This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I mean, they're trying to make a joke but it kinda works better with, idk, Voyager or something (well, maybe gay or black comment but certainly more diverse and highlighting stuff like cultural diversity).

That said, I've seen this exact joke about wokeness already but with TOS, so eh.

Sure, they're trying to make a joke. But, when this kind of thing works as a joke you can go through each item in the list and say "hmm, yeah, I guess" even if as a whole it's clearly not true.

In this case, some of the list items just make no sense, like "black people everywhere" or "pushes gay agenda". If they'd stuck with "woke" and "a captain that Trekkies hated" it could have worked.
