TenForward: Where Every Vulcan Knows Your Name
/c/TenForward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags.
Use spoiler tags in comments, and NSFW checkbox for posts.
This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

I've always supported unions ... every major workplace should have one. I've lived in northern mining/forestry towns in northern Ontario all my life and I got to know old time union organizers who lived, worked and fought for their unions in the 1940s, 1950s and 1960s. I heard stories of how they were beaten by strike breakers, police and company scabs ... I even know one old Canadian Irishman who literally looked like Popeye with big massive forearms, squint in his eye and could take on a fight with men twice his size and still win, he was a classic hard fighting union man named Eddie. He fought in many union strike action and union organizing events throughout his early life with his brother. Their father died early from terrible workplace conditions and their mother was a proud Communist, at a time when communism was more popular in Canada. Eddie and his brother worked as dock workers in Vancouver in the 1950s and they fought hard for their union ... then his brother was murdered for being too successful in organizing workers and managing their union.
Never forget that every workplace right, workplace safety, weekends, working hours, child labour laws, holidays, overtime pay, minimum wage ... were all fought and won by deadly battles and strike actions by union workers in the past century. None of these rights or privileges were ever given over freely by companies, corporations or big business ... all of it was established on the pain, suffering and blood of union workers who fought and some literally died for it all ... for all of us to enjoy a bit of better living standard that we all enjoy today.
Workers of the galaxy unite!
Amen!! Well said!
