    I care on how it’s done, what the writers do with it. I despise the current writers of Trek and they haven’t been able to make a single interesting topic, or do anything interesting with the topics they borrowed.

    I hear “gay Klingon” and all I see is another excuse to call everyone who hates NuTrek a bigot.

      You know, there’s a solid case to be made for what you’re saying, but you should know you’re not doing a good job of making it.

      I think there are people who would agree that the choices seem shallow or pandering (not a claim I’m making, just recognizing others might). But if you don’t say clearly why the writing disappoints you, you don’t have any justification to be indignant when people assume that it’s because you’re a bigot.

      I’m not accusing you of that. I’m just telling you how your comment reads.

        How many comparisons to DS9 and TNG need to be made before people who defend NuTrek finally get it?

        I’ve tried the long ass format of showing before. In great detail. It gets the exact same reaction as what I currently write. So what’s the bloody point?
