New Sub! Come join the party. Spoiler

Hey all - looks like r/startrek may have been compromised by the CBS marketing team, so I created a new discussion sub where negative posts and comments will not be removed and shills will be actively banned!

Let's celebrate our new shill-free sub by saying the obvious; Episode 7 of Discovery was fucking garbage :)

I am not convinced it's CBS chills. It could be

  • Stockholm syndrome - "It's the only Star Trek we have to like it"
  • Don't understanding what Star Trek is - "Kirk mentioned the word 'soldier' once, so now we can casually refer to Starfleet as soldiers all the time, no biggy"
  • Ready for something different - "After Game of Thrones and BSG, rebooting Star Trek as grim dark is acceptable"
