lmao “reasonable personal opinion” go back to Reddit with that nonsense.

Camp is an intentionally over-the-top stylistic choice, it’s a specific well defined style. It doesn’t just mean “silly” or “cheesy”. Star Trek isn’t camp.

Sorry to be that guy but it’s one of my pet peeves.

NuTrek was coined to refer to the Kelvinverse films (in a pejorative way) for being edgy and shallow like “NuMetal”, but the “anti woke” crowd ruined it just like everything else.

My pet peeve is when people call (Disco and onward) “NuTrek” because that term was created to mock the “NuMetal” Kelvinverse films for their shallowness.

Now it’s mostly used by people who complain about “wokeness” or “forced” diversity or what have you.

It’s partly why /r/StarTrek started it’s “be nice” rule in ~2018. It’s ok to disagree, but to just pee all over something someone liked for no reason other than the fact that they brought up that they liked it is exhausting.

Corgana, to risa in When is season 4 anyway?
@Corgana@startrek.website avatar

it could easily have been set up to actually create a conflict

idk sounds kinda heavy handed on drama

Ok but why is being served everything on a silver platter “contrived progressivism”? You mean because the actress is black?

Can you elaborate on what “forced” means?

I’m so confused reading this thread, what was less “casual” about the queer v straight characters in Discovery?

Are you sure it was in Disco? I’ve seen Disco twice and don’t remember a character who was closeted. What episodes?

Star Trek had a coming out story?

@Corgana@startrek.website avatar

I mean… good typeface design takes a particular type of creative mind, and is also extremely labor intensive. People get masters degrees in typography. A good font is not cheap or easy to produce. It makes sense someone would want to earn money from the effort.

I used to be a mod on /r/StarTrek and everytime we did a fundraiser it was inevitably met with criticisms of some kind. I would usually respond with “That sounds like a great cause too, why don’t you post the receipt (we encouraged users to share recepits) for that instead?” and never once saw it.

it wouldn’t make sense to treat someones sexual orientation or gender to be strange

I’m struggling to recall if this ever happened, can you give an example of when someone’s sexual orientation was treated differently?
