I bet if the kind of things happening in the US happened in China, I wouldn’t be able to stop hearing about it. I mean, people are still criticizing the Tiananmen Square massacre, and hasn’t anything happened since then? It’s like still making conspiracy theories about Kennedy’s assassination or 9/11, those are old news.
No, I haven’t blocked any Star Trek specific communities (unless they are on the .ml, .grad, or hexbear instances). I only have seen the TenForward community in any regularity. But I do realize a sizable amount of Lemmy users are also Trekkies. Its just that the other demographics are larger, so I left Trek out.
Young people are into Star Trek, but usually only because their parents were cool enough to introduce them to it.
