    the maquis are booj. legit settled a border zone for like 20-30 years and are now willing to kill people over it when they could just move to one of the hundreds of other planets in the federation or just go back to earth, which is again, a paradise

        yep. the fact that theyre willing to kill and die and potentially start a quadrant spanning total war over it which will drag in trillions of people, they are selfish people and i hope they die (and they did! _)

        honestly id like an exploration of what the seedy element to star trek earth society might look like. we never really get a huge dive into civilian life in star trek

          Picard sorta tried that and it was awful. They just kinda decided capitalism never actually went away and also drug addiction is still common and everyone is an asshole.
