But then she cozies up to the star fleet counter revolution and romances the collaborationist law enforcement officer.

She took her time with Odo, but overall he was defended by those imprisoned in Terok Nor. Something about being the only impartial judge. Still problematic, but the provisional government arrested basically all the other collaborators so the Bajorans must have been okay with Odo's actions

So I guess it was easier for her to forgive him

It's interesting that Odo was the autistic absolutist character of ds9, much like Data, Seven of Nine, T'Pol, Spock, Elnor, and Tilly.

They all (Except maybe Tilly) start with belligerent, absolutist puritan takes, hostile to all that oppose, and as they grow and learn and mature, they realize how complex things really are, for themselves, politics, and each and every other person. Many ST characters are like this, but there's always one main difficult autistic coded character. And they're never truly the enemy, but it would be too easy to write them off as such.

In other words, they slowly learn empathy from those around them who perpetually teach and give them grace.

I lost some respect for her when she wouldn't try to convince the Bajoran Provisional Government to allow Skrreean refugees to settle on Bajor.

I never liked her.

I'm still waiting for the Garak Show, all Garak all the time

[-] CapuccinoCoretto@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago

I always loved her and I'm still waiting for the Garak show.

[-] SCmSTR@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 3 hours ago

I recently watched Hellraiser for the first time. Seeing a skinless Garak was very unexpected.

I've read Garak Show but my mind went somewhere else.

The Cardassians (and Founders) were both defeated (eventually).

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. Use spoiler tags in comments, and NSFW checkbox for posts.
This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
