The commonly touted fallacy of Nu Trek shills is that we hate Nu Trek because "old good, new bad," but the reality is that true Star Trek fans are starved for the real thing. We badly, badly desire Nu Trek to be good but it falls so utterly and disastrously short of what are ultimately reasonable and forgiving expectations that we can do nothing but shake our heads in disgust at the misuse of the franchise.

A show like Lower Decks is insulting to our intelligence. It doesn't even matter if it's good (though it isn't) because its very existence is a sham -- an example of shameless profiteering and shoddy market research when Paramount does literally everything in the world except make a post-VOY Star Trek series that carries things forward in the model of what came before.

We've entered the age of mimicry in art. It's pathetic really, everything is just rehashing something older and superior.

Being a fan doesn't mean abandoning your ability to think critically, retard. You can make as many excuses as you like for your insultingly low barrier for entry on media you consume but they will ultimately be just that: excuses.

Don't worry, we can just blast through this one really quick and act like it never happened
