@lxskllr @MirrorAyako @startrek I really dislike #ForceOfNature. I appreciate the attempt at an allegory about environmentalism, but I think it’s poorly executed.

TNG’s The Pegasus may be the only other episode that references the warp speed limit (Picard receives permission to exceed the speed limit for the mission)

I don’t think it’s ever mentioned on screen, but, supposedly Voyager’s moving nacelles are supposed to mitigate the warp drive damage to subspace issue

I rewatched the episode, and it's interesting.... the climate change analogy is obvious, but also as much eco-terrorism and radical activism. #Serova comes off as the impatient extremist, and her actions cause the subspace rift, which explicitly end up endangering her home planet and the disabled Fleming even more.

Surprised Star Fleet didn't create a verteron weapon based on the mines for the Dominion War.🤔

@kcarr2015 @lxskllr @JoeWynne I appreciate what they’re attempting with #ForceOfNature but, IMHO, it was sloppily executed

The crew comes across as climate change deniers (at-best, closed minded bureaucrats)

The sister could’ve proven her point without unaliving herself.

Before putting a speed limit on warp, the writers should’ve considered if they’ll actually follow through on it. Aside from a couple brief mentions in TNG, it never comes up again on screen.

Not sure why #ForceOfNature is on that list. Reviewing the IMDB page, people think it was too preachy?

Not me. Seemed pretty reasonable, and even that audience reaction in context works as part of the story. 😖
