- 23:56than
- 23:56I
- 23:56did?
- 23:58Well,
- 23:58Starfleet
- 23:59mostly
- 24:00is
- 24:00this
- 24:00Federation
- 24:00of
- 24:01planets
- 24:01where
- 24:01people
- 24:02just
- 24:02want
- 24:02to
- 24:02be
- 24:03at
- 24:03peace
- 24:04so
- 24:04they
- 24:04find
- 24:05a
- 24:05way
- 24:05to
- 24:05govern
- 24:06where
- 24:06everybody
- 24:07has
- 24:07kind
- 24:07of
- 24:07like
- 24:07an
- 24:08equal
- 24:08say,
- 24:08everybody's
- 24:09going
- 24:09to
- 24:09be
- 24:09respected.
- 24:10There's
- 24:11the
- 24:12idea
- 24:13of
- 24:13basically
- 24:14respecting
- 24:15the
- 24:15individual,
- 24:16but
- 24:16also
- 24:17just
- 24:17having
- 24:17the
- 24:18freedom
- 24:18of
- 24:19self
- 24:19rule.
- 24:20Like
- 24:20every,
- 24:21every
- 24:21planet
- 24:22in
- 24:22the
- 24:22Federation
- 24:22of
- 24:22Planets
- 24:23has
- 24:23its
- 24:24own
- 24:24government
- 24:25and
- 24:25the
- 24:26Federation
- 24:26that
- 24:27kind
- 24:27of
- 24:27binds
- 24:28all
- 24:28of
- 24:28these
- 24:28governments
- 24:29together
- 24:29kind
- 24:30of
- 24:30just
- 24:30deals
- 24:30with
- 24:30the,
- 24:31the
- 24:31affairs
- 24:32of
- 24:33the
- 24:33coalition
- 24:33as
- 24:33a
- 24:34whole.
- 24:34Also
- 24:35it's
- 24:35very
- 24:35idealized
- 24:36future
- 24:37where
- 24:38things
- 24:38like
- 24:38money
- 24:39don't
- 24:39exist.
- 24:42There's
- 24:42the
- 24:42idea
- 24:43that
- 24:43we
- 24:43don't
- 24:43have
- 24:44this
- 24:44scarcity
- 24:44of
- 24:44goods
- 24:45because
- 24:45everything
- 24:45is
- 24:46there
- 24:46for
- 24:46you.
- 24:46And
- 24:47the
- 24:47idea
- 24:47is
- 24:48everybody
- 24:49just
- 24:49does
- 24:50what
- 24:50they
- 24:51feel
- 24:51is
- 24:51right
- 24:52because
- 24:52they
- 24:52don't
- 24:53have
- 24:53to
- 24:53fight
- 24:53and
- 24:53struggle
- 24:54with
- 24:54each
- 24:54other
- 24:55to
- 24:55survive.
- 24:58Okay,
- 24:59so
- 24:59those
- 24:59are
- 24:59our
- 25:00sides.
- 25:00We're
- 25:01going
- 25:01to
- 25:01pick
- 25:01a
- 25:01side
- 25:02and
- 25:02we're
- 25:02going
- 25:02to
- 25:02explain
- 25:02why
- 25:03we
- 25:03chose
- 25:03the
- 25:03side
- 25:03we
- 25:03did.
- 25:03We
- 25:04can
- 25:04all
- 25:04pick
- 25:04the
- 25:04same
- 25:04side
- 25:05if
- 25:06we
- 25:06want.
- 25:07I
- 25:07think
- 25:08it
- 25:08would
- 25:08be
- 25:08dishonest
- 25:08for
- 25:08me
- 25:08not

- 25:09pick
- 25:09Starfleet.

- 32:58Explain
- 32:59why
- 32:59you
- 32:59think
- 32:59someone
- 33:00might
- 33:00be
- 33:00on
- 33:00the
- 33:00side
- 33:00of
- 33:00the
- 33:00Klingons
- 33:01and
- 33:02defend
- 33:02that
- 33:02position
- 33:03the
- 33:03best
- 33:03you
- 33:03can.
- 33:04Well,
- 33:05definitely
- 33:05somebody
- 33:06who
- 33:06comes
- 33:06from
- 33:06a
- 33:06culture
- 33:07that
- 33:07does
- 33:07have
- 33:08either
- 33:09a
- 33:09honor
- 33:09shame
- 33:10or
- 33:10a
- 33:11power
- 33:12weakness
- 33:12type
- 33:12of
- 33:13mentality
- 33:13would
- 33:14probably
- 33:14side
- 33:15with
- 33:15the
- 33:15Klingons
- 33:16because
- 33:16it
- 33:16would
- 33:16be
- 33:17closer
- 33:17to
- 33:17their
- 33:17worldview
- 33:18and
- 33:18the
- 33:18idea
- 33:19that
- 33:19if
- 33:19you

- 33:25So
- 33:25that
- 33:25could
- 33:25be
- 33:26a
- 33:26reason
- 33:26why
- 33:26people
- 33:26might
- 33:27identify

- 33:51think
- 33:52about
- 33:52it.
- 33:53Here's
- 33:53what
- 33:54I'm
- 33:54gonna
- 33:54go
- 33:54with.
- 33:55I
- 33:55feel
- 33:55as
- 33:55though
- 33:56Starfleet
- 33:57was
- 33:57too
- 33:57quick
- 33:57to
- 33:57dismiss
- 33:58the
- 33:58Klingon.
- 33:59Okay,
- 34:00first
- 34:00off,
- 34:00let
- 34:00me
- 34:00say
- 34:00this
- 34:01is
- 34:01not
- 34:01my
- 34:01actual
- 34:01position
- 34:02or
- 34:02argument.
- 34:02This
- 34:03is
- 34:03me
- 34:03trying
- 34:03to
- 34:04make
- 34:04the
- 34:04argument
- 34:04for
- 34:05the
- 34:05other
- 34:05side.
- 34:06So
- 34:07Starfleet
- 34:07was
- 34:07too
- 34:08quick
- 34:08to
- 34:08dismiss
- 34:09the
- 34:09Klingon
- 34:09culture
- 34:10because
- 34:11they.
- 34:11They
- 34:11are
- 34:12so
- 34:12much
- 34:12about
- 34:12peace
- 34:12that
- 34:12they
- 34:13just
- 34:13immediately
- 34:14dismiss
- 34:14this
- 34:15warlike
- 34:16race
- 34:18instead
- 34:19of
- 34:19asking
- 34:20what
- 34:20they
- 34:20could
- 34:20have
- 34:20done
- 34:20is
- 34:21ask,
- 34:21why
- 34:21does
- 34:22this
- 34:22exist?
- 34:22Clearly,
- 34:22the
- 34:23Klingons
- 34:23are
- 34:23thriving.
- 34:24So
- 34:24whatever
- 34:24environment
- 34:25that
- 34:25they
- 34:25came
- 34:26up
- 34:26in,
- 34:27biologically,
- 34:28they
- 34:29evolved
- 34:29to
- 34:29be
- 34:30the
- 34:30dominant
- 34:30species.
- 34:31So
- 34:31it
- 34:31is
- 34:31working
- 34:32for
- 34:32them
- 34:32for
- 34:33some
- 34:33reason.
- 34:34So
- 34:34I
- 34:34think
- 34:34it
- 34:35would
- 34:35have
- 34:35been
- 34:35beneficial
- 34:36instead
- 34:36of
- 34:36just
- 34:36immediately
- 34:37pushing
- 34:37back
- 34:37to
- 34:38maybe
- 34:38observe.
- 34:39See,
- 34:39why
- 34:39is
- 34:39this
- 34:40working
- 34:40here?
- 34:40What
- 34:40can
- 34:40we
- 34:41learn
- 34:41from
- 34:41being
- 34:42more
- 34:42aggressive
- 34:42or
- 34:42having
- 34:43some
- 34:43of
- 34:43these
- 34:44attributes
- 34:45perhaps?
- 34:47And,
- 34:47you
- 34:47know,
- 34:47even
- 34:48learning
- 34:48from
- 34:49like,
- 34:49shame
- 34:49isn't
- 34:50always
- 34:50a
- 34:50bad
- 34:50thing.
- 34:51Maybe
- 34:51our
- 34:51culture
- 34:51shouldn't
- 34:52revolve
- 34:52around
- 34:52an
- 34:52honor
- 34:53shame
- 34:53system.
- 34:54But
- 34:54we
- 34:54do
- 34:54know,
- 34:55evolutionary,
- 34:55you
- 34:55know,
- 34:56kind
- 34:56of

- 34:58Let
- 34:58me,
- 34:58let
- 34:58me
- 34:59specifically
- 34:59say

- 35:06we
- 35:06have.
- 35:07And
- 35:07I
- 35:08let
- 35:09me
- 35:09asterisk.
- 35:10No
- 35:11one
- 35:11here
- 35:11supports

- 35:25which
- 35:26maybe
- 35:26isn't
- 35:26a
- 35:26great
- 35:27thing,
- 35:27but
- 35:27there
- 35:27might
- 35:27still
- 35:28be
- 35:28something
- 35:28to

- 36:42or
- 36:43stuff
- 36:43like
- 36:44that.
- 36:44I
- 36:45think
- 36:45that's
- 36:45beneficial
- 36:46so
- 36:46that
- 36:46you
- 36:46know
- 36:47who

- 36:53degree.
- 36:55And
- 36:55having
- 36:55those
- 36:56honorifics
- 36:56allow
- 36:57us
- 36:57to

- 36:58who
- 36:58to
- 36:58respect.
- 36:59And
- 36:59I
- 36:59think
- 36:59that's
- 37:00useful.
- 37:01I
- 37:01just
- 37:01don't
- 37:01think
- 37:01our
- 37:02culture
- 37:02should
- 37:02necessarily
- 37:02be
- 37:03based
- 37:03off
- 37:03of
- 37:03it.
- 37:04So
- 37:04I'm
- 37:04going
- 37:04to
- 37:04pull
- 37:05the
- 37:05Starfleet.
- 37:06We
- 37:06respect
- 37:06all
- 37:07people.
- 37:07But
- 37:07I
- 37:08think
- 37:08Klingon
- 37:08has
- 37:08a
- 37:09good
- 37:09point
- 37:10with,
- 37:10hey,

- 37:17pulling
- 37:17from
- 37:18all
- 37:18these
- 37:18that's
- 37:18useful
- 37:19in
- 37:19real
- 37:19life,

- 37:20three
- 37:21geeks
- 37:21being
- 37:22dumb?
- 37:26I

- 37:33who's
- 37:33very
- 37:33different
- 37:33from
- 37:33me
- 37:34is
- 37:34always
- 37:35worthwhile.
- 37:37It
- 37:37works
- 37:37better
- 37:38when
- 37:38those
- 37:38people
- 37:39are
- 37:40accurately
- 37:41represented.
- 37:42Right.
- 37:43And

- 37:44you
- 37:44know,
- 37:45to
- 37:45the
- 37:45extent
- 37:45that
- 37:46Klingons
- 37:47accurately
- 37:47represent
- 37:48any
- 37:48actual,
- 37:49you
- 37:49know,
- 37:49human
- 37:49groups
- 37:50that
- 37:50can
- 37:50be
- 37:51worthwhile,
- 37:51to
- 37:51the
- 37:51extent
- 37:51that
- 37:52they
- 37:52are
- 37:52parodies
- 37:53or
- 37:53caricatures
- 37:54or,
- 37:54you
- 37:55know,
- 37:55perpetuate
- 37:55misunderstandings
- 37:56of
- 37:57other
- 37:57groups
- 37:58that
- 37:58we
- 37:58might
- 37:58map
- 37:58them
- 37:58onto,
- 37:59maybe

- 40:44and
- 40:44so
- 40:44forth.
- 40:45Whereas

- 41:48fraud
- 41:48and
- 41:49so
- 41:49forth.
- 41:49I
- 41:49think
- 41:50a
- 41:50large
- 41:51portion
- 41:52of
- 41:52Americans
- 41:53would
- 41:53agree

- 41:54on
- 41:55fraud
- 41:55is
- 41:56a
- 41:56good
- 41:56idea,
- 41:56that
- 41:57eliminating

- 41:58if
- 41:59it's
- 41:59true,
- 42:00you

- 42:02is
- 42:03worthwhile.
- 42:05It's
- 42:06just
- 42:06that
- 42:06we
- 42:06have
- 42:06very
- 42:07different

- 42:15and
- 42:15so
- 42:15forth.
- 42:16But
- 42:17I
- 42:17think
- 42:17we
- 42:18can
- 42:18find
- 42:18common
- 42:18ground
- 42:19on.
- 42:19Yeah,
