“the klingon empire deserves to die because it’s corrupt” says ezri dax, who uncovered that the entire trill joining committee is corrupt and then didnt do anything about it
’ We’re talking about a warrior culture that prides itself on maintaining centuries old traditions of honour and integrity, but in reality it’s willing to accept corruption at the highest levels ‘ ezri, remember how despite Trill’s vaulted culture of meritocracy, curzon completely shitcanned jadzia’s dream because he wanted to bang her and resented her for it and only changed his mind later explicitly because he got to possess her body in a different way , and you were never even bothered by this.
remember how they blocked aspects of your zhian’tara in your brain because it had a serial killer in it and they just lied to you about it
like you could have told the people of Trill about any of these things at any time.
