Woke show shoots itself in the foot by making women in charge of Starfleet


I'm only calling it woke because Patrick Stewart himself says this show is about Brexit and Trump, but it's kind of funny how they have Starfleet now a xenophobic, racist and isolationist institution with stunning and brave women now in charge. So does this inadvertently imply that Starfleet was benevolent and good back when men when in charge of it and women took over and ruined it. It's like the creative team hasn't fully fleshed out how to fit their political agenda into this.

Good or evil, female characters can be as strong and compelling as male ones, dammit! ;)
