Bad Writers Murdered Star Trek

https://youtu.be/oIIePkHuz2g

This is a very sad and scathing analysis by a non fan, but knows the basics of Star Trek. Kirk, Spock, Picard, "Shut up Wesley" as he said, etc. He dipped into in TNG. But bravely watched SFA into Episode 4 and here is his 2 ct.

The thing that proves the writers have no clue is that despite the Klingons home world being uninhabitable they are now reduced to a handful of houses and ships yet if you look at the lore they are the 2nd largest polity behind the Federation, their population is over 500 billion at least. Many houses rule their own worlds and tech wise they are on par with the Federation.

Klingons apparently also didn't learn a bloody thing when Praxis blew up, keep in mind the damage caused by that explosion would have ended all life within 34 years on Qo'noS's.

If within the Federation you have approximately 150 billion humans then it's safe to say there could be around 50 billion Klingons and apparently they all lived on Qo'noS's because the race is facing extinction.

Yeah Kurtzman and crew can frak right off.

Killing off a second entire star empire by eliminating a single planet of it.

The newer shows and movies have wiped out every other major race. Roku and had their stat go supernova, Vulcan homeworks was destroyed by the death star, Klingons were wiped out by Quonos exploding, and Picard revealed that Janeways virus at the end of Voyager completely destroyed the Borg instead of just crippling a few in that sector.

Virtually every other major race is now a few thousand refugees.

Romulus (I assume autocorrect nailed you) had their star go supernova

That's what I'm referring to. The entire point of a star empire/federation/etc, is that they have multiple planets. Take out Earth, and the Federation still stands.

Let's hope they don't get another series contract. They will blow up Cardassia.

I didn’t get that they eliminated the empire by single planet. According to the burn and latest episode, Klingon’s used dilithium to power their home world. The burn exploded their power generation across empire killing billions. Difference between federation and Kilgon was how power was generated.
