    Picard is really bad. First episode literally has space fox news with the host saying romulan lives don't matter. And the show heavily implies that poverty exists on Earth despite literally every other show being extremely explicit that it hasn't for centuries.

      Why the fuck is Raffi living in a literal trailer in the desert, complaining that she lost her job and can’t afford a better house? What happened to the utopian post-capitalist future? Fuck it, add more Romulan ninjas decapitating refugees.

        doesn't she basically call out Picard for his white privilege? it'd be based if the context made sense

        as RLM pointed out, there's even a TOS episode where Abraham Lincoln (long story) had to explain what intrahuman racism was to the crew because it hadn't existed in their culture for centuries
