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.
ding ding ding, nailed it. It’s depressing how heavy the crackdown has gotten, in the 60s you could still make trek as long as you didn’t explicitly say “the federation is a mature communist society”.
