Black actor claims people loved a black led Star Trek show 30s years ago. Those same fans are now called toxic because of woke politics/DEI

Clifton is that dope trying to do a Thomas Sowell one-man play. Of COURSE he fukking up.

White people HATED that shyt back then. Not all, but enough. Gene Roddenberry stayed on folks necks trying new things. The Uhura and Kirk kiss was some shyt that could have gotten folks banned.

Inna minute im gonna start sounding like the Coli militants of the mid 2010s cause this is some #newblack shyt. What happened to John Boyega with Star Wars was old news for black people in Star Trek.

These anti woke people are delusional.

But that's why he's still the best Captain, despite their best efforts.

EDIT: Blue check "I don't see race" nikkas need to be put in a fukking Guillotine. This cocksucker never watched an episode of DS9, if he thought cacs didn't have a problem with "Far Beyond the Stars."

It’s funny you know that meme white people got about “Men thinking about Rome daily” and I find myself thinking about Star Trek daily. The idea of a multi cultural future wasn’t woke. It was normal, and the whole show was about government employees discovering things, communicating fairly with people unlike themselves, and helping people. Its the Antithesis of the path this country is going on and it’s almost like people have forgot that is an option.

DS9 and Sisko was especially dope because he kept it real, was the boss, and was proud of his blackness. Now we don’t have anything like that on TV at all. Even Star Trek like Star Wars is more focused on nostalgia than it is on the original premise and right now more than ever we need media like Star Trek to remind people being full of hate and ignorance is not how we advance.

I see Clifton has used that template for a bunch of shows and movies. He's also damn near a parody of a TLR Bothsider

I've said for a while that most of the new Grifters just took old Coli talking points (good or bad) and made a profit out of it.

He's warning that the current socio political White power climate dictates Black people of prominence in media be replaced..you will begin to soon see less Black faces in media unless confined to podcasts and mixtapes.

I didn't know Avery Brooks faced racism behind the scenes at DS9






That's probably why he doesn't fukk with ST anymore

While we are on this topic, thread reminds me of this dope pic posted in TFR a while back of all the notable Black characters in the various Star Trek shows/movies over the years

CAC gonna CAC IRL but I love the on screen representation of Black people in the Star Trek franchise
