My poor Worf.
Gotta be the GOAT character in all of Trek. The roar pierced my soul.
DS9 has now passed TNG in my heart.
Is this the community for this post?
EDIT: wow guys. I meant E26. 24 episode format got my head mashed. Times Orphan is awful. I meant the finale! (No spoilers!)
Original post title for reference was “ First time DS9… just finished S6E24” — when I meant to reference Tears of the Prophets.
TNG covered the same situation with the Sheliak in the episode Ensigns of Command. Data convinced the colonists it was just land, which wasn’t worth dying over. They could move.
Why not? We are shown people escaping to different planets almost every episode. They didn’t have to send her to her death.
O’Brien is shown to make selfish decisions in this episode and you claim I need a therapist. Simultaneously you imagine the Federation, despite what is shown in TNG, as an evil child torturing organization and you think yourself normal.
You have no argument so you resort to personal attacks.

It’s Cardassian land. The Maqui weren’t born on those planets. They had only lived there at most 20 years. I have T-shirts older than 20 years. They moved to those border planets and then fought Cardassians who tried to forcibly remove them. If it were the Sheliak, they would have been bombarded from space because the Sheliak considered humans vermin.
The Maqui were trying to pull another Texas. US Colonists moved into disputed territory, fought the Mexican government after it was clearly Mexican territory and then cried to the US for help when things went bad. But the Federation wasn’t like 1830’s manifest destiny USA.
It’s the same in Ukraine. Russians citizens moved to Ukraine. After a few years they started a resistance to fight against Ukraine so that the Ukrainian cities they moved into could become Russian. Russia then moved in to support them.
The Federation, by not backing the Maqui, were showing they weren’t imperialist expansionists like the US was in the 1800’s and Russia is today.
Wow.
