What are your controversial Star Trek opinions?

They stopped being considered the bad guys. They still acted like the bad guys much of the time.

I still want to know what happened to The Empire and if the Federation is cool with the Klingons having subject worlds like Organia. (Organia was definitionally not the first.)

Well the Klingons weren't part of the Federation. Just a alley. It's likely seen as just being practical. At least they weren't fighting each other anymore.
 
Again, how does this qualify as a controversial opinion?
How doesn't it? The opposition to this, indicates that it is controversial.

In other words Gene Roddenberry's attempt at having a proverbial good series, has been overturned. Therefore it is controversial.

What is going on now, with the series is approximately the same as a car going off a cliff and exploding for no apparent reason...other than it looks cool, and is therefore 'proper'.

It is not. Proper. And shouldn't be happening appropriately every season, multiple times.

The opposite argument is approximately "Oh, it Star Trek, who cares?".

This is an invalid argument. It is like in real life that you develop appendicitis, which needs to be removed, and surgeon takes your heart instead.

*shakes head*

I guess you enjoyed typing that more than I enjoyed trying to read it… Nonsense.

Good luck attempting to make a point in the future though. You keep on trying and I really do hope it works out for you one day.

What are you going on about?

What exactly are the "car explosion" equivalents in the "series"?

What does your appendicitis analogy even mean?
 
My eyes played tricks on me. I thought you said AI was being fed kittens. I mean if that was true then AI will have crossed lines even Skynet never went to.
Speaking of Skynet...how come T1000 didn't morph into something that could run fast like a cheetah instead of remaining bipedal? Or Usain Bolt? Dumb AI wanted to stay Robert Patrick.

It might not have the software for other body arrangements. IIRC, the only time we saw it in a shape that wasn't either humanoid or a blob, the T-1000 struggled with stability.
