It wasn’t union BS in the processing ship, the unions weren’t always BS and that processing ship was an example. There was a legitimate problem in the fleet, all jobs were becoming hereditary, and work conditions on that ship were unsafe. Something needed to be done. Notice though that it cut in both directions, there was going to be no fleet crippling strike, they were going to work together to fix the problem. Not really the style of unions.

Notice the only homosexuals we’ve dealt with in the entire series were a cylon and a psycho. I know they tagged the movie with a “gays are people too” message at the end, but really given the characters they decided to make gay that was just to keep GLAD from hounding them.

Once again, nothing but projecting. If you don’t like the show don’t like it. But really not everything you don’t like is leftist. People need to stop BSing themselves.

The writers were explicit in their desire to be pro left wing. Said so in their interviews.

They put in suicide bombers specifically to comment on Iraq. can’t project that.

Since this is a political forum and not a wet behind the ears scifi fan forum, we are quite solid ground commenting on the left wing hollyweird poop.

I remember on the pre premier show they actually answer a fan question about a homosexual character. The dodged it but implied they were not going to go there. Apparently they thought they would have more viewers if they hid their intentions.
