2For the Yangs versus Kohms, that seemed to be prejudice due to different ideologies, rather than due to their appearance (especially given their origin).– ThunderforgeCommented Jan 23, 2018 at 14:09

@Thunderforge - The Enterprise crew speculated that the war started that way, but by the time of the episode it had become more of a traditional hatred.– GaultheriaCommented Jan 23, 2018 at 16:34

1But was it hatred over race? Or just hatred over being "other"? It's been a long time since I've seen that episode, so perhaps they did address it. My recollection was that the "traditional hatred" wasn't due to the color of their skin (just like how US Capitalists vs. Soviet Communists wasn't "racism" because the discrimination was due to ideology, not skin color, or football rivals are at odds with each other but not due to skin color). Perhaps adding a quote from the episode to support that this is racism would help.– ThunderforgeCommented Jan 23, 2018 at 17:21

2Augments versus "natural" humans: are Augments strictly human - homo sapien - though? I don't think so and they are better than us in the sense they have superior abilities only. Remember Neanderthals are classed as human species but if one could be brought back I don't think anybody would agree that we are the same. For one thing they are stronger and had bigger brains and are likely to have been different in many ways.– user95188Commented Jan 24, 2018 at 15:46

1Augments don't count. Klingons have been retconned too many times, and if Thunderforge is right, Yangs and Kohms are the same race.– MazuraCommented Jan 25, 2018 at 1:51

A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
Type the name of the science fictional or fantastical work your question is about (Example:
star-wars
).For questions not specific to any one work, use concept tags to describe your question (Example:
story-identification
).Tagging rules:
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. story-identification), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
