...non-thermal population inversion of energy states - although they do not use resonant cavity feedback and so lack spatial coherence and mode purity. After stellar emission lines, air glow, aurorae and human -produced laser sources used in adaptive optics (AO) and LIDAR, it's hard to think of...

...T'Kuvma's speech was essentially religious/cultural grievance, arguing that the tolerance of the Federation was a corrupting influence on the purity of Klingon values. It kind of got lost in the shuffle as the season went on, however - as was the case with most of the theming. It didn't...

...a eugenics program whose members understood enough basic biology to know that genetic diversity is beneficial, rather than pursuing racial purity like the real-world idiots did, it would've had a better chance of generating actual results (though probably not within the depicted time frame)...

...in 2027 I would imagine there is going to be some picking and choosing. Even for whatever they decide to put on Disney+. There is a kind of purity to saying "THIS is what was at the Coronet Theatre in San Francisco on May 25th, 1977." But I, personally, don't think that's the way to go. My...

...in fiction because audiences liked it and it made them money, which was ultimately all that mattered to them. These days, though, they do seem to be getting more aggressive about pushing ideological purity. It's hard to say whether they'd really prioritize that over making a profit, though.

That all sounds very weird, so some of what you're hearing may be muddled. I'll reserve judgment until we get official word. If it means Toei's shows get official simulcasts on YouTube going forward, I'm all for it.

...to Space Exploration, while incorporating Babylon 5 and The Orville into the franchise. There are some interpolations within the fandom, but the whole concept of "purity" can bring some issues. And this is all to skirt legal issues so that Japan can market to the west. The lengths they’ll go

Geriatric Trekkie: I've never watched this movie. And I never will. It violates the purity of my favourite television programme. Where'd th' secular humanism go at? (Turns off the telly erasing the movie from existence) Geriatric Trekkie: I'm going out for a stroll. (Turns off computer and...

...Go to your posts! The first great victories are upon us. You will see. We have millions of friends on Marcos 12. We shall exterminate all who oppose us! Our purity of purpose cannot be contaminated by those who disagree, who will not co-operate, who do not understand. They must be annihilated.

...stories with a more liberal or inclusive bent because such stories are popular and make them money, and money usually outweighs ideological purity. Yes, there is a branch of the industry that's all about the conservative ideological purity, the branch where you'll find Dean Cain and Kevin...

I mean - you kinda' nailed it here, what the criticism comes down to. "Starfleet Academy" on it's own is just a hollow setting - like Hogwarts, or Prof Xaviers mutant school, or Nevermore. What the show will be like in the end comes mainly down to the characters inside that setting - the Harry...

...and that Tatiana Maslany is playing his mother. I can see some people being somewhat let down by this, because it kind of cuts down on the "purity" of the concept of the Academy as a setting if you have a main character bringing so much baggage into the season. But I don't know if that...

...the weeds are the most interesting thing in the garden. A botanist might pull the weeds to clear the ground for their desired order and the purity of their experiments. But a biologist, like Skip Howard, would allow the garden to grow wild and observe. He walked through this obscure corner...

...who did it. Well, the only way any "eugenics" program could actually work is if it embraces hybrid vigor, rather than the racist ideas of "purity" that drove the real-world eugenics movements of the 19th-20th centuries. So even if the creators were located in a single place (like, say, the...

...Rome fell to the spears of our ancestors, as the Jews are falling now. Look at our destiny. (the flag behind the bar) The field of red, the purity of German blood. The blazing white circle of the sun that sanctified that blood. No one can deny us, no power on Earth or beyond. Not the...

This. "Amok Time" makes it clear a sense of elitism and racial purity is somewhat present in Vulcans.

Why was Captain America found worthy to pick up Mjolnir? Purity of heart? Indominable spirit? I dunno. Take your pick. :shrug:

...but necessary acts of devotion, and the result is a bracing character that may just be the series’ most memorable villain. Alas, the purity of D’Jamat’s nefariousness leaves little room for growth, so the episode falls back on one of the franchise’s hoariest clichés: the doubting adversarial...

...be done right, I'm sorry to say I was convinced by their use in Picard. The reclaimation cube was a neat idea, but tainted by slaughtering the recovered XBs. I liked the Borg becoming federation allies, could be more stories to explore there. But ultimately the purity of their concept has eroded.
