Comment on The horrible morals of a show supposed to teach them

Some things were like that. There was also Sisko using bioweapons for a personal vendetta, Odo not fitting in and constantly trying to go with the changelings who are a group of fascist racist violent manipulators, etc.

I’m pointing out the problems that for me are important whether or not other parts are not as bad, or even good. DS9 had good surprises, for example the evolution of Rom and Nog.

I haven’t seen DS9 since the first run I don’t think, so my memory is hazy, but did the show make those things “good things” or were they flaws in the characters?

  Sisko was shown as “morally dubious but the end justifies the means” as in the end no one even scolds him for basically destroying a planet, and Odo was shown as “poor lonely changeling who wants to find his origins” and everyone forgives him no matter how much shit he does, because “they are my people” or something.
