This is an interesting comment, actually, because instead of hating on the new shows and comparing them to the old ones, Matt’s hating on the old shows for being politically correct and saying DS9 and Voyager, the then-current shows, are the good ones. Even though DS9 was more diverse and less subtle about its themes, compared to TNG.
Imagine if Dave Cullen, Doomcock, Midnight’s Edge, Nerdrotic, etc. dedicated their careers to saying that the new Star Trek shows were AWESOME because they were less woke than TNG and DS9.

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.
