First, I did ask twice. I haven’t edited my comments so you’re free to reread them. Secondly, I’m not sure what I did to make you think I pissed in your Cheerios. We’re on the same page. I never said you had to be Worf in this scenario as that’s completely unrealistic. I was sharing a similar show that included a multi year story line about resisting home grown fascism.

I’m sorry I didn’t pass your purity test while commenting in a science fiction community.

I ask again; what did you want from my comment?

I completely agree. His spectre will likely haunt us long after he’s gone. Hatred and spite will be his legacy as well, so we have to do what we can to eradicate those symptoms.

So should I have only responded by linking an assassination video? DS9 and B5 are closely linked for many reasons and B5 has an actual Earth v Earth conflict that mirrors our present day. I’m not sure how to respond to this comment except to ask; what did you find so lacking in my original response?

I think about Earth Alliance President Clark a lot nowadays.

There’s some really poignant lines about following illegal orders. If you like DS9 and don’t like what’s happening under the current US government I implore you to watch Babylon 5.

Spoilers, and the clip hits so much harder when you’ve watched the build-up, but if you need convincing here’s a small sample about how topical this show still is.

If you really need convincing here’s one of the best speeches regarding invasion I’ve ever seen.

I didn’t see it on the list, but I’m a huge fan of the Gallifrey series by Big Finish! I’m gonna have to re listen to them as it’s been ages

What games is this? Looks neat!

I’m in the same boat; Nova was the first non-stock launcher I ever used. RIP to the memories

Ah yes, truly the Small Government (tm) that I keep hearing Republicans go on about.

Why only dream of two when you could be dreaming of 6.02214076 × 10²³

 

So long story short; I’m a huge fan of Terrence Mann (mainly for his work in musicals, but he’s done TV/Film as well).

If you use YouTube music and look up the musical ‘The Scarlet Pimpernel’ you’ll find some songs credited to ‘Terry Mann’. That’s my fault.

It never was a very popular musical, and I had uploaded it to my library back in the Google Play days. I may have given Terrence Mann a cute lil nickname for my eyes only roughly a decade ago, and now it’s the official meta data. I hope this doesn’t get corrected because I honestly think about it a lot and I couldn’t ask for a better legacy.
