Wow! Fucking wow! Just wow!

F looks beautiful
Wonder what Worf did to E
The D did the thing where it pulls a U turn before warping
The whole Borg thing kind of adds up - satisfied with that "reveal"
The fleet seemed to be almost forming symbols with each sub formation - wonder whether that is just my perception?
Yes, this is all a little bit Control 2.0 but fuck you all I still love it
Shelby was always gunning for Riker's seat, and she overtook him to become an Admiral - fair play
Shaw finally said the words - it hit will

Love this show so damn much - but I do think the one off nature of it has been part of what makes it work so well. I don't think 4 seasons of this would have the same impact whereas it hits you in the feels as you know this is the last time
 
It's only one more episode left. I think you can tough it out. You've got this.
Of course I can. Can't I say something negative without others thinking I am flying into histrionics? It doesn't work for me anymore. I also thought the BWAAAAAAA noise every time we saw the Shrike as a bad musical choice. It's not a big deal. I'm not going to say STAR TREK IS RUINED FOREVER.
 
“That ship, and all the Borg on it were destroyed”

“you think in such 3 dimensional terms”

it’s clear the Borg Queen is more so a transitive consciousness able to be passed from host to host

Only 2 original souls created the initial collective, Locutus not the voice, and the Queen.
 
RE: Shaw. I don't think he's dead, at least not for good. Stashwick has been way too vocal about a possible spin-off for him to not be part of it.
 
I disagree, I think it makes a strong statement on our younger generation that is so reliant on networked computers and the IoT where everything is dumbed down to the point of hopelessness. Many young people feel hopeless today and blame the older generation, not themselves. So this episode turns 25 and younger against the older sucessful generation.
I've had my life damaged in irreversible ways that can literally be rooted in me doing something my parents and older people told me to do instead of what I knew was right in my heart. This decision cannot be easily undone and affects me to this day and for the rest of my life. I can't detail it without getting into personal details that stray far beyond the topic of Star Trek and this thread.

Bottom line, you're not going to get an agreement from me on what you said and it'll get ugly if someone keeps pushing on me that "older people know best" etc. Like I said, I live with the repercussions of following elders. every. day.

So... let's go back to Trek discussion in the 25th century and steer clear of the real world.

True. And one could say that it would ruin the emotional impact of the Seven/Shaw scene, but since they keep resurrecting Data, they obviously don't think it's all that bad.

I meant no disrespect to anyone personally. That's just how I see the initial modern day commentary on this episode. Star Trek has always been a critique of whatever modern day world it airs in.
