Star Trek has always been woke. Nichelle Nichols was one of the first black women to feature prominently on TV in a lead role. She was also one of the first actresses to have an interracial kiss on US television.

If you can't see that Star Trek hasn't always been about equality and diversity and learning to accept those who are different then I'm really not sure what you've been watching.

I love sci fi, and I loved these star treks very very much, they are excellent:

  • Star Trek Voyager
  • Star Trek Enterprise
  • Star Trek New Generation
  • Star Trek Deep Space Nine

However, these ones are awful:

  • Stat Trek Strange New Worlds
  • Star Trek Picard
  • Star Trek Discovery

I think the entire "woke" thing has become way too much in the last ones, to the degree that it's annoying to watch.

I think it's similar to watching TV shows with too much sex. I mean, it's not enjoyable, it's just annoying. Or watching Fox News for 5 minutes and wanting to jump off a cliff.

I've not heard of a show called “Star Trek New Generation”. Are you thinking of “Star Trek: The Next Generation”?

Are you sure you're a fan?
