   Maybe it's because they are using Trek as a vehicle for their agenda   
   instead of looking to make an interesting show to watch.  All Trek   
   series had their stupid social agendas in there somewhere (The   
   Outcast, anyone?) but original Trek was sold as "wagon train to the   
   stars," not "Hey look, we care about diversity, no straight white guys   
   in the main cast!"
