    But also an aggregated numeric value is not a criticism at all

    How’s that? If 10 of your coworkers rated your job performance as 5/10; would you think that’s not a critical indicator of a failing performance?

    How about viewer count, shall we go look that up?

      No. I’ve never been evaluated in such a fashion, and I’d resent it if I were. I think my boss should have the competence to judge my work on its own merits. I judge the shows I watch the same way.

      I’m confused as to your purpose here. You seem to be arguing that the show is bad because it’s unpopular. Is that how you form all your opinions? Popular vote, no need to think for yourself?

        The premis of the thread seems to be that the show is getting review bombed because of MAGA. I pointed out that filtering out the United States still gives abysmally low scores.

        If you look at viewer count (low) and review bombs (high), it seems to indicate that the producers are wildly out of touch with what the majority of the Star Trek audience is about.

      It could be a terrible indicator of your actual performance, if five of your coworkers rated you a ten honestly, but the other five rated you a zero because they hated the Black Lives Matter sign in your cubicle.

        Yeah and if it had absolutely nothing to do with the black lives matter sign, and the person inserted the black lives matter sign as a defense, then what is it?

          Then it is still meaningless if 5 rate you a 10 and 5 a 0. What would this rating say about you?
