Star Trek is too PC, part one million

2020-09-02 numerous comments on 'Star Trek: Discovery' Makes Franchise History With First Trans, Non-Binary Characters (archive.org has some which were removed)
- "In space is the best place for transickos / Off this planet Is a start. / Vile things."
- "Star Trek has been completely taken over by these freaks."
- "Can we get some decent scripts instead of trans propaganda?"
- "It’s ironic that these two nuts are on a science fiction show because science supports neither one of them." -- except it does
- "The trans cult is trying to erase women and take away single sex spaces."

2020-09-03 08:41 @BluskyeAllison “1/ This has been one of the most depressing 24 hours I’ve ever had on Gender Critical Twitter. / To be clear: every woman & girl must know that their sex-based rights will disappear if they do not pay attention & join this struggle.”
- To someone not familiar with the vocabulary, this undoubtedly comes across as someone sincerely concerned about women's rights. The combination of "gender critical" plus "sex-based rights", however, is a pretty clear indication that she's talking about trans people.
- The fact that she doesn't say anything overtly offensive, yet is also (if you know what she's talking about) clearly taking a strong stand against rights for trans people, leaves us with an intense feeling of being attacked and yet with nothing obvious to refute. strategic ambiguity
- The intense emotion expressed ("one of the most depressing 24 hours I’ve ever had", "rights will disappear if they do not pay attention & join this struggle") only adds to the sense of danger.
- My retweet goes into a bit more depth.
