Placing the bland Michael Burnham centrepoint isn’t something ST did before.

It should primarily be a science fiction show, not a morality lecture.

What's the difference?

It is top of my list of wanted features.

Current trek (anything after enterprise) has horrible story lines, horrible dialogue, is mostly about dump action pew pew and CGI, ignores 50 years of history, is all about fuck this, fuck that and fucking fuck you and honestly: it isn’t woke: it’s only virtue signalling.

To claim that all iterations of modern Trek are a homogenous unit cut from one singular cloth tells me that either you haven't actually even attempted to watch even half of it, or you're completely blinded by personal biases. Either way, your opinion would be easy to discard even if it wasn't a rant only tangentially related to the original post.

100%. I find the sameness of the Borg board a bit difficult to look at, so I’d really like some other set, and I agree incorporating a way to transport between two ships would be optimal.

Please explain it to me, then.

Who said you can’t critique Disco?

This is about a very specific, very silly objection, levelled by people who have found themselves indoctrinated into a mode of thinking that alienates them from the people around them, because of a manufactured fear preying upon alienation many of us experience in our modern world.

I’ve had plenty of objections to aspects of Disco, especially during season two, but scattered throughout the series, and no one has ever called me a bigot for my hot takes. If you’re presenting your critiques in such a way that people are assuming you’re bigoted, perhaps you should reevaluate how you’re constructing your criticism.

Jeepers, that’s dark, Boss.

The truth? He didn’t say anything at all.

I'm sure that you feel like you're saying something very profound, but for most people that's just gibberish.
