. No matter how intelligent a person is, they can still make the simplest mistakes for their entire lives, because they stick by of what they’ve learned and die on that hill.

. Black holes will be proven to not exist. And in the list of cosmological errors, that’s the most obvious one. [edit] What people are observing, at least for the “stellar sized black holes”, are UV/X-ray/Gamma ray stars, much like there are red stars and blue stars. [/edit]

. For what it implies, Star Trek is far more evil than Star Wars despite all the anti-war rhetoric and perpetual war of the latter, as the former implies “Marx was wrong, Fourier was right. We CAN have a socialist utopia quietly evolved from an empire that began as a group of slave owners on stolen land with the flag of an oligarchic spice and slave trade corporation, who decided that a small sales tax, where most countries have VAT, on a single good, one that turns hot water into a tasty drink, was theft and so they decided that “this means war” and called for independence. Then a few decades later they created a manifesto saying that half the continent and more is simply theirs because they’re so exceptional. The empire with the two-party system to ensure the purest form of kleptocracy, an ingenious way to silence dissent and perpetual struggle, moreso than any dictatorship empire has tried in the past.
The continuation of THIS empire, the empire of deception, is the one taking over the galaxy, destined to seize the entire universe because they’re so enlightened as said by one of the gods in the Star Trek universe.” And no, STD and Picard doesn’t do it any justice. Star Trek doesn’t tell why the Federation is or isn’t progressive. At least Star Wars explained how the Republic collapsed as a queen appointed a harebrained mudskipper to be her representitive in case she was absent, who then got manipulated into giving a tyrant unchecked power.
