and shieet. Kirk going from busted cadet to captain of flagship of the fleet in few days while ignoring orders from superiors.

High concept scifi isn't hardcore scifi. Two very different beasts.
Treks primary hull, secondary engineering hull and engines ship configuration is surprisingly sound (even before trek pseudo science kicks in) and pretty unique design. They wanted a ship that isn't A) a flying saucer or B) a rocket. Sphere would be better than saucer in engineering sense, pressure distribution and so on, but saucer quite efficient when it comes to space utilization. The saucer was supposed to be act as lifeboat in case of destruction of rest of ship even in TOS, but it was never separated due to budget constraints.
If you want a realistic space ship in hardcore scifi way.. it's either a tube or sphere. Depending do you have to separate things like propulsion, sensors and living quarters from each other, if it's that way you end up with tube.

Star Trek is a cultural icon while 40k is at most quite niche and at most only known by the mainstream in Bongland.
It's kind of sad that Blizzard were able to take concepts from Fantasy and possibly 40k and make proliferate them so with Warcraft and Starcraft.
>It was literally made for the sake of a good setting.
lmao
It was a setting literally made to help sell a disparate range of models and so that GW was no longer shackled to relying solely on others. Any 40k fan that has been around at least a little while will tell you how so many parts of it lifted from other series, some of which are known and others obscure. One of the things it did do well however was make these various aspects of settings work well enough together.
There is even stuff in Rogue Trader and possibly other earlier books to suggest that the writers didn't see it as a serious setting, on the other hand those just could have been British attempts at humor.
40k isn't really science fiction either, but space fantasy. Outside of perhaps Forgeworld material they don't attempt to actually explain how anything works with hard science or give the indication that anything is based on actual current or plausible science. At most the models that are made draw inspiration from things that exist in our world.
Honestly as a fan of 40k I find it pretty annoying that Cred Forums, particularly the Trump parts, have latched on to it and seemingly believe that the Imperium is actually something to be aspired to rather than seeing almost all of it to be an example of how arrogant and disgusting humanity is.

klingons were way better looking in JJ's movie if you're talking about aesthetics seemed more like a real alien race rather than ugly space orc mongols
Charles Lopez
I really haven't seen much evidence of that and at most any popularity that 40k gets is through the video game licenses that use it (Dawn of War is how I first found out about it). However not every person who plays the video games goes on to look into the series further, usually it seems like they just read the wikis that are available online and spout outdated memes, some of which don't make sense.
The hard thing with stuff like that image is that thirty years have passed and without actually talking to the original writers it's hard to say whether the intention was a joke setting with some serious elements or a serious setting with some joke elements.
When you have the creator saying that the Horus Heresy is supposed to be Paradise Lost, that implies the latter.
Benjamin Bailey
Depending on what reasons you like Star Trek, you may also like The Expanse.
Only one season is out, so far, however its very good (in my opinion). It doesn't have the same leftist idea of utopia, its far more... realistic. Racial conflicts are a thing of the past, and instead conflicts are based on economics and ideology.
My problem isn't with the aesthetics, its with the fact that JJ shit all over the established aesthetics.
Alexander Clark
By the meme generation, I mean the culture we have here on this board and basically every other imageboard which isn't totally cucked. you can't deny WH40k's popularity here.

I like the one where riker fucks up his mission and they need to do a first contact scenario early and the aliens freak out. And the scientist alien lady asks to go with them at the end
Picard: I'm not sure you're prepared for the realities of space travel
Scientist: I've been prepared for the realities of space travel ever since I was a 9 year old girl at the planetarium
This part always struck me as one of the most powerful, and underrated, moments of the show
Hunter Peterson
>it's hard to say whether the intention was a joke setting with some serious elements or a serious setting with some joke elements.
It might be both at same time. Any RPG or table top game setting is written by tons of authors, all of them have different visions. Quite often they don't even try to make it fully unified in tone.
>When you have the creator saying that the Horus Heresy is supposed to be Paradise Lost, that implies the latter.
RPG's usually rip off tons of things in those. When rulebooks fluff material includes thoughts of day saying basically do not use Emperors optical fibers in vain or face inquisition... it's satire all the way. Just less subtle on some occasions than others. Rogue Trader had way lighter tone than almost anything since it. Stuff became darker and bit more serious when kids got interested in it in larger numbers.
Ian Howard
>klingons were way better looking in JJ's movie if you're talking about aesthetics You're wrong.
Jaxson Robinson
>Depending on what reasons you like Star Trek, you may also like The Expanse.

When it comes to why Trek is utopian, explanation is pretty simple, world was going trough some of coldest parts of the Cold War back then.
Almost all other scifi shows are darker than Trek. Even contemporaries like Prisoner.
Jordan Hughes
>>It might be both at same time. Any RPG or table top game setting is written by tons of authors, all of them have different visions. Quite often they don't even try to make it fully unified in tone.
In the grand scheme of things 40k may have changed, but since Rogue Trader apparently only had one author, the creator who also said the Horus Heresy is akin to Paradise Lost, I don't think there would be much divergence about the tone of 40k until at least the second edition.
The Thought of the Day stuff you see could actually be serious given the culture of the Imperium.
Gabriel Hughes
nah. you're just used to the originals. if you look at it from an objective standpoint the originals are pretty shitty design. though their spaceships are pretty decent looking
Thomas Gray
>seemed more like a real alien race rather than ugly space orc mongols
JJ's Klingons are pretty much same as Klingons had been since the motionless picture. They look better because they had way higher budgets than TOS had.
Leo Roberts
Lots of fluff stuff was published in contemporary white dwarfs. There were tons of authors involved even then.
