Star Trek memes and shitposts
Come on'n get your jamaharon on! There are no real rules—just don't break the weather control network.
The other communities have rules, so you have to be careful about what you post, but here we can just talk about anything. So I don't subscribe to the strict ones, I just subscribe to the fun one.
Shitpost communities are the only ones that don't take themselves too seriously, and will actually give you some interesting answers without devolving into a flamewar

"None of you belonged on Bajor. It wasn't your world. For fifty years you raped our planet, and you killed our people. You lived on our land, and you took the food out of our mouths, and I don't care whether you held a phaser in your hand or you ironed shirts for a living. You were all guilty and you were all legitimate targets!"
"That's what makes you a murderer. Indiscriminate killing… no sense of morality… no thought given to the consequences of your action. That's what makes us different."
"I was a soldier! You're just a bitter old man out for revenge."
"I am bringing the guilty to justice. And unlike you, I take care to protect the innocent."

Though I must confess that I am skeptical about scenes like this. In my opinion, DS9 often comes dangerously close to glorifying terrorism, which might have had a more positive reputation in the U.S. in the light of the Soviet defeat in Afghanistan, however, little did they know that they themselves would become the occupiers from the perspective of many people, especially in the Arab world. I doubt that DS9 would have approached terrorism the way it did if it would have been made after 9/11.
Probably not after 9/11 no. But I'm glad the discussion of freedom fighter / terrorist happened while it could. They really dived into both sides of the coin with the Maki, Cardassian, Maki border colonies, Bajor, etc.

I disagree that kira was indiscriminate, she wasn't randomly killing any being. "I don't like where you draw your line, so I'm going to accuse you of having no line" is a fallacious argument.
Prin was not a objective observor. If memory serves he was a housekeeper who was disfigured in an attack kira carried out
