>we want to be inclusive so we now have wheelchair bound people in a future where medical technology can just make cancer evaporate

Good spot /trek/.

These people have literally never watched Star Trek. Or they did and this is literally what they managed to take away from it. We've proven Alex Kurtzman only watched the TNG movies. And also failed to understand them.

Neither have you

There was a woman in a wheelchair in a DS9 episode, but that was only because she grew up on a planet with no gravity.

Why would I, Star Trek has always been terrible slop

Maybe her problem is not in the spine but in the brain. Some things are just harder to heal or even impossible.

Whatever executive put that fucking idiot in charge of ever single fucking star trek show, when he proved himself incapable on the first one needs to be fired. If one of my managers oversaw something as expensive and bad as STD I’d have fired them on the spot, but whatever the FUCK is wrong with Paramounts exec structure has them giving this inept dipshit MORE shows, more hundreds of millions, with terrible fucking subscriber number results, and not one person in the entire company knows that its time to ditch this ugly bullshit and just make a fucking star trek that belongs in the same universe as the Roddenberry Star Treks already.

This is why it’s a bad idea for companies to insulate themselves from public comment.

star trek was always woke
>>
>>217407031
No, she comes from a planet with low gravity. She could have had body modifications to adjust to earth & federation norms (implying every other federation race comes from planets the exact same mass as earth wtf lol) but refused bc she wants to be normal back on her home planet, & refused to be assisted in any way. Not the same shit as the Fed not having 24th century medicine, which was established in TOS already.

Cmon now, so basically the Federaiton has made barely any advancement in medical technology.

Hell even Picard has a fake heart that explodes at some point.

Maybe the Federation isn't that great.
>>
>>217407163
Bodies can't adapt or withstand changes in gravity beyond small amounts. No way someone is going from a low gravity planet to a place where they can't fucking walk and not being riddled with disease and deformity.
Humans are sublimely adapted for Earth. Either hand wave it away or deal with the issue accurately
>>
>>217407128
Yes, it just wasn’t the only thing it was. Old star trek was about solving ethical & technical dillemas by using the combined qualities of a whole assortment of your best & brightest ppl, much like we try to do in the mil (or at least did before Hegseth showed up). Diversity Trek makes the superficial physical details of the cast members its focus, making sure theres a cast member who looks like or shares the *traaaauma* of every possible person that could be in the audience getting screen time in equal proportions. This fucking thing implies the morality plays and ethical puzzles the audiences used to tune in to watch are a waste of time, now replaced by action scenes, overly emotional weeping, and simply a diversity roll call. Its fucking boring, badly written, and worse, the sets are designed stupidly and the cinematography is trash.

Other than that I’m woke as fuck. But ST is the worst application of this shit yet and doing equitable representation no favors.

They did nigga, thats literally a screen cap from the episode. They had that wheelchair built for her arrival, which they found somewhat sad & primitive, then turned the gravity down in her personal quarters while she was on board so she could rest after a day getting pulled down into her shoes.

HAVE ANY OF YOU EVER SEEN A STAR TREK

She would be fucked up by simply fucking around with different gravity or she would be quarantined to her low gravity room. It doesn't make sense
Why even be there at that point?

Eeerm, chud she choose to be araplegic because she is proud to be herself. She is stunning and brave.
Errrm, this. Is. Everything.

cuz its heckin DIVERSE you chudderino
also bashir fucks her in the low gravity room, the entire episode leads up to it

It was established that geordie could cure his blindness but chose not to.
This lady prefers her wheelchair. And that's okay.

>>217407031
>Far future
>Can't fix that forehead

Probably after the holodeck was created everyone just spent most of their time jerking off with a computer. Nerds and overachievers like Picard or Spock were more ambitious, so they had to get out on ships and shot around the galaxy so everyone could just fuck their waifus without listening to blabbering nerds
>>
>>217407652
why the FUCK do they have wheelchairs in the future? why not a fucking hoverchair? or do they also have mexicans in the future cleaning the floors at starfleet instead of a roomba?
>>
>>217407529
And she was only on board for a short stay, before she fucked off home.

That episode showed the one use of a wheelchair and it was shown as some freakishly primitive solution they had to build from scratch bc they were far more advanced than putting ppl in wheelchairs. …except in this one instance.


Even in early TOS era, Cap’n Pike is in a fully automated life support system after getting completely physically obliterated, dissolved and incinerated, not just some chair for wheeling around in bc the Federation doesn't know how to fix paraplegics. They can literally amputate your leg and grow you a new one while you wait, and even that is considered crude savagery.

Yeah true, every astronaut that goes up in space would get fucked up simply fucking around in different gravity. No one could ever go to space, soacewalks, the moon, or the space station because of this. You should call NASA with your amazing revelation, they’d surely want to know.

Big brains on 4chan saving the day as usual.

A wheelchair would not help a low or no gravity person exist in an earth gravity environment. Gravity effects so much more than muscle and bones. We're still finding new things going dysfunctional from low grab environments. From brain to your immune system. A wheelchair makes no sense. Maybe a special suit or something I don't fucking care but just sitting down will not stop the higher gravity from basically rotting you from the inside out because you're somehow adapted to low gravity, which might not even be possible for a human to be. A frankly when you think how much easier it would be to make artificial gravity contraptions than it would be to rewrite our genetics it makes no sense there would ever be a low gravity adapted human to begin with

TOS is also largely terrible, ngl

why havent we have a civilization that only moves via transporters? now that would be kineaux(kino)

Is it not? I just torrented them and started watching. It seems like a nice continuation of TOS, though I cant help but think it wont be long until Ai can approximate live-action visuals from having TOS to go on, to give us our final TOS season.

You're talking days and weeks. With exceptions for months and rare cases of years. These astronauts come back and have life long detrimental physiological changes that are still being studied and understood.

And the low-grav chick in the episode we’re talking about was on board for what, three days. How about doing yourself a favor and quit trying to argue about a thing you never even saw you tard, jfc you suck at this.

>>217408088
He is hard wired into it. You’d have to use a hatchet and chop his central nervous system & brain to pieces to get him out of it. Hes not really in it, he’s part of it.
