Nix Panicus posted:That feels like a peak libertarian point of view. Slavery is barbaric because it deprives someone of their chance to make their own decisions, but if someone enters permanent indentured servitude of their own free will, well, thats just rational self interested individuals making optimal decisions according to the majesty of the free market! Which makes it fine if one of those females gets sold into servitude since it puts the labor to use and she can't manage money so this is better for her. The Ferengi are great characters I just can never tell which parts the writers want me to agree with and which parts they want me to disagree with.

the ferengi get it right that the holodeck technology would primarily be used for cumming

I think the conception of Ferengi is inconsistent because DS9's Quark turned out to be a fan favorite character so they needed to be rewritten to be less objectively loathsome

I just assume for every Wild West caper there were a dozen fantasy suite sims. O'Brien probably had to fix the cum gutters on the holodeck at least twice a week

The height of being a cosplay nerd is making your own costume, and that will continue to be true into the 24th century.

I can’t believe the Bad Thread has spent over 24 hours of the regulars making GBS threads themselves and rolling in it, while the only mod active so is laser-focused on shutting down Tara Reade chat they didn’t realize public threats after a single on-topic post would just Streisand Effect the whole thing. Now that we’re in day two, they’re posting “oooo, wait until Dad gets home!! ” at all mentions of Reade while allowing the rest of the thread to stay derailed oh wait no, of course I can believe that, it would be dumb to expect anything but

StealthArcher posted:Oh, yeah the absolutist commentary seems more the point then, yeah, unless they also Just remembered the best Roddenberry horniness episode. The one when the command crew got so distracted with the orgies on the pastoral horny planet that they half-assed the survey and Wesley almost got executed for walking on the grass while everyone else was banging because the officers had skimmed the local lawbooks and didn't notice that while the laws themselves were unremarkable, the only punishment for anything was the death penalty
