Star Trek is just gay as fuck lol. It's cool to see the space ships as a little kid, but grown adults liking star trek are always gay little losers. I rank them lower than adult superhero and Star Wars fans. There's a handful of episodes of TOS and TNG that are decent TV, literally the entire rest of the franchise is retard tier

Why does this look like Rick and Morty?

Okay. Anything else?

Kurtzman, is that you?

Ok, good for you.

The gayness is what makes it cool

If you watched Star Trek for the spaceships, you spent a lot of time sitting through political intrigue and civil unrest just to see a bit of dated special effects.

>political intrigue
How come the only thing people remember from the original Star Trek is Kirk fucking alien women then?

Never watched star trek but i love gay shit so i guess ill pick it up
Thanks OP

The show was, by design, incredibly horny. It kept the network censors too occupied trying to keep things from getting too saucy and not paying attention to how the political message of the show was deeply critical of american government and culture, especially its attitude to race relations and military practices

>ur stoopid n' gay if u liek tv show i dont like.

Okay.

You threw the whole fishing pole in, retard

I think the creator worked on Rick and Morty

Yes.

There's a lot of this but it's also the fact that most people who watched the original were only children. There's also the fact that Kirk was a classic pulp fiction protagonist and that's what sticks out.

I miss the days when DS9 was considered the most un-Trek show.

I never thought I'd say that I miss Rick Berman either. But, here we are.

>t. Star wars s()yboy

What’s your favorite episode where Sisko violates the Federation charter and gets away with it?

Any episode where his eyes go really wide, he gets right in someone's face and yells a lot.

It's probably just me, but the newer generation of writers don't seem to know how to write their stories while mixing their politics or beliefs in. The way they do it, it's like mixing oil and water together. It doesn't help that special interest groups only serve to suck out as much fun as possible grom stories these days.

Well, it's not to say that Star Trek has to be apolitical or anything. But, you can do it in a way that still fits within established canon. Like, randomly making the Federation into xenophobes just to do a Muh Trump and Muh Refugees reference isn't good writing. But, I can see how it could have been spun. Maybe it could have been about the Klingon Empire dealing with an influx of refugees due to the complete destruction of the Romulan Star Empire instead, for instance.

I didn't say I want it apolitical, because the older Star Trek wasn't exactly apolitical either. I guess what I'm saying is that stuff like the new Dr Who represents everything wrong with current media.

No, I get what you're saying. I just mean that writers today can be a bit more clever.

I'll say that as bad as Trek is, it's still not Doctor Who. But, the BBC is a special kind of fucked.

They can, but only if thet get their heads out of their asses and not take offense when people dislike their works

But if you dislike a WOKE work because it doesn't fit within established canon than you're just a racist nazi dudebro!

That thinking is how Chuck Wendig got into writing Star Wars.

>dudebro

Stuff like this makes me rethink my initial dislike for jocks.

You know what I love about Discovery and Picard what massive fucking own goals they are for the writer's political message.

The federation is a post-scarcity socialist utopia where every sentient being from every conceivable background is perfectly equal. It also never starts wars of aggression and captains are willing to die before breaking the prime directive and they will still help out warp-capable species if they ask for it.
Not to mention the crews and captains of their ships just fly around space dabbing on authoritarians and intolerant species.

But what do the writers do to show everyone how woke they are? They turn the federation into an authoritarian shithole where people can be poor (without money) and racist who won't help refugees (just so we know fuck drumpf).
Also, their metaphors don't make sense.
The Romulans are refugees right? But they're also the space racists and the bad guys (and disturbingly infiltrators seeking to subvert the federation).
Also, the federation is implied to be incompetent self-serving and authoritarian, but every single person in a leadership role is a woman. So what, are women incompetent?

I just don't get it why destroy your own ideal outcome to show people how woke you are by implying refugees are evil subversive infiltrators and women are incompetent?

OP, are you implying that posting on Yea Forums is more chad than literally being an astronaut? You may not be gay but you are a faggot

That's why I only watch DS9, which has at least a dozen episodes that are decent TV.

When he went full exterminatus on a Maquis colony.

Because this is a case where multiple writers are not speaking to each other.

One tries to build up, the other tears down, but no one's in agreement to which should be which. Which results in a clus
terfuck.

cause people self insert

I have no problem with them deciding to back away from being the main force in the alpha quadrant or being a bit racist. at least they aren't complete maniac's like Janeway
