William Shatner has Shakespearean blood as well, as does Avery Brooks who played the indomitable Captain Benjamin Sisko in DS9. Listen to all three actors' line and speech deliveries in their Star Trek roles and you can't help but be captivated even if you disagree with whatever they say. William Shakespeare, ye olde scribe! You poured the honey into the English language and centuries later we still crave the honeycomb for more!

@@remainprofane7732 Generally people who strive for positions of power (as all politicians do) do so for selfish reasons. They enjoy having power over others and using this power for their own benefit. Morally principled leaders like Piccard exist in fiction only because if you look at history, powerful leaders either lied or killed their way to the top.

There is nothing I want less than to tell other people what to do, nor what to think. The only thing I'm comfortable with is teaching others HOW to think and that is a grave responsibility. By "how to think" I mean teaching logic, research skills, critical analysis of text, reading of schematics, arithmetic, algebra, and calculus, chem/phys/bio, ethics, morality. I grew up watching TNG, It definitely helped form my ideas about society and responsibility.

Dunno - judging by the amounts of comments from people - the kinds of people who Picard is criticizing directly, no less - turning around and applying these criticisms to their critics without any hint of irony... I don't think it ever had the power to make mankind better. If it made you better, the potential for it was already inside you - you just needed the spark to ignite that passion for being a better person. Seriously, this comment section is disappointing - the amount of conservatives projecting their politics onto Picard despite the fact that he is criticizing the conservatives of the time the show aired is depressing. Even to the point where they bash Patrick Stewart himself.

Picard tells Kurn he has cases of actual caviar, from the caspian sea on earth, (not replicated). Picard also has fish in his ready room, ( they could be holographic.) His brother, on earth does not own a replicator, yet, we're not told what his family eats. Riker cooks Worf and others actual, (not replicated,) eggs on the enterprise. O’Brian’s mother used to cook real meat. In “The Wounded” O’Brien mentions to Keiko that his mother used to cook scalloped potatoes, mutton shanks, oxtails and cabbage. He remarks that he “…still remembers the aromas when [his] mother was cooking…”Keiko, with a countenance of mild disgust, asks “She handled… real meat… touched it and cut it?” O’Brian replies “Like a chef. She was fantastic. Of course, I’ll have to use the replicator…” Are we supposed to assume that humans stopped eating meat within O'Brian's lifetime?

As a child, Picards lessons were the moral compass that I drew upon. Each story taught me something new and gave me clear codes of ethics to live by. It helped to balance me politically and philosophically. It kept me from falling to the easy urgings of either side of the political map and gave me clear principals to live by. This, I posit, is the true strength of Star Trek TNG, and why it is my favorite hands down. Sometimes, when I face a moral conundrum, I consult a relevant episode of Star Trek and consider what Picard did in that situation.

Knowing the importance of discipline without being mindlessly robotic. Strict yet humoured. A combination of excellent writing and Patrick "THERE ARE 4 LIGHTS!!!" Stewart's acting genius.

The chief reasons we don't have more leaders like Picard are power and greed.

While doing so, they willingly sell their souls in pursuit of those puny rewards. Such rewards create irrevocable collateral damages in the form of the innocent people they claim to serve. THIS is the price WE ALL pay for their power and pursuits.

the overt destruction of established lore and characters to meet specific diversity quotas, snarky and disrespectful (not to mention entirely unrealistic) crew interactions and for some reason, rather than focus on inclusivity as Trek always did, actively alienating a specific demo to pander to the rest. Essentially, less overt/blatant virtue signaling with tropes and more along the lines of rationalizing of and proper reasoning of the values they would seek to inspire in people. Star Trek accomplished a lot of social progress in it's day by imploring logic and rationale... and some really good writing i might ad, to invite everyone to the same table... not the sjw trek of today which is actively lecturing and alienating swaths of its audience today. Old Trek invited EVERYONE to the table. Modern trek (little t for a reason) kicks people out so it can bring in the few, all while completely destroying epic timelines and characters for lack luster rehashes. Discovery...

If you like the characters the way they used to be written then watch the old shows because they will never change. Just like yourself.

TNG was the height of Star Trek. Some of the moral and ethical challenges they dared to take on will help it stand the test of time. This show was meant to be the shining beacon on the hill, the promise of what we could be if we could rise above what we are now. And the character of Picard was a wonderful way of showing how patience and wisdom could strength. I hope someday we will have enough optimism for our own future that we can believe this could be it again.

Toa Tahu He also supports equality for all. Equality of wealth, status and everything. Also, he really doesn't like patriotism. Picard would not like conservatives at all. In fact, conservatives are always shown in a bad light in Star Trek. They are never tried to be portrayed as heroes or good people. In one episode, a conservative was literally gonna kill himself just to start a war with the federation, or at the very least have Riker killed, because he didn't like progress. Picard also really doesn't like religion. He stands against everything conservatives stand for. Like he said, villains that twirl their mustaches are easy to spot. Those who clothe themselves in good deeds are well camouflaged. Just like conservatives acting like they fight for free speech, while at the same time seeking to silence all opposing voices. Star Trek is a communist utopia that does not have poverty or inequality, like capitalist society today.

Makes me think of another one of Picard's observations "Can anyone remember when we used to be explorers...?" It's sad how even Star Trek has started abandoning those ideals. They seem to focus more on "how we got there" rather than that future itself. Even in the future of TNG/DS9/Voy, things seem bleak. Temporal cold war, corruption, the Federation developing more and more into a military fascist power etc. Why do they keep focusing on all the negative stuff in Star Trek anymore? Because that's the zeitgeist. People don't want happy touchy feely anymore, but strife and hardship. Of course... what nobody is getting is that you CAN have both. TNG had it every week! In other words, we need a new (obviously modernized since the 80s) TNG-like Star Trek show. Where the people are actually happy and full of hope in-between the weekly mortal peril.

That's one of the most frustrating things about the new show. Michael Chabon claims to have been a fan of TNG since day one. He claims to have watched all the episodes and knows the character inside out. But watching the actual show, you have to wonder if that's even true. I mean, I can understand people changing over 20 years. But the show goes so far in the other direction that it's unbelievable. It's as if they wanted to tear him down. It was such sloppy writing. They built him up as a myth just to tear him down, when there was no reason to do either one of those things. That's amateur writing. The other thing is when the show was first announced, they kept talking about the need for Captain Picard's positivity in today's world. Positivity became their mantra. But then when the actual show came out, where was the positivity? You had a whole bunch of people tearing Captain Picard down, you had a whole bunch of women yelling at him, you had people constantly belittling him, and you had him with a crisis of confidence. And worst of all, he always hesitated when the real Captain Picard would seize the moment and lead. He would never ask "what do we do?" in a crisis situation. Even if the ship belonged to Rios, he still would have had his command since kick in and he would have said "Suggestions?" The show was such a good opportunity to explore his character later in life, and instead they opted for character assassination. It's just a damn shame.

I guess you got it backwards. In advocating for the weak, you just rid them of their own voices even further. Give a man fish, and he'll eat for a day. Teach a man how to fish, and he'll never go hungry. Instead of playing advocate, ally, or whatever moral busybodies call it these days, just teach them how to explore and determine their true needs, how to speak up for themselves, and how to communicate said needs, WITHOUT planting any ideas that you deem fit to be there. If you determine their needs, or believe to know them already, all you teach them is to stand behind you, trust your judgement (even if you've just been told by your moral superiors yourself), and never dare to think for themselves.
