You're ascribing a lot of emotional baggage to what I typed on my phone while pedaling a stationary bike that doesn't exist.

I'm not here to argue the finer points of plot holes in these productions that have been under spotlights for years and detailed far better by people with enough time to make hundreds of videos on the subjects like Robert Meyer Burnett, Nitpicking Nerd, and Red Letter Media.

If you enjoy these shows, fantastic, more power to you. Just don't tell me they're amazingly well-made and just as good as previous incarnations of Star Trek when they can and have been analyzed ad nauseam, displaying exactly how they aren't.

I'm not expecting everyone agree whether or telling anyone whether or not they should or shouldn't like it, but there are many more demonstrable issues with writing and plotting, let alone canon, that exist in excess throughout Discovery, Picard, and SNW. These are objective issues that actual writers have taken issue with, and they're consistent issues with the executive producers involved.

Absolutely TNG or DS9 aren't some pantheon of perfection, but from an overall standpoint of consistency, narrative continuity, and proper handling of characters and their development? They're lightyears beyond the juvenile handling of characters and plots in the post 09 FMV shows. It's just fact.

They're not "too political" or "woke," they're written by terrible committees and the executive producers / show runners are hacks.

Lower Decks (and Prodigy, I'm told) excluded.

I'm speaking from experience.

What if I told you, "not necessarily?"

I'm going to call him Markardies now.

He is busy having an entirely heterosexual dinner date with his heterosexual female Christian girlfriend.
