Star Trek has been utopian space communism from the very beginning.
Science fiction has always been a vehicle for exploring woke ideas. Separating an issue from its current context allows the audience to set aside their biases and look with fresh eyes.
Calling it "woke" like the right does is pejorative.
no it isn't. it means being aware of systemic oppression. don't let those asshats get away with redefining it.
