skrrt_vonnegut@jsdtweets what is your rom theory?
HELLGORITHM@jsdtweets a clip of this scene is what got me to start watching DS9 and i can't wait to get to that episode
Hieronymus Burps 🥦@jsdtweets also notable is miles talkin about how his union organizer ancestor got straight up murdered for it
@hieronymus_burp biggest funeral in western pennsylvania!
@jsdtweets freal a rewatch of DS9 is wild because even in the short years since it aired the violent history of labor rights seems to have been even more erased
Haymarket Pub has a drink on their menu in memory of the heroic cops who died
@hieronymus_burp holy god wow
@hieronymus_burp the DS9 two-parter on the Bell Riots is so goddamn good
@jsdtweets even that had a weird kind of naivete because well on the one hand open-air prisons for the poor but on the other hand still-functioning public services, kind of
good hat opinions though for sure
@hieronymus_burp haha during the episode I was thinking, wow free housing and services in specific districts sounds good so far
@hieronymus_burp really really shows how far things have decayed
@jsdtweets "this surely was the nadir of capitalist society"

Joosby@jsdtweets In the Pale Moonlight sucks me in every time.
@ssahnan if I'm being honest, Far Beyond the Stars is easily my favorite. DS9 was next level
@jsdtweets agreed. A 7 year arc masterfully orchestrated.
