Dear Amazon… it is Martin Gero’s Stargate or bust! We have no interest in a reboot. We have no interest in a “new creative direction”. We have no interest in something made for “modern audiences” We want THIS Stargate from THESE creators! That’s it! If you make something else and slap a Stargate name on it… we will not show up. We will actively boycott! Your future generic “modern audiences” slop will fail without us! You either succeed with us or fail without us! That is your only choice! #SaveStargate You have already written the show! YOU HAVE ALREADY SPENT THE MONEY!

She had her own spinoff in the works.

Throughout my career, I've been dismayed by the contempt some genre executives have held for fans, routinely underestimating their power to make or break a show. I've watched this repeat too many times, across too many shows, to be talking about any single one of them. Yet despite the mounting evidence over the past few years, they continue to dismiss the data, repeating the same miscalculations time and again. But technology has rewritten the rules, and the power dynamics are shifting. Today’s fans are organized, strategic, and highly data-literate - effectively turning the platforms' own metrics against them. As the bets get bigger and the audience grows sharper, it will be fascinating to see how this plays out.

So why am I lashing out at the AMA, an organization I was a proud member of and worked very hard for when I was at JAMA? The X-world will learn, as I release documents regarding my litigation against them for firing me for what has been determined by the appropriate agencies as a 'civil rights violation.' You can use your imagination what that means in the context of their being all-in with DEI at the time. They claimed that I denied the existence of racism in medicine - the exact opposite of what I said in a podcast the AMA edited and published after review by my supervisor. I had no control of that process. The courts agreed with my claim of libel and defamation, a decision the AMA appealed and lost in a unanimous decision. Along the way the courts described the AMA as disingenuous. An organization that holds itself out as representing Americas Physicians to policy makers should not engage in libel and if they do, they should be disqualified from representing us. You have not heard much recently because the AMA asked the courts to keep the proceeding secret-They do not want the physician community to learn how they do business. However, the closed nature of the documentation is over, and I'll be able to share what I learned during the proceedings. It's not pretty and it shows how the AMA actually functions. This is not what I wanted in life. I am an academic surgeon. I have no interest in politics. But the AMA destroyed my career and reputation for capricious reasons. I cannot let that stand. The AMA needs to be held accountable, no matter how wealthy they are compared to me.

Nope. No. Sorry. Gonna have to push back on this. We were ever mindful of creating a show that would have broad appeal.

We are here, and we're not going anywhere @MichaelShanks <3 #SaveStargate

Stargate's Joe Mallozzi: Executives Hold Fans In 'Contempt' cosmicbook.news/stargate-joe…

The reason anyone gets insanely rich is almost always because of the stock market. It certainly how @elonmusk did. And the reason they get rich from the stock market, is because 150m Americans decided they wanted to own shares of stocks directly, or through their retirement plans, or through other approaches as a way of building their net worth and trying to create a better life for themselves. One Hundred Fifty Million Americans. About 60% of adults. Effectively believing that @elonmusk and many billionaires could make them wealthier and help them achieve a better life. If you want @elonmusk , and most billionaires to no longer be that rich, convince those 150m to sell their stocks, funds, ETFs whatever. Of course you would wipe out the net-worth of most of those people, and everyone else’s savings, as the markets crashed and brought down the economy and created the worst depression we have ever seen. Alternatively There are ways to improve healthcare access and eventually make it available to all. To start - If you want @elonmusk and all billionaires to improve healthcare for everyone , ask them to stop doing business with the enormous healthcare conglomerates and to work directly with transparently priced care providers. It’s the behemoth HC conglomerates that make HC so bad for so many. (Check my timeline for more detail) Removing them would push the cost of healthcare down for everyone. Their corporate decisions impact our healthcare cost and availability. Of course if they do that, not only would our HC costs go down , and the quality of care for their employees and the entire country go up But They would see their corporate cash flow increase dramatically and we would have more millionaires, billionaires and maybe even another trillionaire when that cash flow moved from the big health care conglomerates to their bottom line, so would the net worth of the 150 million American adults that own public stocks Capitalism is better than socialism because 150m Americans can influence exactly what happens in this country.
