News Starfleet Academy Coming to P+

The 32nd century is literally the same as any other Trek era. Indeed, the common criticism from those who have watched seasons 3 and 4 of Disco is very little was done to distinguish it from the 24th century. The only real differences are ships now have floating nacelles and there are no Klingons. That's it. Otherwise, it's the Same Old Trek.
Just as the only thing that really differentiated Enterprise from 24th century Star Trek was the terminology. "Phase cannons" instead of "phasers". "Polarize the hull plating" instead of "raise the shields".

I am going to infiltrate the labyrinthine organization of Love Stupids disguised as a social media manager and janitor. With my shaolin skills and the power of my mind and gloved hands I will copy their plans and then hire even more social media managers of my own, and a wizard and form Stupiscorp International Conglomerataed, a registered Sealand Corporation in fact I already did, and no one can stop me from making sure that Space Acadamy gets made, but in the past where they can't stop it from happening, and anyway Doohan has agreed to star in it.
 
There are a lot of misconceptions floating around regarding our campaign. I think it is time for a more coherently defined mission statement.


Mission Statement: Preserving the Legacy of Star Trek and the Vision of a Starfleet Academy Series

The #StopLuveStupis campaign is a grassroots movement of passionate Star Trek fans dedicated to preserving the integrity and core values of the beloved Star Trek franchise. Our primary objective is to voice our concerns about the upcoming Starfleet Academy show set in the 32nd century and advocate for changes that we believe would better align the show with the spirit of Star Trek.

Our campaign is built upon the foundation of respect and sincere appreciation for the Star Trek universe, its creators, and its fans. We recognize that our beloved franchise is a diverse tapestry of storytelling that has evolved over time, and we celebrate the unique perspectives and opinions within our community. While we may not agree on every aspect of Star Trek's trajectory, we remain united in our love for this iconic science fiction universe.

Our goals are twofold:

  1. Advocate for a change in the setting of the Starfleet Academy show: While we are not opposed to the concept of a Starfleet Academy series, we believe that setting the show in the 32nd century is a misstep that could detract from the core values and essence of Star Trek. We propose that the show be set in a more familiar timeline, one that would allow for a richer exploration of the Academy's role in shaping the future leaders of the United Federation of Planets and Starfleet.

  2. Call for a new showrunner: We respectfully request that CBS consider appointing a new showrunner who demonstrates a deep understanding of and commitment to the core values of Star Trek. We believe that a strong and experienced leader with a clear vision will be essential in guiding the Starfleet Academy series toward a successful and authentic portrayal of the Star Trek universe.
We understand that building a community around these goals is no easy task. The #StopLuveStupis campaign is committed to fostering an environment of open dialogue and collaboration, where fans can share their thoughts, ideas, and hopes for the future of Star Trek. We aim to work together, bridging the gaps between different generations of fans and nurturing a space where we can unite under a common banner.

Starfleet Academy can be saved. With the dedication and determination of our community, we can ensure that the legacy of Star Trek endures for generations to come. Together, let's celebrate the spirit of exploration, innovation, and unity that defines the Star Trek universe.

Live long and prosper.

I have a few mission statements...

1. If you immediately know the candlelight is fire, then the meal was cooked a long time ago.

2. One man's ceiling is another man's floor.

3. Never run with... scissors?

4. When a father and son do not speak, it means... there is trouble between them.
 
getting away from the lovedoofus stuff and on to something more serious,

Academy could do well to have someone that has experience both as an actor with a legacy in Star Trek, experience as an actual instructor, so bringing that to the mix, the knowledge of a stage director AND the omniscient powers of a being of pure energy. I really do hope they consider Brian Brophy for a role.

It would be only fitting, as Robau is going to be the chancellor.
 
This is 2023. Sadly I just turn on the news and see things even stupider than this every day so it can be hard to tell sometimes.

I understand that the world can seem overwhelming and full of issues that might be more pressing than a campaign for a TV show. However, it's not fair to dismiss the "Stop Luve Stupis" campaign as "stupid" just because it doesn't align with your own priorities. Everyone has their passions and interests, and for some, Star Trek holds a special place in their hearts.

Starting a campaign is not an easy task, especially in a world where self-expression and personal projects are often met with ridicule and dismissal. It takes courage and determination to put oneself out there, knowing that others might not share the same enthusiasm or viewpoint. We're not asking everyone to agree with us, but we do hope for a bit of open-mindedness and understanding.

We're all entitled to our opinions and passions, and it's important to remember that what might seem trivial to you could hold great significance for others. So, instead of brushing off the campaign as "stupid," let's try to respect and appreciate the diversity of interests and ideas that make our world interesting.

You mean the diversity of complaints.

This is not a campaign. This is one person complaining.

Okay, maybe two.

And no, it's not a trickle before the flood. Don't even try that feint.

Understanding of what here? This is a claim to speak for what Star Trek means to all fans and to speak on behalf of everyone. That's the height of arrogance in terms of what the Academy show might be. It doesn't respect other possible points of view of what Trek can mean, nor does it explore what the 32nd century could offer in the terms of potential exploration.

In short, it creates a very small focused idea of Star Trek and says "This is the only right way," and couches it in religious and spiritual language to make that sound more right.

How is this being respectful of other points of view?

Beyond here I don't see this chatted about elsewhere.

How bored are you?!?
Either that or you have a bad trip...

You're right. What's another word for stupid?

Your campaign is dense, foolish, halfwitted, idiotic, imbecilic, doltish, dumb, thickheaded, daft, scatterbrained, nonsensical, unwise, absurd, ludicrous, asinine, cock-eyed, zany, and futile.

To name a few.

Wow, it's disheartening to see such a harsh and dismissive response. I put a lot of effort into the campaign, and to see it labeled with so many derogatory terms feels incredibly disheartening. I understand that not everyone will agree with the campaign's goals, but I had hoped for a more respectful and open-minded dialogue.

The "Stop Luve Stupis" campaign is meant to be inclusive and respectful of all opinions. We're not trying to exclude anyone or force our views on others. Instead, we aim to create a space where fans can come together and express their thoughts and concerns about the future of Star Trek, particularly the new Starfleet Academy show set in the 32nd century.

I wish you could see the campaign for what it truly is: a gathering of passionate fans who care deeply about the Star Trek franchise and want to ensure it remains true to its core values. It's disheartening that my efforts to unite fans and create a platform for discussion are met with such negativity.

I hope that, in the future, we can engage in more constructive conversations that foster understanding and empathy, rather than resorting to name-calling and dismissive language. We all have a right to express our opinions, but let's try to do so in a way that promotes dialogue and connection rather than division and hostility.
