I'm going to preempt what my powers of prognostication see coming, but if you come into this thread bitching about too much diversity in Star Trek, you're in the wrong community.

    And the wrong fandom! Star Trek has always been about diversity and inclusion

    I had to have this conversation with. Repub relative. They love Star Trek. They’re rewatching DS9, again, right now.

    Announces to me that they won’t be watching Discovery because it’s fallen to the “woke” agenda. To be fair, I’ve only seen season 1 (access issue), but I immediately had to laugh at them. Woke is Star Trek, Star Trek is woke, since TOS. Just what do you think you’ve been watching all these years?

    They said something about Stacey Abrams being on it. My voiced thought was and how do you feel about the entire (hyperbole) cast of Roots (the original) being dispersed throughout Star Trek? Do we need to talk about Captain Sisko, or Commander Geordi La Forge? And Takai has said Roddenberry knew he was gay, kind of a big deal back then. I could go on, as you well know.

    It’s just a bizarre take from someone into Star Trek their whole lives.
