They're not "too political" or "woke," they're written by terrible committees and the executive producers / show runners are hacks.

Lower Decks (and Prodigy, I'm told) excluded.

No, this is Patrick (and perhaps Jonathan?)

No, I'm pretty sure it's Malcolm Reynolds and Wash.

It is an insane leap to call this gatekeeping when it's actively making fun of gatekeeping. If the line ended with Odo/Quark, sure, but it doesn't. The name is misspelled. Directly making fun of people who claim to be gatekeepers while knowing nothing about what they're talking about.

Agreed. I am very fond of star trek already and i am only 10 episodes into the original series. I believe it will take several months if not year before i get to know the characters in this picture.

They deliberately misspelled Obi too.

Data and Neelix

Good ships.

I want this character to appear in Star Trek

It's one of the lost serials.

* Oboe.

Quarks name is misspelled. They should've given him a duck head to make it more obvious

That is because there are many series with each their own characters.

Even those that only played Star Trek Online can consider themselves trekkies.

We don't gatekeep.

You should consider watching the Lower Decks episode "Hear All, Trust Nothing" if nothing else.

Noooo, you need to watch every episode pay for extra subscription services just to watch every new episode the day it is release.

Honestly anyone can get into star trek if they want to

Yes
