Star Trek: Discovery's Next Phase of Confusion
Channel: Continuum Meditations
Date: 2017-08-01

The philosophy of Star Trek: Discovery has already been called into question as running counter to Star Trek's classical foundations. This has been noted from STD's blatant intention to depart from Gene Roddenberry's long-standing tenet of avoiding prolonged conflict between primary characters to its asserted desire to inject a hard dystopic vision of the future into Star Trek's DNA.

In this video, I highlight two further developments that suggest, once again, that Star Trek is in the hands, not just of those who do not understand it, but those who are fixated on transforming it forever from the Star Trek we have known into a wholly bastardized version bereft of any semblance of its former template.
