Between the “Star Trek was better before all this PC stuff” crowd and the “The silly Star Trek episodes are Bad” crowd I wonder if some people have watched Star Trek at all.
One of the first things I learned in this fandom is that a lot of self-identified “Star Trek fans” actually hate Star Trek and don’t seem to realize it
But the PC episodes were like... in all of the other star treks? Same with the silly ones? Star Trek using future allegories to talk about modern day genocides and wars is a thing that’s been happening for all of Star Trek?
That is my point. If you remove those two categories of episodes you get no episodes at all.
Gene Roddenberry deliberately sat his hippy ass down and created Mr. Sulu to "represent Asia" and Captain Kirk got in a fistfight with the Greek god Apollo, so anybody who says Discovery has "forced diversity" or the spore drive is too ridiculous is a fake Trekkie and don't know shit
