😁 That was one of two scenes that came to mind
Alright, backtrack to base program and make it optional for either program (EMH or ECH) to be able to extend/retract leg length as needed. As a doctor, this could be useful in situations where there is no operating table to extreme heights, and as an ECH, when one must tower over another.
The latter issue should resolve itself, but the former issue seems to be a persistent personality trait. 😄
No, just an upgrade in his programming: EMH -> ECH -> EHGH (Emergency (or automatic) High Ground Hologram)
His excuse (in retrospect) was “Alien technology did this to me, so how can I refuse?!” 😄 Plus, the mass surveillance existed on the ship before him and all crew members seem to be fine with that when signing on. Given who he was before and during the event in question probably caused a few people, like Deanna, to ask Geordi to do in her quarters what he did in the conference room for privacy.
Reginald Broccoli Barclay approves this position
Kaiju, dragons, starships, Rifts power armor, uh…space monsters/interdimensional mutants…others TBC 😅 /s

I wholeheartedly agree about fighting back. As someone who was bullied when younger, I fought back and hard. It didn’t stop the bullying, but it certainly got some of the bullies to think twice, so that I wasn’t fighting all the bullies at once.
And therein lies another problem; you fight one authoritarian government and maybe succeed in removing it, but then you’re fighting other foreign ones waiting on the sidelines, just ready to swoop in. It’s not looking good for any of the good guys at this point…
I know this will not come as any form of consolation, but those (who conceive of themselves as the elites) who try to do away with so-called “undersirables”, the line doesn’t stop, they are always trying to cull. At some point, the sycophants get on the chopping block too. The question becomes where is the line drawn that everyone (in and out of the direct line of fire) collectively rises up and pushes back to drive the oppressors into oblivion. Right now it seems the majority of the citizenry are in shock as to the continual actions and revelations coming about, and hence very cautious about stepping forward hard. The tipping point could be something seemingly innocuous, or the culmination of enough is enough. Time and disaster will only tell.
A thought to ponder: which comes first - civil war or bilateral war with China? Seems like the administration is angling to as early as 2027 for outright warfare, so civil war would be a liability. All these people being deported and/or sent to prisons, might be a prelude to that escalation. Imagine the only salvation you have to leave prison or to make steps towards some form of citizenship is by participating in military service for that very conflict.
“may lead people to fight in self defense.” - That’s what they’re (the administration and police forces) hoping for: “proof” that substantiates the action they are undertaking, which they can then turn around and escalate even more.
Great minds think alike (https://lemmy.ca/comment/16584217); was the first thing that came to mind when I saw the title.

Ooo, maybe they’ll release a figurine of “God”, St. John Talbot or that cat dancer for wave 3! :-P
Now that I think about it, they’ll probably release sand dune dancing Uhura or Marsh Mellon camping Spock.
