I would like to ask this guy* what offensively progressive politics he sees in the Harry Mudd time-loop episode from season 1, or the one where Pike sees his future in the beepy chair. * Don't mean to assume gender here, but come ON

by political, he means the episodes where uhura gets to do something. 15% might be a bit high, even.

Like isn't Discovery just nothing but the standard Trek boilerplate "we need to work together to be something better than ourselves" truisms that every loving Trek show spouts on occasion only said like 15 times an episode because the show is written for paste-eating dipshits who watch TV with one and a half eyes on their phones and don't pick up basic poo poo aka 90% of TVIV posters?

like i wanted to make fun of the vapid bipartisan truism of "slavery is evil" in a tv show that started during the lifetime of people who had been enslaved, and slavery is still in the constitution, but really the better target is the vapid bipartisan truism of "war is bad" because both american parties believe it is, in fact, good.

No no, don't you see, on Discovery there's an actual literal GAY couple, and they occasionally do such explicitly sexual things as BRUSH THEIR TEETH in adjoining sinks at the end of a day, this is therefore an INTENSELY POLITICAL STATEMENT

We killed off one of the gays to up the stakes, but then we found out that is a common negative trope so actually he wasn't dead he is back from the mushroom kingdom, damage undone

Maybe he thinks mushrooms are extremely political

On the internet, the term "political" has been utterly robbed of meaning, or has its meaning replaced by "shows me things I don't like" edit: nine-gear crow posted:There are two genders, male and political davidspackage fucked around with this message at 07:22 on Nov 8, 2023 |

Nah, there are three sexual orientations: straight, political, and sexy hot lesbians who would totally be willing to make an exception for the viewer to have a threesome. MikeJF fucked around with this message at 07:25 on Nov 8, 2023 |

Full disclosure I found that tweet because Steve Shives screenshotted in a video about why conservatives are media illiterate so it doesn't surprise me at all that he's a turbo dipshit about a LOT of things.

Crab Worf represents the proletariat. Hardy, armored and strong, living in the maintenance passage ways. Caveman Riker represents the illusion of class mobility in late capitalism, living in the captains ready room thinking he’s part of the upper class, but easily dispatched by the real captain when no longer necessary. Frog Troi represents the bourgeois. A fat pile of slime just sitting around sucking up air and water and changing the environmental controls to make everyone else miserable. Spider Barclay is the Vanguard Party, showing the people the new paradigm and seizing control of the means of production (the warp core room). It’s all extremely political.

Conservatives are media illiterate because their ideology needs them to be. They demand to be winning at all times, and that meams everything has to be agreeing with them, and since most things really don't, that means they have to get real loving stupid to believe that they do.

I kinda loved the implication on the Majalis planet that they discovered the child eating computer and went "oh no, anyway" Loved the next ep too, the Captain Angel was chewing that scenery up.
