@Rasp I doubt that'll happen. Even the trans person in question said they wouldn't stop being a patron.

@Rasp but they still get shit on and called a liar and a troll for daring to say anything, of course.

The Doctor gave a pretty decent argument against prisons here.EMH: No matter how terrible the crimes these men committed, it seems wrong to hand them over to be executed. This is a Federation Starship, not the Barge of the Dead.SEVEN: Would you have preferred the captain release them?EMH: Of course not. They're dangerous men.SEVEN: Executing them ensures they'll never pose a threat to anyone again.EMH: So would life sentences, the operative word being life.SEVEN: Confining them for life requires significant resources. The Nygeans may not think it worthwhile.EMH: What about rehabilitation? Given the chance, some of these men might become productive members of society one day.SEVEN: Their victims won't have the same opportunity.EMH: And that justifies taking their lives? An eye for an eye? It's not justice, it's revenge. Quite frankly, I'm surprised you're not troubled by such a barbaric system.SEVEN: I'm simply being objective. You often encourage me to see both sides of an argument.EMH: Well, this is one occasion when my programming won't allow me to be objective. Killing is wrong, no matter who's doing it.

NEELIX: Did you know the Nygeans govern a sector of space occupied by several different humanoid species?PARIS: If we say yes, will you feed us?NEELIX: One of those species is the Benkarans. They occupy just ten percent of Nygean space, but take up nearly eighty percent of the space in Nygean prisons.PARIS: Maybe they commit more crimes.NEELIX: Not according to Joleg, one of the prisoners.TORRES: You think he was given a harsher sentence because of his species?NEELIX: According to this, Benkarans are ten times more likely to be executed for their crimes than Nygeans.TORRES: Where'd you get that?NEELIX: I contacted the Nygean government. Told them I was interested in a cultural exchange. Among other things, they let me access data on their criminal justice system. It all supports what Joleg told me.

NEELIX: What about the criminals that didn't serve any sentence at all?JOLEG: Some people prefer restitution to revenge. If a defendant is wealthy enough, he can negotiate a settlement with the victim's family.NEELIX: Oh, that doesn't seem fair.JOLEG: It's perfectly fair, unless you're destitute.

And then the episode makes it so the Benkaran prisoner was just an opportunist who was using/tricking Neelix???Voyager! What. The. Fuck? Are you doING?? Way to ruin a good episode by being like "maybe the minority who's disproportionately arrested and given harsh punishments _are_ just bad people."

This is the episode with the holodeck program about a maquis mutiny. I think it's just the right time to do a story like this, since it's been about a year since there were any tensions between the two sides of the crew.#StarTrek #Voyager

The phaser rifles in Voyager's first 3 seasons are weird looking.
