“He despised you, and everything you stand for,” he adds
It’s been a long road, getting from there to here
Westley Crusher: “Shut up, Stephen!”
“Stephen Miller, on behalf of Star Trek, and everyone who knew and loved him, keep my Captain’s name out of your f–king Nazi mouth,” he wrote. “He despised you, and everything you stand for.”
Wil Wheaton being awesome as usual.
Carry on!
Wil is the fucking man, Patrick Stewart would be proud
Stephen miller should just not talk at all
Stephen Miller should just not breathe at all.
I like this option.
The Romans had a method for that. We just need pair of tongs and a white hot knife, may as well go all the way too and take his junk and eyes.
would genuinely be productive. make the image of Nazism weakness, victimhood, maimed bodies and weeping.
“To the pain”
“I can’t say that I’m familiar with that term”
Why even cauterize it? Let him bleed.
The longer he suffers the better it gets. Don’t want him choking to death on his own blood - better to make sure he lives a long, horrible, miserable, mutilated life.
Humiliation. Let him wallow in it.
Breathe at all.
Not that either.
I would expect that the Democrats are going to be holding quite a few Congressional investigations in the next two years and that he is going to have to be answering quite a few questions in front of Congress for them.
Lol. No. They’ll sweep it all under the rug in the name of “national healing” or some such nonsense. It’s what always happens.
Nah, Democrats are going to be out for blood. They know their based elected them to go after the Trump administration, and investigations are the main lever of power that they have if they have Congress but not the presidency. Where they’re going to run into problems getting to someone like Miller is executive privilege. Anyone vaguely close to the president is going to claim executive privilege, it goes to the courts, and then the Trump administration just tries to run out the clock.
History says no, they won’t. This is the same gaping wound from the civil war - the problem with the country has never been fixed. And that is that a lot of people in the country think they’re more worthy than other to be classified as human.
Oh all the Trump ghouls, Miller is the one that I would fear the most. Far to cold and calculating in how he can inflict the most pain on others.
As the old Frank Zappa line went “They look after no 1, you ain’t even no 2.”
Miller is too obvious. He smells Nazi from a mile away. Not dangerous to anybody with a modicum of common sense.
The real danger is that slick slimeball JD Vance. The only saving grace with him is that he has the charisma of an open hemorrhoid.
If anyone had told me in the 90’s that I would end up deeply admiring Westley Crusher and considering him one of my heroes, I would never have believed it.
In fairness, it’s not new. Wil Wheaton has always been awesome. But this confirms his awesomeness.
The hate for Wil Wheaton has never been warranted. He was a child. He had nothing to do with the writing of his character (wish fulfilment Mary Sue / Marty Stu type of character for Gene Roddenberry).
I’ve been a fan of Wil since before I started watching Star Trek TNG as a kid, when I saw him in Stand By Me. Later in life I learned that he was a nerd, and was “one of us” much more than the other Trek actors. There’s really so much to love about the guy that at this point if you hate him it’s on you, not him.
His dice do NOT roll nat-20s, lol, not unless the goal is to roll low
I was one of the few that never understood the hate. I liked his character and think he’s a fantastic actor.
The early hate was just in the period where TNG was trying to figure itself out, and if you couldn’t relate to Wesley in some way, you hated him for his part. But it got better, and the show needed that age representative.
To be fair, the first season TNG is a little unsteady on its feet. For instance, Picard was depicted as being a lot more stubborn and rigid in his ways but ended up with a lot more nuance after a little bit.
Probably the first time I really understood a little bit of the hate was when I watched Galaxy Quest and their parody of him was a little child. It’s just a little bit out-of-odds with the setting that there’s this goofy kid there all the time.
I didn’t like or dislike the character. I just found the Westley Crusher side arcs of zero interest and basically time wasters.
As in, I watched Star Trek to watch, ya know, star treks - space stuff, aliens, adventure at the frontier of the know universe and crazy science fiction. I didn’t watch Star Trek to watch a teenager come of age: I already had one at home.
I grew up on the original Star Trek. It probably shaped my expectations.
I found him annoying in the first 1-2 seasons of TNG but that wasn’t helped by him being classed as a bit of a nuisance. Not helped by Picard not knowing how to deal with him either. Picard was probably better with the younger kids than an adolescent. And as a 10yo with a father the same age as Picard (or at least Patrick Stewart), the similarities between their “styles” felt like a reflection on my life at the time.
The fact I didn’t like Wesley probably means I didn’t really like myself either thinking about it but that’s a problem for me and my therapist, Dr. Shiraz.
Fair, I wasn’t really into the alien dignitary on an diplomatic mission to talk about shit the entire episode. I also loved the high concept sci-fi stuff. But I didn’t think blaming the actor for episodes that aren’t the best was the way to go about it.
This shit cause deep issues for him. Fucked hum up pretty bad.
But I didn’t think blaming the actor for episodes that aren’t the best was the way to go about it.
Oh yeah clearly. I didn’t care much for Westley Crusher, but I had nothing against Wil Wheaton. In fact, I knew nothing about him until he became an adult and I realized he had interesting shit to say.
But clearly he’s not responsible for Westley Crusher anymore than Jon Paul Steuer was responsible for the equally-annoying Alexander Rozhenko character.
I liked him, too. There’s probably dozens of us!
The people heading him we about the same age and jealous
Yep. Whill Wheaton has always been a pretty stand-up guy.

Would you like some coo whip for your pie?

Yeah, that’s fair. Stephen Miller should keep everything else out of his filthy Nazi mouth too, including atmospheric air.
Go on, Stephen: Hold you breath until we start liking your Nazi ass.
his equally demented wife says hes a “matador” in bed.
That would be similar to Hitlers last act of heroism before dying after living as the villain.
You have to hand it to Hitler, at least he killed Hitler!
Hey Stephen, hold your breath… trans people have breathed that air before you. ;)
Surprising how much still fits with Trump’s dick in there.
Or maybe not, maybe there’s a functional reason he wanted kids
According to Stormy, it doesn’t need mush room.
DON’T shut up, Wesley!
Good. More. Bring public shaming back until these cretins scurry back under their rocks.
This one pisses me off. A lot.
“Keep talking, Westley.”
Wil Wheaton is the man. He should be on Lemmy. He was on Reddit, and we’d love him even more here.
He was on Reddit
And he was on Slashdot before that.
He was on mastodon too, but I think he left.
he joined a tabletop focused instance that didn’t hold dear the types of treating eachother better ethos most of us here on the fediverse hold dear, so his first impressions of the fediverse was getting bullied by a bunch of nazis. it’s kind of not a surprise he hasn’t been able to recover from that experience, even if it’s not really a typical one
And Fark!
So that’s who Cowboy Neal is!
Fucking legend.
Love this man. Been enjoying his It’s Story Time with Wil Wheaton podcast. He makes little audio books out of short science fiction stories by lesser known authors.
I loved his reading of Ready Player Two
Yes, Wil! Haha, yes!
I don’t think Will could beat up many guys, but I believe Will could beat the shit out of Miller.
Where there’s a Wil there’s a way.
*Wil
But otherwise, yes, you are correct.
Wil you leave the poor guy alone, and Wil you stop correcting minor mistakes.
