Lots of "gems" in that thread, also sad how those "fans" totally still exist and are just as tone deaf.
This is an interesting comment, actually, because instead of hating on the new shows and comparing them to the old ones, Matt's hating on the old shows for being politically correct and saying DS9 and Voyager, the shows that were currently airing as of 1999, are the good ones. Even though DS9 was more diverse and less subtle about its themes, compared to TNG.
Imagine if Dave Cullen, Doomcock, Midnight's Edge, Nerdrotic, etc. dedicated their careers to saying that the new Star Trek shows were AWESOME because they were less woke than TNG and DS9. That's what this is.
'Politically correct' is what people used to say when they got called out for being awful human beings before 'woke' was invented.
This review was written like 2 years before the first ep of Enterprise aired, right?
My guess is that they meant either TOS, or the starship Enterprise as compared to the space station DS9.
RIP Matt-79, you would have hated Star Trek: Discovery lmao
Or love it.
