Really kind of a hot take but if you think Kai Winn is legitimately worse than Dukat you’ve got some issues.
Like what’s worse, being a corrupt religious leader or committing actually r*pe and genocide frequently AND being an even MORE corrupt religious leader because you started a fucking death cult 🤔
I definitely agree with this, but also I’m an aspiring author and from a writers perspective I prefer the character of Dukat. He has a lot of backstory and is such a complicated character with a great arc, but then there’s Kai Winn over here just being annoying and evil and for what? Like whyyy?
I can’t tell if you’re being sarcastic or if you genuinely forgot Winn Adami’s whole backstory of surviving the atrocities of the Cardassian occupation as well as her entire character arc starting with her indignation at the fact that a Starfleet officer, a human of all things, was chosen as the Emissary instead of her, who had dedicated her whole life to serving the Prophets, who she understandably felt betrayed by, so she resorted to turning to the Pah-Wraiths (the Satanic representation we didn’t know we needed in Trek) and also slightly almost mended her relationship with Kira which Dukat certainly never did (she even admitted her flaws and seemed to understand the weight of the things she had done), and then getting tricked into sleeping with Gul Dukat (can you fucking imagine), throwing him out into the streets blind and helpless when she found out the truth, also she fucking KILLED him albeit temporarily.
That’s a lot of things. Dukat’s entire character was just why don’t the people I oppressed like me I was such a nice guy :’(

I wish we could have seen Voyager change more throughout the seven seasons because I like the original idea about Voyager being unrecognizable.
When Janeway hails Starfleet command they are greeted by a bridge that has been rebuilt with Borg technology, officers that hasn’t worn their uniforms in three years and the various crewmen, liberated drones, hitchhikers, criminals and at least five dogs she has picked up on the journey. The dogs roam the ship freely, as does Janeway’s and Paris’ salamander offspring.
#my mind read the first line and went COMPLETELY the opposite way#like. could you imagine…..voyager just being ssso fucked up.#you can see the exhaustion in all their eyes#their haunted looks. theyve been touched by the vastness of the unknown and it has left its scars#voyager is a patch job. they needed to survive and they did whatever was necessary#uniforms are worn half heartedly. starfleet is an antiquated ideological organisation out in the delta quadrant#everything being the same but at the same time. its all off#something something the uncanny

There’s definitely a duality in this concept which I’ve touched on before too, in the sense that there’s comedy and tragedy there. You can have comedy in those moments where their lives are absurd yet normalized to themselves, but tragedy when their changed selves return home and have to adjust to lives made for what feels like other people. So there’s definitely several ways to tell that story.
