Star Trek: Insufficient

Post by SolarpunkFan »

Basically a faux-script parodying Star Trek Insurrection. I read this years ago and got quite a few laughs out of it. :wink:

Link.
Seeing current events as they are is wrecking me emotionally. So I say 'farewell' to this forum. For anyone who wonders.

I gave up after a little while. It's amazing how a decade and a half make pop culture references stop being funny and just sort of 'meh'.

can any one explain that seemingly random violence to animal bit at the start it doesn't seem to make any sense to me, hell it makes even less sense to me then Insurrection did.

Sojef clubs a cow in the head, which falls unconscious. Sojef proceeds to tear the cow's throat out and eats it hungrily.
Reminds me of "The Beast" Rabban Harkonnen from Dune (1983). That's not funny, that's just gross.

and it doesn't make any sense storywise either, for all it's faults Insurrection I never got the feeling that Ba'ku were suppose to be "the true evil" more like naive and misguided but not evil and this just seem the writer of this thing indulging on his brutality to animals fetish.

That's the part when this thing lost me, it was just random violence and brutality for no good reason.

I think the point was 'oh look at us saying we're so peaceful and enlightened' and yet if they still eat meat, they still be being cruel and violent to animals. Obviously exaggerated for effect not representative of actual animal slaughter.

well if that's the case by making it so unsudtle they actually ruined the intended meaning, it doesn't come of as showning hyprocrity so much as it comes of as random violence with no ryme or reason.
