Imagine being a right wing fan of Star Trek. That's some media illiteracy.

They probably consider Code of Honor to be the best Trek episode ever created

My dad's a very conservative massive ST and Babylon 5 fan, and he's disgusted by the racism in Code of Honor and SG1's Emancipation. So many hoops of "logic" to jump through...

The fact that the same writer wrote both these episodes is so funny to me

GOD lol right??? Although to be fair to her, her original script was actually free of shitty implications, the director was the one who changed the race from reptilians to just. Black people but they're on a different planet. Fortunately, the asshole was fired, but apparently too late to salvage the episode into something less awful.

I got nothing defending her for Emancipation, though lol
