It should be said that while it was pretty soy, as in humanist, liberal and embracing French revolution values old Star Trek was more idealistic and sincere. In Picard the cruel and disillusioned worldview of pomo rears its face and crushes the naivete of the old series. There is no hope for a better tomorrow, it says, but you should hate whitey and continue with the dissolution of man anyway. Maybe this system doesn't work, but instead of properly addressing that let's continue as before but meaner. Kill those who aren't tolerant and so on.
In video related we see more of that, from function to dysfunction.
I should admit that I'm actually a vegetarian myself, but not for modernist reasons. What I consider wrong is the industrialisation of butchery and the dishonor you do nature when you do not hunt as a man in nature, but as something beyond it. There's no dignity in that. Wouldn't think twice before pulling the trigger on a nigger though.
>I recall having read of an Englishman who, while hunting in India, had shot a monkey; he could not forget the look which the dying animal gave him, and since then had never again fired at monkeys. Similarly, William Harris, a true Nimrod, in 1836 and 1837 travelled far into the interior of Africa merely to enjoy the pleasure of hunting. In his book, published in Bombay in 1838, he describes how he shot his first elephant, a female. The next morning he went to look for the dead animal; all the other elephants had fled from the neighbourhood except a young one, who had spent the night with his dead mother. Forgetting all fear, he came toward the sportsmen with the clearest and liveliest evidence of inconsolable grief, and put his tiny trunk round them in order to appeal to them for help. Harris says he was then filled with real remorse for what he had done, and felt as if he had committed a murder.
