    Solution? Trans-positive fanfiction that celebrates the parts you’re nostalgic for, but doesn’t financially benefit Rowling

        Trekkie here. People still complain about modern Trek being “woke” unlike their preferred version (which definitely does not talk about “woke” issues through allegory, or something)

          those people are conservatives, and i dont believe they were ever true trek fans, to say that. the problem with nutrek is the showrunners/execs pushing thier own agenda, and “tyring to be offended for thier target audience” of OG trek.

            Again, this is just vibes based. I will not be defending Discovery but Lower Decks is fucking awesome and Strange New Worlds is a solid return to TNG style storytelling. Vaguely gesturing at imagined wokeness is not an argument.
