  Say what you will, but I can see the appeal of showing the dirty, shady side of the trek universe. We always see a Starfleet crew of perfectly moral Starfleet officers who go around moralizing through the galaxy and claiming that human society has moved past capitalism and selfishness. I call bullshit on that. Sure you can tell me that earth and the federation planters are now a Utopia and Starfleet is clean and perfect. But I wanna know about the poor humans in society who are still getting fucked and the criminals and underworld that Starfleet ignores.

  Anyways, you can’t tell me that there aren’t gangsters and this kinda stuff in the trek universe.

  As long as strange new worlds keeps its star trek tone, I don’t see why another show can’t have a different tone and feel.
