Autonomous

He also plays a character on Babylon 5 with a not unsimilar backstory.

This is the future Section 31 wants.

He doesn’t, he works for Paramount.

“a language built upon metaphors and allegories, in which Tamarians Trekians cite incidents from their cultural history, to communicate the emotions they feel, their perceptions of situations, and their wishes and opinions about actions.”

Didn’t even know he had a child each time either, they just showed up on his doorstep as orphaned children without any fucking warning.

Except that wasn’t Bashir and rather than find it suspicious he let his guard down.

Maybe of there was a 8th season there would have been time, but they were running out at that point.

He still did better than Sisko by not poisoning entire planets for personal vendetta, and Starfleet was fine with that.

Also, Section 31 has apparently been around for 300 years at this point, so Roddenberry’s utopia arguably never existed.

Randy Oglesby would meet the criteria and be a Xindi at the same time.

He’s programmed to be fascinated with humanity and be compelled to strive for finding it at all opportunity. His father was (criminally, but still) brilliant.

All the things he does make sense in light of the fact he was designed for that purpose.

I’s insulting to his father’s intelligence and passion to think he would not constantly be learning and experimenting to grow himself as he was designed. To achieve the human experience.

He’s not a bloody robot.

Turd caught in the filter intake: Neelix

Pretty sure Rom’s actor was in almost ever Ferengi episode of TNG.

It comes in handy sometimes!

He was just doing what the federation asked of him. He got promoted after all, instead of punished.

Anything less is collaboration.

They would immediately form a treaty to avoid conflict, even if it cost lives.

If anyone formed their own independent rebellion to stop the pirates, Starfleet would poison the planets their bases were on to avoid breaking that treaty

Starfleet: “Peace at any cost.”
