Everyone on star trek has anxiety, panic attacks, ptsd and imposter syndrome now. It is too much!

Barclay was OK. (In TNG.) He had his episodes but they were interesting because of the juxtaposition against the others.

Like >60% of plot & characters are now about anxiety and mental (un)health. It is individuated vs collective.

I also deeply resent the attempt to create equivalency between AI and LGBT people.

No wonder people hate woke.

    sure but i don’t expect progressive media to stay progressive. the point of trying to teach the audience a lesson is that they don’t need the lesson anymore.

    it’s like that Proudhon quote. (and we look back on his bigotry negatively, so he almost got what he wanted)

      Right but claiming black people were half responsible for racism was fucked up in the 60s just as it is now. Just less people recognized it. So it’s a good episode that’s fucking painful to wach.
