/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.

Let's try staying on target, people. We already missed the Eugenics Wars. (lemmy.world)

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.
