I am a scientist. Most of the people I work with are nerds. Many of my close friends are too. We’ve all had the discussions about Star Trek, who is the best captain, which series captures the true essence of the techno-optimism , etc etc… no one I know has seen this show. It’s not a left right thing either, they just tried to use the Skinsuit to attract a new “modern” audience. Which never seems to show up. It’s just so strange so many brands do this.

I think it’s an excellent reflection on our society’s collective narcissism. Ham fisted and cheesy as the older series were, they at least discussed big ideas. What is the purpose of law? What does it mean to be living? What would a society driven by this or that vice or virtue look like?

Those big ideas are replaced by the personal. What does it mean to be a minority in a majority setting? What does it mean to be a gay alien? Blah blah blah. It’s the same story told over and over.

They’re not asking what would a warrior culture look like, they’re just making the warrior gay and lame.
