Opinion on Space Force Logo

Status
Not open for further replies.
Our opinions, most based on established fact (meaning there's little if anything to be insulted by), were expressed there but it looks like the thread was deleted?
 
Oh. For. Pity's. Sake.
This again???? After all this time?

The space Force logo is a simple redesign of the EXISTING logo used by the USAF Space Command since 1982. Delta shapes have been used by Air Force logo designers since the 1940s. The delta shape used in this new one has been around since at least 1949. Military unit logos have been both shield-shaped and round, with the name around the border, since forever. I've designed several myself for the defense contractor I worked for for 38 years - some using existing elements of past logos for continuity.

When the Starfleet delta logo was first designed, they intentionally adapted the NASA delta to invoke the US space program. So Star Trek 'borrowed' from a real-world organization's logo first.
If you want to accuse someone of stealing, Star Trek 'stole' the NASA logo and reworked it first.

There's no reason for outrage; there's nothing to this crap.
Can we stop this nonsense now please?

In the same way Tolkien ripped off Rowling.
 
Because Orange Man Bad.

No, this is an example of TDS (Trump Derangement Syndrome)-and it's just as bad and stupid as ODS (Obama Derangement Syndrome) was when practiced by the right-wing. The progressives and the Professional Left need to go higher than the right wing did when they were engaging and indulging their ODS by NOT engaging and indulging in TDS.
 
Okay that's enough.

Politics goes in Misc or TNZ.
