Tolkien describing Elvish woman: The Lady was beautiful and pale with long silver hair and wore some kind of flowing garnment. anyway back to the men

Me: ok cool she sounds pretty can I hear more about her-

Tolkien describing Elvish man: FINDOR SON OF FINLOTH WAS SO FAIR AND GRAVE THAT THE SWANS DID HIS BIDDING. HE WAS TALL AND STRONG AND WIELDED A HUNTING KNIFE. HIS DARK HAIR FLOWING IN THE WIND, HE TOOK A LAST STAND AT THE PEAK OF MORGOTH'S SEX DUNGEON WHERE HIS GOLDEN-HAIRED ELVEN COMPANION HAD LONG FALLEN PREY TO THE DARK LORD'S WILES

Me: ok so you're going through a lot. I get it. It's fine my man

Love to see Zionists getting thrown out of internet communities. Love to see people shutting them down with "you are a fascist" and refusing to engage further with any comments or explanations and just banning them from any shared spaces. You all can so easily cheer for murder of thousands but cry when people don't want to be associated with you? Lol. Anyway I hope you get the boot from even more shared spaces, both online and offline.

Klingons are a diaspora. They're an empire that span multiple planets with multiple environments. Their history is long and full of expansion and conquest- which inevitably creates cultural differences.

Included in their history are plagues and genetic and surgical manipulation that created physical differences.

That's how this guy is Klingon

And this guy is Klingon

And this guy is klingon

And this babe is also Klingon

Klingon identity as a diaspora is kind of the whole point of the story of the Klingons. What does it mean to be Klingon?

The rallying cry of the Klingon armies during the war with the Federation is "Remain Klingon".

What does that mean? Do they even know?

Is Klingon a racial or cultural identity?

Those are questions B'elanna Torres and Alexander Rozhenko are asking themselves all the time.

Can you convert to Klingon?

Curzon Dax and the alternate timeline "Sons of Mogh" seem to indicate you potentially can.

The planet of integrated Romulan and Klingons managing to strike a balance between both cultures was such a shock to Worf because hate and mistrust for Romulans had been such an integral part of his concept of Klingon identity that it made him ask new questions about himself.

If hating Romulans is not essential to Klingon identity, then what is Klingon identity?

Worf being biologically Klingon and culturally Jewish, I think, was meant to drive home the point that, like the Jewish people, Klingons are a diaspora and not a monlith.

And arguing about which Klingons are "real" ones is kind of funny because it's replicating the same debates the Klingons are having amongst themselves without even realizing it.
