I love DS9 and I’d enjoy reading updates on your thoughts as you watch more
Really curious to see what you think of Quark and family as the show continues
The nuance in the depiction of terrorism/freedom fighting in this show is something I haven’t seen much in other US shows, definitely not in shows after 9/11. Also the fact that Bajorans don’t generally want to be absorbed into the Federation immediately after gaining independence and how this “natural resource” discovered near their planet runs the risk of bringing imperialists of all kinds just swarming (back) to their planet basically which they have to deal with while reconstructing after colonization and trying to maintain their sovereignty, not something I usually expect US shows to even depict let alone show fairly complex points of view on.
