First like 5 episodes they already have sexism, and ableism, as well as referencing Elon musk as well as capturing a creature and using it for there own agenda, like wtf is this? Does it ever become less shitty or should I just skip it?

You should skip it because it leans harder and harder into the things you don’t like in a Star Trek show.
I watched the first two episodes to give it a chance. Only kept watching it because my wife wanted to watch it together. Made it to the end of season 3 before she lost interest.
A few ensemble characters were memorable, but the writers did a terrible job of making the main character’s arc understandable or plausible. A character who doesn’t follow the rules either needs to be right most of the time to show they are a foil for authority’s mistakes or learn they aren’t as smart as they think they are by facing consequences. Michael just ignored orders and failed up the whole time while learning nothing. She did get motional about it, but didn’t actually change her behavior. The actress did a fine job with what she had to work with, I blame the writing.
Since the main character’s story is the primary focus of nearly every episode, this really dragged down the side character stories, which were mostly good to great.
