“I have reached the conclusion that the Negro’s stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the WCCr or the KKK, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to “order” than justice.” MLK Jr.
They should really look across the pond to see how letting right-wing goons into power works out.

Should go lower until they quit.

You have nothing to say except you’re not going to vote because you don’t like the system, but you have nothing else to offer? So just continue to slide into fascism?

You’re a troll or a tankie then.

Same with the ST universe in general.

I regard movies and a TV in which the putative “good guys”, or some of them, are actually the bad guys, as “dark”. “X Files” was dark. The episodes you cited were sad at points but not dark.

“3 Days of the Condor”, that’s dark.

What’s your plan for getting more progressives elected if not co-opting the D party, the way MAGA took over the Rs from within?
January 25, 2026 at 5:37 AM
I think that’s a problem for the leftists who want to take over the D party.

Starting a third party is even more difficult.

King’s point was that voter apathy is deadly to democracy.

What part of MLK’s quote do you disagree with? How does it not apply in this situation?
January 25, 2026 at 4:47 AM
Those aren’t dark in the sense that they have dark endings. They showed the best of the Federation officers, putting aside their their personal views to uphold the standards of the Federation.

ST6 was dark because it allowed a forced mind meld that was used as way to extract information.

It’s been a busy day.

What is your plan? Open borders or an immigration service?

Otherwise you’re just hot wind.
January 25, 2026 at 3:42 AM
It’s the leftists who need that. Get into the D party the way MAGA got into the R party. Take over from within. That’s the way to win. It’s exactly what Mamdani, AOC, Omar, etc. have done.
January 25, 2026 at 3:41 AM
What is your choice? Open borders or an immigration service that deports those not legally in the country?
January 25, 2026 at 3:40 AM
Here’s another from MLK Jr. :

“Even when the polls are open to all, Negroes have shown themselves too slow to exercise their voting privileges..... In the past, apathy was a moral failure. Today, it is a form of moral and political suicide.”
January 25, 2026 at 3:39 AM
Name them.

Democracy is not a law of nature. We can lose it. Withholding voting until a perfect candidate comes along makes it more likely we will lose it.
January 25, 2026 at 3:37 AM
Are you arguing for open borders?

INS was a mess. ICE replaced it.
January 25, 2026 at 3:36 AM
Try harder. No one is going to let you win in politics.
January 25, 2026 at 3:35 AM
The system is stuck in two party mode until we can get enough progressives into the D party to get widespread ranked choice voting.

Not voting or voting third doesn’t help that happen.
January 25, 2026 at 12:21 AM
Where do you think politicians come from? People aren’t born as politicians.

You sound like someone who should run for something. Maybe alderman, county commissioner, etc. Go do that. Get progressivism ingrained in your community.
