MODERATORS
You're suggesting that redemption from disgrace is the same as "everyone else fawning over how great she is and what they’d do without her"?
@Corgana That's what redemption is about. It's recognizing that even the greatest among us make mistakes and can still be great.
Do you have any evidence to support your claim? I looked it up and I didn't see anything about "redemption" necessitating the fawning over of the redemptee by others, so until someone claims otherwise I'm going to believe Mr. Webster.
@Corgana People fawned over her because she was a loving character who did great. That greatness emerged from her redemption and would have been lost to whatever the Federation's idea of a prison cell in the 23rd century otherwise.
I've been on social media for a while and I have to say, this has all the hallmarks of a flame war. So this is all I'm going to have to say on the matter. You can throw darts at her photograph on your own wall.
Wait what? lol I like Burhnam. I was arguing with the guy who was making shit up to hate on her!
