“Stephen Miller, on behalf of Star Trek, and everyone who knew and loved him, keep my Captain’s name out of your f–king Nazi mouth,” he wrote. “He despised you, and everything you stand for.”

Wil Wheaton being awesome as usual.

Carry on!

[–] xxce2AAb@feddit.dk 240 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (9 children)

Yeah, that's fair. Stephen Miller should keep everything else out of his filthy Nazi mouth too, including atmospheric air.

Go on, Stephen: Hold you breath until we start liking your Nazi ass.

That would be similar to Hitlers last act of heroism before dying after living as the villain.

[–] ikidd@lemmy.dbzer0.com 32 points 1 week ago

You have to hand it to Hitler, at least he killed Hitler!

Surprising how much still fits with Trump's dick in there.

Or maybe not, maybe there's a functional reason he wanted kids

According to Stormy, it doesn’t need mush room.

If anyone had told me in the 90's that I would end up deeply admiring Westley Crusher and considering him one of my heroes, I would never have believed it.

In fairness, it's not new. Wil Wheaton has always been awesome. But this confirms his awesomeness.

His dice do NOT roll nat-20s, lol, not unless the goal is to roll low

[–] chonglibloodsport@lemmy.world 46 points 1 week ago (1 children)

The hate for Wil Wheaton has never been warranted. He was a child. He had nothing to do with the writing of his character (wish fulfilment Mary Sue / Marty Stu type of character for Gene Roddenberry).

I’ve been a fan of Wil since before I started watching Star Trek TNG as a kid, when I saw him in Stand By Me. Later in life I learned that he was a nerd, and was “one of us” much more than the other Trek actors. There’s really so much to love about the guy that at this point if you hate him it’s on you, not him.

Yep. Whill Wheaton has always been a pretty stand-up guy.

Stephen miller should just not talk at all

[–] Lushed_Lungfish@lemmy.ca 55 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Stephen Miller should just not breathe at all.

[–] Fartemis@lemmy.zip 24 points 1 week ago

I like this option.

[–] vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.works 23 points 1 week ago (5 children)

The Romans had a method for that. We just need pair of tongs and a white hot knife, may as well go all the way too and take his junk and eyes.

Good. More. Bring public shaming back until these cretins scurry back under their rocks.

This one pisses me off. A lot.

Westley Crusher: "Shut up, Stephen!"

[–] Warl0k3@lemmy.world 73 points 1 week ago

"Keep talking, Westley."

[–] hperrin@lemmy.ca 53 points 1 week ago

Fucking legend.

[–] LillyPip@lemmy.ca 42 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

Wil Wheaton is the man. He should be on Lemmy. He was on Reddit, and we’d love him even more here.

[–] one_old_coder@piefed.social 28 points 1 week ago (3 children)

He was on Reddit

And he was on Slashdot before that.

[–] mumblerfish@lemmy.world 12 points 1 week ago (4 children)

He was on mastodon too, but I think he left.

Yes, Wil! Haha, yes!

I don't think Will could beat up many guys, but I believe Will could beat the shit out of Miller.

[–] kata1yst@sh.itjust.works 22 points 1 week ago

Where there's a Wil there's a way.

DON'T SHUT UP, WESLEY.

The ancient Greeks had a good idea with Ostracism.

No need for a trial, or even an accusation of a crime. Just the population saying "this person is shitty and shouldn't be in the city/country" and they were kicked out for 10 years.

Love this man. Been enjoying his It's Story Time with Wil Wheaton podcast. He makes little audio books out of short science fiction stories by lesser known authors.

Always nice to see someone telling off the anthropomorphized cancerous polyp designated as Stephen Miller.

[–] RampantParanoia2365@lemmy.world 19 points 1 week ago (4 children)

Stephen Miller being a diehard Trekkie is one of life's great What the Fucks.

[–] InputZero@lemmy.world 15 points 1 week ago (1 children)

It's the military structure he likes. Everyone wears a uniform, everyone puts the uniform before themselves. It's all yes sir, no sir, Klingons decloaking off starboard sir. There is a clear structure of authority and everyone follows it without question. That is the part of Star Trek Stephen Miller likes. He's so blinded by the set and setting that he doesn't see the message at all. As far as he's concerned it's a space show about subordinates following their Capitan. Nothing more.

Love this guy.

[–] GrumpyGrampa@lemmy.zip 13 points 1 week ago

Stephen Miller isn’t even a human being. He should go live on a very small desert island that can only house rats so he has plenty to eat!

[–] RabbitBBQ@lemmy.world 13 points 1 week ago

It's been a long road, getting from there to here
