Did you know in NuTrek that BLM and Trump supporters trigger/are part of a second American civil war that leads into WW3?
Bell riots, second civil war, WW3, eugenics war. The lore for that time period in Trek is a mess. They’re all smooshed together and so vaguely defined.
Stop trying to keep the timeline contemporary Rick Berman you fuck.
This is one of those rare things you can quite blame Berman for. It’s mostly due to most of that stuff being g made up in the 60s
I think it would be easier to just say that the Trek timeline from 1960-present is an alternate history than to constantly retcon details about the setting as new things happen. Plus the way modern Trek comments on modern political issues is really, really bad so I wish they’d stop.
The Bell Riots are a prophecy.
i hope the prophecy is a bit versatile this time around because the original creed relies on people being empathetic on the internet
