[–] kuneho@lemmy.world -4 points 2 years ago (2 children) I would say DS9 was progressive. If the topic is woke Star Trek, it's rather Discovery. permalink fedilink source hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] pyre@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago (1 child) woke is not a bad word. don't try to make it so. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] kuneho@lemmy.world -5 points 2 years ago (1 child) you were making it bad for yourself, I haven't said that.

I mean, I like that they have a non-binary character. But that they made a semi-big deal out of it makes no sense in-universe imo. Usually, Star Trek would just have a character that's non-binary and everyone would just go with it, showing how in an ideal world coming-out is either not necessary or not more than a simple correction. permalink fedilink source parent [–] kuneho@lemmy.world -2 points 2 years ago haven't said Discovery was shit because of its overwokeness, it has its serious issues on its own permalink fedilink source parent
