#star trek hell#I’m sorry I have the edgelord gene I can’t help it#but also LOVE taking people who GENUINELY CARE ABOUT ETHICS like Picard Kirk spock etc and Subjecting Them to Situations#like yeah murder is Bad but what if you’re in a hyper lawless place and it’s the only way to keep safe or build order?#can you stand by the prime directive if you’re looking at Planet Mad Max and seeing how HORRIFIC it is?#the federation pisses itself over shit like genetic augmentation so how about a whole race of genetically enhanced cyborgs built as an army?#who have now taken total control of the area the ppl who made them were fighting over and are basically their own species now#and WANT to engage with the federation peacefully as they try to shift to like reterraforming their devastated planets?#like they’re basically the borg but with personal autonomy and all these things and gross out the feds are normal to them#and also they’re imperium of man inspired so like… do we really wanna piss off the cybermen#with war ships like 10 times the size of our biggest ship?????#like idk I’m always prone to increasing the grimdark content even when it’s not that kinda show (especially then)#but also I love challenging ppl who get all philosophical about shit to like stick to those beliefs when confronted with Real Yikesy Freaks
