Klingon Propaganda

Whether or not it is for Star Trek Online, it is pretty amazing and it makes me want to be Klingon when this game is released!

More research was done into what or who made it at TrekMovie.

Asking for help on the internet is like asking a swarm of bees why they are stinging you!

If it is viral advertising then the best thing we can do is ignore it. Whoever made it wants us to waste our time looking at it searching for some anwser as to what it means when it probably means nothing. Which is exactly why we should do the complete opposite.

Each man must for himself alone decide what is right and what is wrong, which course is patriotic and which isn't. You cannot shirk this and be a man. To decide against your conviction is to be an unqualified and inexcusable traitor, both to yourself and to your country, let men label you as they may. ~Mark Twain

Fiction reveals truth that reality obscures.

I think it's beautiful.

However, I also think it's more likely for J.J. Abrams' next Trek movie. He's big on viral marketing, all the ships in the video are TOS-era, and the Soviet Union image of Klingons is more TOS-Klingon than anything else.

I agree. The Video was also quite funny and good.
