I’m sorry to anyone I gave shit to about the writing or about it being the Michael Burnham Whining Hour. Y’all were right.
Expect a name change soon.

It’s not that it’s too woke, woke is a star trek cornerstone. It’s because it’s “corporation flying rainbow flag” woke. Stamets in particular does nothing but provide empty representation. Representation is great but there needs to be something to it. You can’t just sit down and be like “ok, he’s gay and neurotic and possibly autistic” and never develop any further than that. Minorities aren’t cardboard cutouts who exist to check off a box. They’re people.
Yeah, thank you, I think that’s a great way to describe it. Do you think season 5 was significantly worse in this regard? Or perhaps I’m just remembering it better since it just came out.
Either way, I totally agree with you. I wasn’t able to connect with any of the characters or storylines because they were so hollow and superficial
IMO season 5 was a little better in terms of getting representation right compared to, for instance, season 2. I did not like the strong focus on Michaels self doubts, it just gets old.
