i am a strong believer in all levels of trek fandom
never seen an episode of TOS, but want to dress up like Uhura because it’s sexy and badass? PLEASE DO, I wish I had your confidence
want to have an hour long debate on the different captain’s adherence to the prime directive? count me in
want to right a 100k self insert of tarsus iv? DO IT, don’t listen a single word about “mary sues,” or any of that bullshit
want to watch the show and not participate in any of this madness? you are probably the smart one in this situation
lets welcome all levels of fans, no gate keeping necessary
Considering that the core message throughout all series of Star Trek had always been inclusion in one way or another, being a gatekeeper in the Star Trek fandom is really the most ridiculous paradox imaginable.
