I’m sorry, but were you under the impression that Janeway, in any fashion, fucks around?

Even Troi had to kill someone to complete her bridge officer test.
Kirk@startrek.website 2 weeks ago
yes but she felt bad about it

I sure feel bad about sacrificing everyone in this planet, but I really want that admiral promotion

Hol up. My feelings matter?
ValueSubtracted@startrek.website 3 weeks ago
Well no, not yours.
Thedogdrinkscoffee@lemmy.ca 3 weeks ago
Not really. It’s just what captains say to keep crews slaving away and risking their lives without compensation.
xkbx@startrek.website 3 weeks ago
Their feelings matter it’s just that nothing’s gonna really be done about it

Just a little murder, now and then. As a treat!
BeardedGingerWonder@feddit.uk 2 weeks ago
Think of all the murders she did when the camera weren’t rolling.
Evil_Shrubbery@thelemmy.club 3 weeks ago
Coffee addition is “ok”, murder was absolutely necessary.

“if i somehow couldnt do murders anymore id probably just fly into a black hole” -Janeway
OpenStars@piefed.social 2 weeks ago
No fucking way. Janeway like her coffee SO MUCH (how much is that, you ask? I will tell you, she loves her coffee SO MUCH!!) that she would even go to the extreme ends of not murdering someone to get it.
Possibly not Tuvix though, bc fuck that one guy in particular.
But a normal everyday murder, on a Tuesday, she would absolutely forego in order to have her coffee fix.
Evil_Shrubbery@thelemmy.club 2 weeks ago
Lmao, given the choice between coffee and killing Tuvix she would still kill Tuvix. Like any good captain.

What’s even crazier is they had to promote Sisco from Lt. to Commander to give him a whole space station, then promoted him to Captain and gave him a ship for his space station. When I’m pretty sure if your running a space station you should at least be an Admiral. Did this never make sense to anyone else?
King_Bob_IV@startrek.website 2 weeks ago
It was meant to be a backwater station around a planet that was unstable. Mostly they job was be in the way of cardasian return and try valiently to get things towards Fed membership. I believe he had been a Lt commander aboard ships serving as the XO. He was at least a project lead at the ship yards. He may have even run the yards, I don’t recall right now.
He was pushed into a command role that was intended to bring him back to where his career was many to be.
The rank of a station commander depends on the importance of the station in the fleet. Admiralty are posted to stations that are region command stations. The postings serve as command of the fleets in the region as well. For smaller posts the rank to command them drops a lot. Sisko was placed in command of one small station with a couple runabouts. The rank of Commander suits the post. Once it got more important he was already imbedded deeply with the the bajorans.

My issue with the “you’re not a burden” is that, it may be true but you can totally be a burden.
Whereas I think it’s always okay to ask for help.

That’s… uh, that’s the one you have an issue with?

Admiral Marcus be like:
Let’s kill the entire crew of the Enterprise so I can get away with starting a war
HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
that’s correct ben. i’m a problem.
autonomous@lemmy.ml 2 weeks ago
That’s definitely not the text Sisko should have. I think it got switched with Janeway by accident. She didn’t arrange the death of a Romulaan high official to involve another nation in support of her war (and do a whole episode about how they can live with it), or poison whole planets for personal vendetta. 🤷♂️
Solumbran@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
I mean… Crimes of war Sisko?
HobbitFoot@thelemmy.club 3 weeks ago
War crimes are not a burden. After all, he can live with it.
NotASharkInAManSuit@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
He was a really good dad, so it evens out.
Skullgrid@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Fucking yes! More people recognizing Sisko is a bastard.
Solumbran@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
For me it was always obvious.
I mean, Janeway was thrown into a hostile environment with basically nothing, and sometimes picked the less moral choices, to make her crew survive.
Sisko decided to ruin the lives of basically a whole planet, just because he was to arrogant to admit that he got defeated.
I think there’s a matter of context, and Sisko has no way to justify his behaviour other than “I see myself as god so I can do whatever I want”
GuyFawkes@sh.itjust.works 2 weeks ago
Those war crimes saved the Alpha Quadrant!
Norin@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Yeah, but those war crimes were cool.
