Spoilers Robert Meyer Burnett: "Terra Firma" will ruin Trek canon

How sure are we that Burnham changes history with the Guardian? What if she ruins history with the Guardian, Saru being obliged to retrieve her like Kirk and Spock retreived MCCoy?
 
My understand is the problem is that because the GOF has taken human form that when he says "Let me be your gateway" and drops his trousers and bends over - it's leads to a terrible misunderstanding and they phase him.
 
Who the hell is Robert Meyer Burnett??

That was precisely my response!

Seems he’s just some egotist from the “Trek gatekeepers” ilk who thinks he has some inside info and said info has ruined his life. I mean, even if what he’s saying is true, why doesn’t he wait until the episode airs so he can actually discuss it with others? I’ll tell you why. These types of people get an inflated sense of ego by sharing their “inside info” and making out that their opinions are somehow worth something more than anyone else’s. Maybe I’m being too harsh, but people like that tend to be narcissistic bores.
 
Meh, I always preferred the attitude Terence Dicks (a producer of Doctor Who in the 1970s) had on the matter.
"Continuity is only whatever I can remember."

In the nineties up until a few years ago, I used to be a fairly rigid canonista when it came to Star Trek. Then, I remembered that the Star Trek universe and fandom was a lot more fun and interesting for me in the years before Canon (with a capital C) became the equivalent of Holy Writ for a sizable segment of fandom and effectively asking what God needed with a starship rendered one not of the Body.

After that, I fired the canon and embraced a multiversal view of Star Trek as pop-cultural myth.
 
Well, if they fuck with COTEOF...it'll be par for the course for this dumpster fire. It's trivial one way or the other. :shrug:
 
Who the hell is Robert Meyer Burnett??
Probably best known in the past few years as one of the grifters involved with Axanar.......even though he left the project a couple of years ago and has been sued by Alec Peters since. Once pitched an idea with Brian Singer about a far future Trek universe........it was passed on and since he's hated ANYTHING Trek because it wasn't his idea.
