      Did he? Looking at the entire picture, Q is basically a benevolent trickster god for Picard. Almost every single “trial” has Picard coming out stronger because of it. ST:Picard even has Q state it out right.

        Picard was his pet project. The kind of thing godlike beings do when bored. Just reshaping the dynamics of a galaxy for shits and giggles.

          That applies to most gods in real life religions too. If anything Q has a more respectful relationship with Picard than gods display in most mythologies.

        Unfortunately I’m only familiar with the meme. I’ve paid no attention to him otherwise. Have I missed something I’m guessing?

          Given the full spectrum of human expression, I guess he’s not that bad. He’s just an overall talentless hack and asshole.

          That scene in particular he’s being quite the idiot.
