The progressivism isn’t the problem. It’s the artlessness of it that is. The TOS episode with the white & black aliens is considered one the the most lazily crafted allegories on television, yet it’s still more subtle than anything they’ve put out since 2017.
That was like his tamest comment generally. He said DS9 invokes three different Jewish stereotypes with three different alien races, the Ferengi merchants, the peaceful Bajorans, and the Cardassian occupation.
If progressive means that 'women can do no wrong' then that's about right as I remember for years how (correctly) Janeway was referred to as a war criminal that you had the former insurgents going 'bitch chill it with the genocides!'
On the otherside, DS9 and to some extent Enterprise showed how 'progressive' policy will always be shelved for pragmatism when shit hits the fan.
Progressive because, what, you don't want society to progress or something? You're holding back the species, man. Why, yes, progressing as a society means communism, duh.
And fans in quotes means someone who likes something but they criticize it in defiance of BUY NEW PRODUCT then they're not a real fan but instead entitled man baby -ists and -phobes.
Hell, 1990's progressivism is 2020's conservatism.
Wait another 40 years.
"Yes, conservatives have always been LGBT2SLMNOPBBQ, but also giving necrophiliacs the same 5x voting power that all queerfolx get is just too far."
There's a Stonetoss comic for that https://stonetoss.com/comic/mud-slinging/
See Donald Trump being called a nazi for having economic and social policies slightly more progressive than Bill Clinton.
can confirm. My principals have hardly changed, but where I was once a liberal commie I am now apparently a KKK fascist.
Obligatory.
dang you beat me

I don't exactly have a wormhole next door, Gul.
I've never removed a comment for anyone being identified as a jew or possibly jewish.

It wasn't just a comparison of stereotypes, it was that he specifically pointed out that they were the Dominion, as a race.
Umm, galaxies are mostly empty space. They'd be very low on the "density" scale.
Maybe what they mean is mass? But then black holes would be in the wrong place.
Either way, lefties are fucking stupid.

It's true, however Progressivism only metastasised as a cancer in the 2000s.
What does progressive mean?
Furthermore, since they put it in quotes, who do they consider to be the true "fans" of Star Trek?
"Progressive" is context-sensitive. Today's "progressives" are degenerates wanting to destroy the society built by yesterday's "progressives."

....They think the galaxy is just 4 times denser than the fucking sun?
