We are watching DS9 together and we got to the episodes Past Tense parts 1 & 2. Emily kept remarking how "close to home" it feels.
I concur. The earth of 2026 feels shockingly similar to the era of the Bell riots.
The only thing about the episodes that was dramatically unfamiliar was that the techbro character had any semblance of humanity. Lol
