I guess if you just watched Enterprise you might assume trek isn’t woke
hey! ENT was awesome
They went heavy on Bush doctrine apologism during the xindi storyline though
I think it was more of a 'this is a great opportunity for metaphoric storytelling' than 'let's celebrate the Bush Doctrine' though.
I think it failed, but that's another issue.
Recently watched a couple of episodes and it definitely felt old-fashioned in a way that didn't feel appropriate for show about an utopian society from the early 2000s. At least the original series was progressive for the 1960s, which doesn't necessarily feel "woke" from a 2020s rightwinger perspective.
Or republicans just root for the enemies, that's always a possibility.
