The latest Star Trek iteration turns a great American story into a woke farce.
Star Trek cadets are now required to get DEI training from an obnoxious lesbian

"What is that? A smug lesbian virtue-signaling with her strident Karen Power is supposed to be appealing, someone we can relate to, someone to aspire to? Does that teacher look like she should be training people to handle Starships or blowing whistles at ICE agents in Minnesota?"
"Forty years ago, as a young USA Today reporter, I interviewed Leonard Nimoy about Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home. Nimoy was un-Spock-like giddy about the commercial and critical hit he directed and co-starred in. “The biggest laugh,” he said, “came when McCoy says to Kirk about my still mentally addled Spock [Mr. Spock had “died” two films earlier in the classic Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan], ‘He really has gone where no man has gone before.’ Because if you think about it — how did Dr. McCoy know that this was the line that opened every Star Trek episode?” To which I said, “Maybe that’s the Starfleet credo.” “Good point,” Nimoy said.
"I forgot all about the interview for three years, until I watched a scene in the inferior next film, Star Trek V: The Final Frontier, directed by William Shatner. In it, Kirk, Spock, and McCoy are hiding from the brainwashed crew in what resembles the Enterprise lighthouse room, near the statue of an 18th century mariner at the wheel of his ship. At one point, the camera pans down from the mariner to the statue’s plinth and the inscription on it, To boldly go where no man has gone before, as the most famous eight notes of the Star Trek theme play.
"My possible small contribution to the legend of Star Trek was more respectful and knowledgeable than anything in the awful Star Trek: Starfleet Academy. The show is so caricaturishly woke, it suggests popular X sci-fi commenter Jon del Arroz could be right claiming it crosses the line into based parody. But that would require the slightest degree of Dr. Strangelovian wit, sophistication, and artistry totally missing from the series." . . .

"You can disappoint the fans. You can enrage the fans. But once you get to a point when they just don’t care anymore, your franchise is dead, as are any hopes of redeeming it. The fans are done, so let me ask Paramount this…"
The parodical Child, the Babylon Bee just couldn't pass this up:
Kathleen Kennedy Sad To Leave Lucasfilm Before She Got The Chance To Make A Trilogy About Rey’s First Period
. . . "At publishing time, Kathleen Kennedy was sad to leave Star Wars but said that she would always be proud that she produced a series about a coven of lesbian space witches conceiving children by the Force." . . .
