    Well maybe you shouldn’t, because back in the '90s, when the phrase that meant the exact same thing back then was “politically correct” and not “woke,” I remember hearing all about how a black station commander, a female captain and a black Vulcan were all “politically correct” and it was ruining Star Trek, which was never like that before.

    Edit: I wrote ‘white’ instead of ‘female’ because I have slept about an hour all night. Yay me.
