Currently region-locked - hopefully they’ll fix it soon.

    Is it gonna be full of people thinking the gender and race issues are the most important topics for the story, to the degree that it becomes the entire story?

    Ive lost hope for star trek since discovery.

      Oh I hate that about Discovery. All those preachy episodes like Let That Be Your Last Battlefield, The Outcast, and Far Beyond The Stars…

      Oh wait, was TOS, TNG, and DS9. Can you remind me again when Discovery got anywhere near as focused on race or gender issues as any of those episodes?

        Someone once told me that Discovery had a “storyline” about a character coming out as nonbinary so I asked them if they could tell me what episodes this storyline took place or provide any details from this story because all I could think of was a five second scene with Adira that is never mentioned before or after. Of course they could not provide any evidence but they remained fully convicted that it did happen… somewhere.
