National Review Editor Flips Out Over Abrams/Star Trek

“Would Star Trek ever dream of making Donald Trump ‘President of Earth’? And I don’t mean in the way that the evil genetic superman Khan Noonien Singh once despotically ruled one-quarter of earth’s population.

“In classic Trek fashion, Abrams is shown as the logical and inevitable result of the kind of technocratic progressivism that the show has long advanced, a fruition of our highest ideals.

“Her behavior in the political sphere does not seem to bear this out. Apart from the election denial, there was this infamous photo, showing her reveling in the disparity of being maskless while surrounded by masked children.

“Given this, why hold her up as a model?” – National Review editor Jack Butler, in an opinion column published yesterday.

There’s a lot of work to do. Are you ready for that?https://t.co/zW1iluAW2z#StarTrek #StarTrekDiscovery#UnitedEarth #OneGeorgia pic.twitter.com/vgcZPtoVRd

So National “White Nationalist” Review lost their shit over @staceyabrams’ cameo on the season finale of @StarTrek Discovery … be a shame if they were bombarded with this picture from 1968 of Captain Kirk kissing Lt. Uhura. pic.twitter.com/Bx2ViIv0NN
