      No one except MisterMoo: “I will never upvote a meme that includes “No one”.”

      Well probably not no one but that’s a weirdly specific peeve so probably a pretty small club.

      I think it’s funny sometimes because society will periodically get really enthusiastic about responding to ideas nobody’s actually thinking or saying.

      Can’t be expected to deprogram their hunting instinct quickly, so throw 'em into a simulation. Makes sense, if not for the live/brainwashed “prey” being used. He certainly planned to do away with living subjects once they had the holodeck tech themselves.

          Ambassador Mollari, soon to be Emperor at this point in the show, and Citizen G’Kar. They’re almost frenemies by the time G’Kar delivers that line

          Babylon 5 Season 5 episode 1, IIRC

              Well, I mean, at that point in the show please show me an alien main character that wouldn’t be brought up on war crimes? Even Delen is a war criminal because of literally causing The Earth Minbari War because of the death of Dukhat. Even G’Kar openly admits that he committed war crimes prior to the events of Babylon 5.

    I had a roommate once who would turn on the Nazi … I mean The History Channel on every night to fall asleep to, so I would come home to 365 days of Nazi tv, which was upsetting. He couldn’t see the problem. I found another place to live.

    This is perfect timing, I was just watching Quinton Reviews’ video on the “downfall” of the History Channel. Highly recommend the video, dude’s great at media analysis.
