It looks like the upcoming Lower Decks season will be the last one 😭😭 I didn’t have any expectations for this show but it has quickly grown to be one of my favorites. I’ll miss it

    No. I did not. Your argument was that “they should make stuff for other demographics too but to not alienate the current demographic.” It does not make sense. It is centric to the core demographic and pretends that the only demographic that matters is the originating one of fans of previous Trek. That the shows should always keep them in mind and that they should be a core consideration of everything that comes forward. That does not even make sense with the core philosophy of Trek which is inclusion and always looking for the forefront. To change and to grow.

    You can appeal to more than one demographic but not appealing to a certain demographic does not make the show bad. Your argument is in bad faith and is a gatekeepers argument. That is why I boiled it down to “no one else matters but me”. Because that is exactly what you are arguing for. “Make stuff for other people but you need to make it for me so I can enjoy it too.” Like I said, just don’t watch it. It makes no sense and is extremely self centered to look at a show and go “It isn’t for me therefore it isn’t good.”

    I am not continuing this or any conversation with you if this if your behavior is going to be lying about what was said, stuffing words down my throat and then insulting me on top of it.
