Someone working for the US Space Force must be a Trekkie. Star Trek fans say a new logo is a direct ripoff of Star Trek's Starfleet Command logo.

President Donald Trump revealed the new logo for the Space Force on Friday via Twitter.

[...]As soon as it was posted, eagle-eyed Star Trek fans responded, pointing out the logo's similarities to the Starfleet Command logo. The arrow, the swirl around the arrow, the star background and text placement are almost identical.

Cultural references and inspirations are only allowed for the right people?

    So does it suck or not? My money's on "Yes, it does suck." Even back in Nemesis Patrick Stewart constantly looked like he was drunk and slammed out, like a guy waking up from a 5-day bender.

    I'm not surprised that there's yet another Trek show out, I am surprised that he is the center of it. I'm guessing the Jews gave it to him as a reward for publicly jumping on the anti-Trump bandwagon. I'm also guessing they're taking advantage of his senility, he really should appoint somebody with power of attorney and have that person make these decisions for him.

    I'd rather we get a show about Jeri Ryan and Jennifer Lian -- We don't have to deal with any obnoxious politics coming from their mouths because they get their jobs from Jewish producers coming in their mouths.

    Nah, it's pretty damned good. Think the best work by Sir Pat in TNG and the movies, along with better special effects. So far the writing's damned good too but there's only one episode to judge by.
