This is what the #political bent of the people who write this show believe that #justice looks like, says a lot. This #episode was really a flop too, the B #story was really bad. #tilly a #starfleet #officer came back #happy from a #failed #exercise after #crashing a #ship and killing one of the #cadets - it's like these people have a 5 second memory. Really awful writing and #plot .#startrek #discovery has become a #political mess. You have " #trans " #characters , #gay #couples , #minorities , a #women only #leadership (I'm sure that will lead to a great #future of course), a common #threat they must all work together to tackle ( #covid ), a #black woman going around killing #starfleet " #officers " (a call back to #blm ) - I'm sure they won't find a way to #justify that... The #politics is clear. I don't even mind it - I just don't appreciate an #agenda pushed down my throat.

#watched the first #episode of #startrek #prodigy - the #premise is really good: A bunch of #slaves / #miners find an old #federation #ship and #hijack it to #freedom . The #delivery is highly #political though and aimed to #subvert #children . The #zero #character is #genderneutral , one of them looks like a #man but is actually a #woman / #girl , the " white #guy " says the #opposite of whatever anybody says (despite this #plot point falling apart *instantly* as its tiring) and the #black character leads.
