I'm trying with #Picard but it's annoying me more and more.

Now, apparently, medicine isn't free in the future.

*sigh*

How is this possible in that energy is free (stars) and matter replication trivial?

If you don't like Roddenberry's #FullLuxuryQueerSpaceCommunism, you should write stories that question its basis not just flout its reality.

@evan

hehe, it's from when I did my degree in #Sociology, #Film and #AmericanStudies. I wedged #StarTrek in everywhere I could!

Also, growing up on Trek was a gateway to me becoming an actual #Marxist in my teens as both posit a future utopia. The beloved #FullLuxuryQueerSpaceCommunism that you also find in #IanMBanks #CultureNovels

@AmyZenunim

Whether it's #fusion, #AI, 3DPrinting or #ElectricCars, every tech is perverted to suit the profit principle of life under the bootheel of #Capitalism.

I'm not saying you have to be an active revolutionary (though that is fun). But we can choose to be #Bootlickers or not.

#FullLuxuryQueerSpaceCommunism now!

@rebeccakling

AHEM! EVERYONE! can we PLEASE get the above pipeline to #FullLuxuryQueerSpaceCommunism working, please?

WE CAN MAKE IT HAPPEN!

I made a remark about baby goats and now I'm thinking about the internalisation of oppression, the panopticon and how capitalism hobbles our very souls. Again.

Once we have #FullLuxuryQueerSpaceCommunism, once we have Banks' #Culture, once ALL HUMANS EVERYWHERE are truly free, these times will be seen as little better than feudalism.

#ACAB applies to our Inner Cop too.
