They already said in this show, the Klingons represent the Trump voters. They say this is an even handed “nobody is clearly right or wrong” situation but come on, Klingons? The iconic VILLAIN in Star Trek? Yeah, like they are going to be shown to be in the right in any way. When they picked my least favorite performer from Walking Dead to be the PC show lead (black female, a twofer!) I knew I’d not pay for this. When they announced that the bad guys were Trump voters, I refused to watch the free one.

People (not counting young white girls) still fall for guilt trips?

Good Gawd, the negroes are bullying everyone who doesn’t agree with them, aren’t they? I will never be bullied by this cr@p, never.

It’s 12 percent of the U S population causing at least 75 percent of the crime and social/cultural malaise.

Wow.

I stand. Because he can’t.

I render honors with my right hand. Because he can’t.

The more I think about Krappernick and his loathsome kneeling buddies, the more repulsive they are.

Social media is like guns.
The consequences of not thinking can kill.

Never will I watch this sinking show.

it seemed to me to be as if piece of fan fiction and made a episode. the program suffered from all sorts of problems.

1. did not do a good job of introducing characters.
2. continuity problems with the old star trek.
3. stupid 10 Minuit introduction at the beginning.

So much for my willingness to give the show a chance.

Look, the NFL is committing suicide, let’s Join Them!

REALLY! Is there no one, on the Left, with two brain cells to rub together. These people seem to actually believe that they represent what Americans think. Delusional.

What is the framework or process for even trying to find common ground?

They are not interested in "common ground". They want money. They want to have the jobs white/asian people have without having to, ya know, study and do well at school, or, learn a trade. No, just gimme. Everything is just "gimme".

No one, in my family, ever had slaves. My ancestors came in way after that. Never had enough money to have any power over anyone else. I resent just being thrown into this pile of "deplorables" as if I am the problem with the American Black Community.

They are the problem. Marriage, not skin color, is what makes the difference in the quality of your life. Blacks decided that getting married was "acting white", so they have given up on it. All those spoiled children "taking a knee" out on the field, are the result of that lack of a father in the home.

The program is not on regular Network TV. It is for streaming. CBS has a habit of running regular programming immediately after NFL games, which run long. I haven't watched 60 minutes for many, many years. Had regular problems with "NCIS Los Angeles", starting on time and blending over into the Hillary Propaganda Piece (Secretary of State) on a regular basis.

Recorded Star Trek Discovery, and like you faced Oprah and some kind of panel. I went elsewhere quickly.

It's almost like they know how bad STD is, and so stream it, rather than broadcast it on regular TV.

After these antics, I will not make any attempt to watch Star Trek Discovery, or the NFL in the future. So problem solved.
