This is conjecture as there are continuing anti-war protests in Israel by a number of different actors and groups, e.g.:

In May 2024, 1,400 academics signed a petition calling for an end to the war Israel–Hamas war protests in Israel, Wikipedia

In my opinion, the way you phrase your comment crosses into antisemitic narratives as the comment implies (at least in my reading) that all the people protesting are anti Palestine. Please note I’m not saying that you are in any way antisemitic. It just irks me how that comment is phrased

“Without the return of the hostages we will not be able to end the war, we will not be able to rehabilitate ourselves as a society,” Ron Tomer, president of the Manufacturers’ Association of Israel. Te me, “Rehabilitation” implies a level of dissent with Netanyahu’s actions.

That’s upsetting. Thank you.

And now he’s considered “perhaps the most important person in Starfleet history” (and one of my favorite characters in all of Trek)

Not directly related but: I’m rewatching TNG and it’s so fun to see the character of Miles O'Brien emerge. Just through the sheer charisma of Colm Meaney.

I also think Chapel is very good at her job, but nurse and doctor are two different career paths. You don’t graduate being a nurse by becoming a doctor.

I don’t recognize Chaotic Evil and Neutral Good, can somebody enlighten me?

I really enjoyed despising Kai Winn. She’s such a broken character, always choosing the wrong side and still being completely convinced that her way is without alternative.

Still, I had some level of empathy with her (the gods she, in a way dedicated her love to, never chose her, never spoke to her and when she finally received visions, it was demons deceiving her). Fletchers performance is just the best.

Thank you for the update! Our trusty bot over at c/greatestgen had no issues and is still posting the most embarrassing episodes (so all of them) of The Greatest Generation and The Greatest Trek.

As someone whose dissertation is on conspiracy theories, I gotta say: The writers did a great job at essentially summarizing the current literature:

“I thought you were just a paranoid anxiety made up by people who needed an imagined enemy to simulate order on unrelated disasters so life doesn't feel so random and chaotic!” (Boimler, S04E08)
