You... You think the slop we have now is "the best Trek of the decade"? Well then, that tells me everything I need to know.

The worst thing "NuTrek" did was give us villains (cHaNgElInGs) who were unironically more interesting and relatable than the Federation, right up until their ... ally.

Other than that, Trek has always been more about enjoyment than substance, save for some arcs of Deep Space Nine.

No substance? The entire series must've flown right over your head. No wonder you like the uintelligent crap we have now. It's made for people exactly like you.

Which Series are you claiming flew over my head? The original series was far more serious in tone than TNG, and I re-watch all of TNG and DS9 almost yearly. Have you ever even read any of the books?

Between the two of us, I'm not the one dismissing new experiences, new takes, and previous lore out-of-hand.

Yes, you're absolutely right, I'm dismissing these "new experiences" for the complete trash they are. If you're so easily amused by a dangling keychain that's good on you, but don't assume to drag us all down with you.
