Watched the first two episodes of 'Lower Decks'.
You're supposed to 'rock out' with the death metal loving 'black female lead', while laughing at the danger-hair beta male. The subtext is so obviously woke that I fail to see why some of you tried to give this a pass. Perhaps it will get better later on, but you'll have to suffer through all the 'I got this' college/social media female humor throughout.
The Joss Whedon quippy writing, the uber-competent females, the obnoxious black female captain, the obnoxious black female lead, and the less than impressive male side characters.
This show is also part of the hostile take over of the Star Trek franchise by left-liberal feminist writers.
People still give a shit about Star Trek?
I liked the woman captain a lot. Watched most of it back in the day. Then it died for me and that's perfectly fine
Same with X-men after the first few movies. I tried watching the most recent one and... meh.
We will always give a shit about Star Trek. For us Trekkies it was a huge part of our childhood and most of the classic Trek series' episodes still hold up well today.
It was also an important part of the culture. We shouldn't let them just take it.
It was a huge part of mine as well. Borg, that alien race (732?) Khan, Picard, I personally really liked the female captain, Data, the guy who is blind....
... but its been dead for a while. Let it go.
Same with star wars. Its dead.
She's so annoying.
Has 'Current Thing Black Female Role' written all over it.
