Yeah this is a stupid ass take. The show isn't enough of what people liked about startrek. That's not the audiences fault, it's the showrunner's fault, who famously didn't watch startrek, didn't care about the IP, didn't care what people liked about it and just wanted to use the IP to promote ideology and worldview. Aka propaganda. Atleast the OS to Enterprise era gave us enough of what we liked that we could sit through what we didn't. Just because trek was progressive doesn't mean all the fanbase was on board with all of it. The progressiveness wasn't the only thing of value that it was. This latest installment failed to strike that balanced at all because it intentionally and arrogantly and sadistically refused to even attempt to.
