Here’s an old usenet post where people are complaining that Sisko’s presence was “forced” or “only there to be politically correct”..

Lots of “gems” in that thread, also sad how those “fans” totally still exist and are just as tone deaf.

‘Politically correct’ is what people used to say when they got called out for being awful human beings before ‘woke’ was invented.

RIP Matt-79, you would have hated Star Trek: Discovery lmao
