I’d say it’s not even woke, it’s an ideal. The Federation is symbolic of a utopian society, something that could be achieved through cooperation and tolerance and understanding.
I really think this is well demonstrated in the second season of Picard when they end up in 2024. It’s very subtle but well done how the characters react to a world with massive suffering and social issues compared to what they’re accustomed to in the Federation.
Wow, you’re missing a LOT of context for the jokes if you’ve never seen any other Star Trek. Still, it’s a credit to them that you can enjoy it regardless.
Yea some of it I’ve had to Google but LDs is really well done. It’s replaced Futurama sleeping for me. Which I thought would never happen. They did the characters so damn well, and the story is great. Some of my friends who are trekkies don’t like LDs, so it seems those of us who have less ST understanding, like it better.
Hides in corner…only having watched lower decks and afraid to understand the rest of ST as a SWs fan…

Didn’t it also have the first multi racial kiss on TV? I remember seeing that somewhere. Which at the time was considered hella woke
Star Trek has always always been moral plays set in space. Politics has been integral to it since the beginning.

Meanwhile, I love Star Trek (mostly the older stuff) and think LD is the best modern Trek show.
Watch it, enjoy it, ignore the fans.
No one hates ST more than Trekkies.
