Trekkie here. People still complain about modern Trek being "woke" unlike their preferred version (which definitely does not talk about "woke" issues through allegory, or something)

Modern trek is very fascist unfortunately.

I don't watch Star Trek, but even I know that the first show was hated in its time for having a black woman in the main cast and would've been called "woke" and boycotted for the socialist themes.

Which is odd, since nutrek seems obsessed with section 31 and the mirror universe, so fascists should be on board.

those people are conservatives, and i dont believe they were ever true trek fans, to say that. the problem with nutrek is the showrunners/execs pushing thier own agenda, and "tyring to be offended for thier target audience" of OG trek.

Again, this is just vibes based. I will not be defending Discovery but Lower Decks is fucking awesome and Strange New Worlds is a solid return to TNG style storytelling. Vaguely gesturing at imagined wokeness is not an argument.
