Star Dreck

Roddenberry always claimed that in the 23rd century people were Atheists and better off for it. So, there wouldn't be any Muslims in the 23rd century, never mind in Starfleet

Pretty much, yeah. Although for some reason Native Americans are still religious in the 24th century.

Fun Fact: ((A con artist)) duped the producers of Voyager into hiring him as a consultant in creating the character of Chakotay. All that Indian culture Chakotay babbles about is total nonsense that a fake Indian made up.

That's all any Indian bullshit is. They just spew nonsense about "muh sacred this" and "muh sacred that" whenever they want to block construction on anything or need some kind of new special treatment from the government.

Given the number of extremely successful fake native bullshit artists, I'm starting to suspect this as well. Ward Churchill being another one. It's almost like there's so much bullshit that the bullshit from an actual native can't be distinguished from the bullshit of a white guy who grew his hair out, even by other natives. Many any tribes being so depopulated by disease that they basically lost all their traditions as the entire older generation died off (because muh oral history only) certainly supports that they've been making shit up for generations.

No way would indians still exist for more than a generation in a world where you can just replicate booze out of nowhere.

I think it was the TNG episode 'Family' where Picard's brother gives him a bottle of wine from their vineyard and mentions the replicator 'Synthohol' is less intoxicating than real alcohol. I daresay it'd be better for your liver as well, not that cirrhosis would be a problem with the medical treatments they've got in the 24th century.

Dare say it is a classic.

Eh. I sold my DVDs of it. It's a hard watch today largely because it's Bush era politisperging.

The big tittied Jewish Brit was good for a fap, though.

The blonde one with the huge nose? There were much hotter girls on that show and much hotter Yentas if you're into that.

If i remembet my Star Trak well they can cure being turned into a giant invisible dinosaur person so massive liver damage should be on the same level as a bad tooth ache.

They still can't cure baldness, though.

Also, in TNG season 2 they established that you can use the transporter to reverse aging. Later episodes just ignore that since it breaks everything.

The concept for Star Trek: Picard appears to have been created by Bryan Fuller, the original show runner for Star Trek Discovery. After Fuller was fired is when all the plagiarized crap from the Tardigrades video game was added to STD (although the CBS scumbags tried to pin the plagiarism on him anyway).
Although it is a scumbag move, CBS can apparently legally use Fuller's concept without giving him credit.


The reason Picard looks so elderly (besides the obvious reason) may be because he has space Alzheimer's (the disease he had in the future in "All Good Things...").

But there's still proper hard booze around and it's not like it's difficult to make even today, much less if you can just replicate exactly what they need.
Indians would find a way to drink themselves to death and Slavs would find a way to drink even more but survive and tune Klingon junkers into Saturday Special track starships with Adidas stripes.

Picard looks so old because the actor is almost fucking dead.
