Makes a game about beating the shit out of people
Complains about offences to public order and morals

The internet, as experienced by most humans today, primarily consists of ads, sponsored content, propaganda and spin. I don't really see how it's contributing to our development in a constructive manner.
Am I suffering some kind of confirmation bias, or does Spock spend an unusually large amount of time expressing emotions, for someone who's supposed to never express emotions?
EDIT: By way of addressing some of the replies to this post, without replying to them all individually, I just wanted to add this:
I'm not critiquing the handling of Spock's character in relation to TOS or movies, Peck's a great actor and is doing a fine job at interpreting this role.
The point I'm trying to make is that Spock (and data, T'pol, Tuvok, etc. after him) gets juxtaposed so often, it seems more entertainment-oriented than story-oriented. Like, "wouldn't it be cool if they had to...". The classic sitcom trope of putting the awkward person in a public-facing position, with hilarious consequences. It just seems like these hilarious consequences are occurring too often to call it character development.
Try posting non-US news to !news and see what happens.
Well that's some high grade bullshit. "The World’s Internet Frontpage".
It'll go unnoticed, but I think it's appropriate to remind Americans that theyre co-opting terms like "news" to mean "American news".
I kind of wish you'd posted this before your original post, though I appreciate it was significantly more effort to type. You've made a number of well laid-out points that I largely agree with, but I'm not sure your original post indicated anything other than teacher and/or union bashing, which was difficult to get on board with!
thanks for using Leebra!
