    SERIOUSLY. I couldn’t manage to get more than 2 episodes into Discovery because it was all action no philosophical questions. Like, if you can’t give us a courtroom challenge, at LEAST give us some Prime Directive nuance.

        Don’t forget the shitty lighting

        Don’t forget the ridiculous story lines that completely ignored decades of startrek history

        Don’t forget all the cursing

        Don’t forget all the murdering without remorse or consequences

        Don’t forget about the characters that completely changed. Beverly crusher now is a sharp killer. Seven of nine is now a lesbian double phaser wielding mass murderer, Picard is a mumbling sad little man who gets put in his place and ridiculed by everyone. Klingons?aaaahaaaaarrgghh… But yeah, “Klingons now represent Trump voters”.

        All new start trek has been made by people who by their own admission don’t know star Trek, nor like star Trek, they just wanted the large fan base for money and use it as a their personal political platform

        To (very sadly) quote new star strek: Sheer fucking hubris
