Yeah this shit irritates me in part because I feel like Discovery has lazy writing, but it's hard to make those criticisms of it because as soon as you start people dismiss you as a shitlord because they assume you think it's that shit.

There are a lot of people out there who are "totally ok with the gays" but put such a high bar on what constitutes acceptable representation that it starts to feel like bigotry by omission.

Yeah, I agree. That's the thing — I have no problem with whatever "woke" stuff people are complaining about. My complaints are things like "this is the first time anyone in Star Trek (outside of time travel) mentioned inches."

Why are you blaming Disco for something that TNG did?
