    I get not liking Discovery, but do people really think Lower Decks, SNW, Picard are “Woke?”

    Also, obviously, sci-fi is at its best when tackling politics… Isn’t that kinda the point?

      “Woke” has long since lost its original meaning.

      Used to mean something positive and progressive. Then it meant something that tried writing itself off as something progressive, but was simply stupid and entitled (i.e. That Batwoman series), now it’s anything a right winger hates, even if it isn’t trying to be progressive in any way.

      Truth is, with NuTrek, it doesn’t have a single progressive bone in its body, and the writers don’t have the skill to pull off any sort of commentary.

      It’s woke because they’re so unhinged that basic human decency is woke now.

      SNW has like 90% female crew members. Also the pilot lady has short hair. Therefore woke.

      Probably.
