Use your checkbook to show sjw companies you dont agree. Plenty of sjw companies out there, and plenty of small competitors dying for a chance to make it big

It won't, because no one will buy it. Sales trump feelings when the balance sheet comes out.

Star trek has always been progressive. But it was enjoyable enough and there was nothing else like it that everyone could enjoy it. It was the the far future so if the captain was fucking green aliens then it's not a big deal he kiss a black human chick.
Also there's been a chick captain already. She fucked shit up and got everyone lost for the entire series.
But I know what the issue is and it lies entirely with the current trend in entertainment. It's not going to be a character that's gay and a captain that's female but a gay character and a female captain. The difference being their gayness and gender will take precedence over their role in the series.
It's like having a disabled character. A character with a disability would be like geordi laforge, you forget he's even disabled. A disabled character will be someone in a wheelchair going "now how am I going to get over these steps? I'll use my determination because it's always me vs the world!" Every other episode. It's shitty writing.

Just looked this up. What a mess - I didn't know it got any worse than Enterprise.
Spock has a sister, with man's name, raised by Sarek and trained on Vulcan and becomes the main character in the Klingon resolution, but "it won't break canon."
Alrighty then.
There's always The Orville. That is if you can stand to look at Seth McFarlane's ugly mug for that long.

Well the first episode way way back used a well known free masons name as the captain of the ship, that should be enough to let people know what the show would be used for
PROPAGANDA
