I recently had a conversation with a relative telling me they could not watch one of the recent Star Treks because they heard it was “woke”.
It’s Star Trek. It is ALWAYS woke. Star Trek (1966) was woke fifty years before “woke” was defined as a thing.
You can’t have Star Trek without “woke” because that’s what Star Trek is.
Its literally a post-scarcity socialist utopia on Earth
Well, it was. For a glorious forty years or so.
Hey man the burn was just a temporary setback
