Klingons as a race and a society is a fucking stupid concept.
Borg turned to joke thanks to VOY.
Romulans were severely underused.
Cardies were pretty good I guess, but also had some unrealistic bullshit traits.
Ferengi = comic relief.
Founders - I don't really know what to say here.

>>
>>72055391

If there is a Universal Translator in his combadge, it has to essentially read his mind to provide real-time translations of what he's saying. That's how they can say specific alien words, like Daimon or Imzadi. Otherwise it would just come out as Pirate Captain or Butt-buddy.

Do Klingons loot? I don't recall it being mentioned but I suppose it would make sense as they don't appear to have replicators
>>
>>72054932
I always thought the Federation gave it to them, that's why they have the Prime Directive to not get involved with Pre-Warp civilisation.

Apparently the Dindus managed to become space faring themselves.
>>
>>72055589
>Ferengi = comic relief.

They were meant to be the new evil species for TNG, but weren't imposing enough to be taken seriously. So they came up with Cardassians.
>>
>>72055774

Klingons are older space faring civilization than humans.
>>
>>72055774
The backstory in Enterprise is that the Klingons were gradually becoming more and more militaristic until they became the one-dimensional warrior race we saw in the TNG era. So it's easy to imagine they were once a regular economically diverse society until a trend towards full retardation took hold.
Before that the backstory in the EU material was that their planet was that their planet was relatively primitive when the Hurq invaded and after the Klingons fought them off they back-engineered the technology they left behind.

Technically the Pakled, basically they did a single episode of TNG that directly answers this question. It's hard to believe they're all that retarded though, you see them sometimes doing normal shit.

>>72059530

Arguably the best answer, while somewhat smarter than the Pakled it's not by much and they're so culturally vicious, warlike and generally allahu akbar fucked up that they ruin everything they touch. Steal new technology? It blows up and kills everyone. Capture a starfleet officer? He escapes. Have a spy aboard voyager and it goes so well you steal the whole ship? She gets pregnant with your freakbaby and betrays you. They stole all of their shit from their former enslavers and basically don't know how to advance, or even that they should advance. They will almost certainly be wiped out by another race or be assimilated.

>>72054743

Relevant, they bought warp drive from another race, also their economy as much as they worship it develops 10 times slower than Earth's "did". They don't love money nearly much as they are stupid enough to still love money.

Honorable mention to the Zakdorn for not actually being good at anything but making everyone believe they are.

I never really thought about that, they don't have warp drive (space sailsboats that happened to fly into magic warp slipstreams don't count) so if the Cardies didn't drag them kicking and screaming into the civilised world, they'd just be murdering each other over muh prophets on their own and The Federation wouldn't be allowed to talk to them.

They touched on this in Enterprise; there was an old Klingon lawyer who talked to Archer about how the warrior caste basically came to dominate society over the last couple of generations and Klingons went from space Japan to space mongols.

It was at least done better than the other ways the show fiddled with the canon.
>>
>>72061422
That they almost certainly traded for, given that they took twice as long as humans to go from stone age to warp-capable.
>>
>>72062677
I just wonder what a Klingon warship factory would be like. It seems like the scientists and engineers would always be murdering each other over nothing and they wouldn't be able to get anything done.
>>
>>72062870
They probably just use slave labor and/or outsourcing, plus there are probably still plenty of Klingons who just mutter "yeah whatever" when they're taunted about being fags and get back to work.
>>
>>72062870
>>72062677
they really did become flanderised, they started off as conquerors, went on to become more Samurai like but went full Barbarian.

You do really question how they get anything done but at least enterprise used the change to tell a story.

This guy >>72055008 was just joking, Klingon scientists are normal people. Probably. Well, not really, but not quite as murderous as warrior caste Klingons.

The only one I recall was the one in Suspicions (aka the one where Beverly investigates a murder because nobody believes her, not even Sherlock Data), and she was a bit more docile than most Klingons, but not a lot.

>Undine (species 8472) which are shape shifting
Actually pretty sure they were just very bio-tech oriented. Their shape-shifting was shown as gene therapy injections in that VOY episode where they were trying to study human thought, by recreating starfleet HQ.

Now, the shapeshifters species that Odo in DS9 were the real terrorism allegory monster of the week who could legitimately transform themselves at-will into anything.

DS9 marked the change from Roddenberry's utopian fantasy to (((Berman's))) profit and propaganda vehicle

Kira Nerys is the noble savage, simultaneously benefitting from modernity but better than the creators of modernity because of muh spirituality. It's a narrative that is pushed everywhere today.
>>
>>72063065
The Kazon were like Space Pikeys. None of the technology was theirs, they were constantly killing each other, and they would murder you just to get your space vending machine. cullah was pretty based though, mainly because his actor is an irl carry Lord and a swordsman.

Notice that while the Federation was still using TOS Movie-era ships like the Excelsior class during the dominion war, the bulk of their fleet is much newer classes. Meanwhile in DS9 the Klingon fleet is almost entirely TOS-era Cruisers, TOS movie era warbirds, with a very few modern ships serving as capital ships.
