They made a Star Trek for Dads. Picard. That was even worse than this.

Whilst thinking about the comments in this thread over time randomly last night, and in particular the critisms people have put, like not knowing who everyone on the bridge was and all that I thoigh about how past bridges were framed and tempt touched on it in the sense of TNG. There is certainly something about how the arcs have been written for Discovery which is wildly different to TNG and past Treks, the episodes of which I've found can often be isolated, in as much as really it doesn't matter what order they're watched if you just want a Trek fix. You cannot get that from Discovery which to its credit has been unashamedly bash and queer and ignorant of what Trek fans of old expected. I guess the ultimate problem of Trek is were decades and decades on from the originals so justifying techie bollox as some sort of achievable future just isn't worth it, most sci-fi of yore contextually should already exist and it doesn't so if you are interested in making something which is fiction and futurist and science like then why not tackle the patriarchal hetronormative yt liberal tropes that have dogged so much of it?
Picard: Where is Bok?
Riker: Removed from command, sir, and placed under guard for his act of personal vengeance – seems there was no... profit in it.
Picard: In revenge, there never is.
