Yes, you read that correct.
Remember the thread I made 3 months ago about Sam Maggs writing Star Trek comics?

Well in issue 3 Picard gets mentally raped by a classmate

And then physically beaten by the same classmate after Picard tries to push the rapist away.

And nothing happens about it.
No charges filed. No firing of the cadet who just raped another. Nothing.
Because it happens to a man.
Those of you who will have seen older ST media may remember the concept of mind raping to have been addressed before. Deanna gets mind raped in both the TNG series and later Nemesis movie. T'Pol has a male vulcan force a mind-meld on her in Enterprise that has lasting consequences to her health for several series. Other series also looked into this but as was the case with Deanna and T'Pol the one being mind raped was always a woman.
In this comic Sam Maggs writes Picard being forcefully mindscanned, something likened to rape by many telepathic species both in Star Trek and other franchises, yet there are absolutely zero consequences brought towards the rapist.
So that's Sam Maggs now with "rape advocate and fetishist" to add to the list of things when describing just how badly any works written are.
When they first announced discovery I thought it would be set in the future but of course not because we have to have Spock being mentored by a black woman. Honestly just make a Star Trek show like 50 or 100 years after TNG. Maybe have a new crew exploring a new galaxy
That's what they said end up doing in season 3, taking Discovery to the 31st or 32nd century because the story was so bad it wrote itself into numerous corners that couldn't be resolved into the timeline at all.
The spore drive appearing for all of 2 seasons in the 2200s because the show wanted to ignore warp travel and simply pop up at a new destination every week. The various characters who are all totally super important and yet I nobody has ever mentioned them once. A crew made up of mutineers, cannibals, terrorists, and more yet somehow granted continuing permission to command a starship.
So they simply take the ship into the future. And then shit all over what that future will be by breaking up the Federation during the timeskip, destroying warp technology, and continuing to write the crew of mutineers, cannibals, terrorists, and more like they are some paragons of the Federation instead of who should be in the next torpedo being fired into the sun.
