I am going to make a multipurpose graphic for Tuvix threads.
Will it include screencaps of Sisko poisoning that colony, Picard letting all those people on Worf's brother's planet die, and Archer threatening to airlock people?

Lilyful, don't worry, Tuvix comes up every few months or so.![]()
We're ridiculously defensive. Whether or not that's purely reactionary at this point is up in the air.
Prior to ENT, VOY was the black sheep of Trekdom. (Now it's more the dark gray sheep.) Janeway is the brash, stubborn older lady riding on said dark gray sheep with a fancy saddle, so she's a pretty easy target.
^ There's quite a bit of that, too.
Others aren't fond of her writing, which (outside of a few things) I quite disagree with, personally, but I can see the argument.
The question is that if some people who say that really mean the writing or something else. Hard to say until you talk it out.

I agree that there are certain things in Janeway's writing that bother me. Tuvix is a great example. I mean, really? Janeway never even had a choice in that episode, because it was about two of the series regulars. The writers painted the character into a corner. As I've said before, that episode would have been a million times better if it had been Crewman Smith and Ensign Jones who became Smones. THEN it would be fair to judge Janeway, as a character, on her choice, because only then would she have HAD one.
But, yep. There are quite a few people who just hate Janeway and are afraid to admit why, so they look for plot points to justify opinions that are based on personal feelings.
And now I'm going to go read some fluffy fanfic to wash the irritation out of my brain.
I am two episodes from Year of Hell. I'm looking forward to it because all of the pics of her from those episodes look really hot.
