This, I think, was the thing that finally broke through the absolute wall of salt and rage that my friend was going through over Endgame. As a longtime Trek fan, I was able to tell her about all the shit that fandom just like... collectively deleted, lmao. Sub Rosa? That episode doesn't exist. A good chunk of the first and last seasons of DS9? Nope, doesn't exist. Nemesis? Does not fucking exist.

This isn't a denial thing, either, it's just-- when you have so much canon, as MCU also does, there's no reason on earth why you should have to take every iota of it into account, especially when it's not particularly good or contradicts prior canon in an egregious way. It's fine. Just forget it happened and move on.

Plus, there's always the deus ex machinas you can employ. In Trek's universe, you've always got Q or the Mirror Universe. In MCU, the ending of Endgame opened up the multiverse. So now you've got a full-on canon-based excuse to do whatever the hell you want, lmao. Go nuts!

This whole thread is making me feel like I'm somehow doing Trek fandom wrong? I accept the goofy stuff, I don't get mad at it; I acknowledge it's silly as all heck, but I don't treat it as not having happened either. :P

Maybe it's because I'm mostly attached to the novel microfandom within the Trek fandom, and some of the neatest stuff (Forgotten History out of Miri and the Vedala, the extended strife between Klingon HemQuch and QuchHa' out of the retrovirus, the A Time To... series and Titan out of Nemesis, basically the entire Enterprise post-series book line out of that awful finale) came out of the goofy stuff.

(And what's the big deal about Sybok? He's just a v'tosh ka'tur from before there was a name for that. :P)
