TenForward: Where Every Vulcan Knows Your Name
/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Hating someone off of their race, culture, creed, sexuality, or identity is not remotely acceptable. Mistakes can happen but do your best to respect others.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon' and fuck over our artist friends.
Fun will now commence.

I posit the eugenics wars are already ongoing.
When were they expected to start?
We have quite a few large scale genocides going on. So, yeah, maybe.
We've got nine months left in the year so we could squeeze in the Eugenics War for July and get Irish unification by December ..... hopefully we won't mix those up and end up with an Irish War and a Eugenics Unification instead

Do they ever give details on the eugenics wars? Like I assume it was a war between countries trying to do eugenics and countries who didn't but who won? Does eugenics include gene editing? I have to assume that a civilization as advanced as Star Trek would be able to edit out cancer risks and the like from genes.
Worth considering if records from our time didn't make it through with high fidelity and "eugenics" was.how they interpreted the christo--fascist-race-purity axis.of current conflicts.
At some point they absolutely include gene editing. But I'm not sure if they get into how it started, and I think the gene editing part was an attempt to make a better weapon.
What we know is that humans created improved versions. Stronger, smarter, more ruthless and cunning, more charismatic and good looking. And of course, also more ambitious.
Due to their objective superiority they rise to leadership positions in many countries or regions, and start warring with each other for world domination.
I don’t think it is detailed how the normal humans overcome the warlords, but they are defeated and killed / exiled (khan etc) and gene editing becomes illegal for everything but severe birth defects.
Also, at least in Khan's case, extremely narcissistic, which was his downfall both times.
