  This is an incredibly pessimistic outlook and one I’m glad that, for instance, the makers of Star Trek The Next Generation didn’t share.

  When TNG was coming out, the world was reeling from the stagflation of the 1970s and the economic shocks of Reaganomics and Thatcherism.

  And still TNG is a very optimistic show, that still managed to touch on the issues of its day in a realistic and non-naive manner.

  What a disgusting failure on Christ Carter’s part for this art to reflect current things and attitudes. Doesn’t he know that the point of art is for me to feel smug about being on the right side of history? We must cancel him.
