I guess I’m just less charitable because the DS9 writers did admit (I’ll have to find the quotes later) they just didn’t care about queer issues back then. As an openly queer person myself, I wish Star Trek back then was a trail blazer but it wasn’t.
@startrekexplained Let me clarify. I believe the writers wanted to openly ship them, and didn’t because Paramount was trying to make it a political issue. I firmly believe existing is not political and trying to make it that way is pretty cowardly.
I’d need to see some evidence beyond jokes in a documentary made 20 years after the show ended.
