Back in TOS, Pike said something to the effect of “I’ll never get used to a woman on the bridge” so I’m sure somewhere along the lines someone in production/writing had a good laugh.
And honestly… Who gives a flying fuck.
I didn’t think I would like it because it changes a lot of stuff, but nah. I like what I’ve seen so far, admittedly haven’t gotten too far since my wife wanted to start watching star trek with me and we started on TNG.
ANYONE criticizing “new trek” for “being woke” is an idiot who has no idea about the history of the entire show.
That’s like people getting mad at Rage Against the Machine because they were just such a great NONPOLITICAL band before… And I’ll probably listen to the guy with a PoliSci degree over some rando in oakleys screaming into a phone while sitting in his lifted pickup.
new trek is bad when it’s superficial and action-y, see DIS and PIC, but SNW is true to the spirit of Star Trek, pitching actual sci-fi scenarios and provoking thought.
