Next time there's an insurrection, Capitol Police should shoot to kill all of the insurrectionists immediately because that's the only way to get justice.
Fuck, the reason why everyone in Star Trek only consume old music or movies from the 20th century is because that's the last media before AI slop took over. You never see 24th century media in Star Trek because it's probably all just brain rotted slop. Have you seen the doctor's holonovel?!
