re: #86 wheat-dogg

Similarly, Star Trek has had non-{white male} admirals, captains and bridge officers since TOS. Now, all of a sudden, ST:Discovery is the end of the {white male}.

Like I said yesterday, these people like to live in fear. With no real enemy present, they have to invent one to remain afraid (and/or outraged).

I’d say the fear is in part real, but the reality is that they’re set to become the racial minority. For a people who are born into privilege that they simultaneously refuse to acknowledge and yet expect to cover for their asses, the idea that they or their descendants will be the odds ones out in a future America scares the ever-loving shit out of them.
