You’re the one who’s missing the point, in a way that betrays your ignorance about the subject. There were no outwardly gay Klingons who preceded Jay-Den. Calling him the first is only imprecise because he’s tied for that title with another character introduced in the same episode.

At that point you're splitting hairs. Like the big poster headline that said Michael Burnham was "the first ever black woman as the lead character", witch both shits all over Nichelle Nichole's contribution and is also true in the idea that Star Trek never had "THE main character", as in singular.

NuTrek is wholly irredeemable.

Your opinion on that could only hold any weight if you’d been watching it, which you obviously haven’t, since you just tried to argue that the creators of Jay-Den tried to steal clout from the creators of Lura Thok.
