>“The allegory is that we really started working on the show in earnest around the time the election was happening,” showrunner Aaron Harberts told Entertainment Weekly. “The Klingons are going to help us really look at certain sides of ourselves and our country. Isolationism is a big theme. Racial purity is a big theme. It raises big questions: Should we let people in? Do we want to change? There’s also the question of just because you reach your hand out to someone, do they have to take it? Sometimes, they don’t want to take it. It’s been interesting to see how the times have become more of a mirror than we even thought they were going to be.”
>“North Korea is in our thoughts as we finish the series,” he says. “What began as a commentary on our own divided nation — in terms of Trump supporters and non-Trump supporters — has blown out to North Korea and how we’re right on the brink. [The U.S. is] actually right at the place where Starfleet finds itself in episode one and we couldn’t have anticipated that happening. But how do you end conflict when both sides have such strong opinions?”
I wish people would stop implying Hollywood has become nothing buts a left-wing propaganda factory. Geesh.

Not butthurt, but disappointed. It's a big letdown, sort of like finding out Ben Affleck is going to be Batman.
I don't understand why they felt the need to change the look of the Klingons in the first place. I don't even care that they're trying to be SJWs or whatever but there is just no valid reason to change an already established character race like that without drastically rebooting the whole franchise. They say they aren't doing that but it looks clearly like they are. Why would they keep alienating their core fanbase like this? I haven[t ever understood what the hell CBS is even doing with the property. They should sell it off to someone who isn't just going to milk it for fucks sake.

>I don't understand why they felt the need to change the look of the Klingons in the first place. harberts said the old brown make-up was too "racist", hence the change to purple. and since the changed colors they had to change it all up.

why are neckbeards triggered so easily?

So the Klingons are black North Korean white supremacist Trump supporters
Wat?
Chase Powell
It's funny that people like James Worthy considered wearing it to be a great honor.

Wait, they're changing the way Klingons look? Why? They looked fine the way they were before. They should've just made a new species instead.
Those people don't even watch TV shows, user. Why are they pandering to twitter shitters?

I guess space mongols (?) aren't topical enough. Also can't have them look like they used to, because that would apparently be racist and shit. Also Donald Drumpf.
Seriously what the fuck. Who the fuck is this show supposed to be for? Is it too much to ask to get a scifi show without current political shit and drama everywhere being thrown into it?

If there's one thing that this show no one asked for on a CBS streaming service that no one wants to spend money on needs, it's hamfisted political moralizing. That will surely help it to succeed and not ensure that it's dead on arrival.

making a quick little joke on the internet is one thing. Dedicating your entire show to shoehorn in this big point about your views on politics when it isnt needed at all is pathetic.

You seem a tad jelly desu. Right wing authors are too busy alienating people by their garbage to afford an audience as wide as those brought in by star trek which has been premised on the basis of something akin to liberalism.

Nathan Lopez
>when liberals are upset, they cry and censor and suppress and change language to destroy "offensive" thought
And everything written or created in your "frustration" in recent years has been absolute shit. Even when the idea starts out interesting, it inevitably takes that "left turn" and destroys any believably, breaks it's own internal as well as dramatic rules to reach the conclusions it's agenda demands.
Or you just steal something made by far superior creative minds and gender or race flips some key roles, then drive it off a cliff.
You're intellectually and creatively bankrupt.

Not only have they arbitrarily changed the look of klingons, the change doesn't even make sense canonically. Klingons were regular looking dudes in TOS, and STD is meant to happen 10 years before that. These retarded idiots are injecting their stupid beliefs into the show, and it's going to fail terribly for it
