Comment on There are exactly two types of Star Trek fans

Don’t get me wrong, I preferred Archer’s Theme, but I quite like Faith of the Heart.
Is it my favourite Trek theme? Of course not. But I don’t think it’s awful. I don’t really get the hate for it either.
(Not a Yank, either)

I dig it. I hate it as a Star Trek theme, don’t get me wrong, but I still think it’s a fun song. The fact that they’ve tacked it onto Star Trek means that it’s part of it now so screw it. Might as well enjoy it.

And what would be so bad if I got you wrong? Do you think that Star Trek fans that enjoy Faith of the Heart and find it to be a good Star Trek theme are not proper Star Trek fans? Because it has to conform to your, and the apparent “majority’s”, elitist view that orchestral intro music is inherently superior, and you think that should you oppose this sentiment, you get branded as a traitor and are evicted from this community or what? What is so bad with liking Faith of the Heart as a Star Trek song??? People have different tastes, and no one on this instance has any authority in the slightest to decide such matters.

You are going to need to back off with this level of hostility.
I never at any point suggested or even remotely hinted towards that and I’d really appreciate you not shoving words into my mouth.

Literally nothing. I simply said I don’t like it as a Star Trek song. At no point did I suggest that there was anything wrong with liking it as a Star Trek song. I merely expressed my own personal opinion.
No one here remotely attempted to.
You need to seriously take a step back and start reading what people say instead of making stuff up between the lines of what people say. If you want clarification then ask for it. But no one here said that there was anything wrong with a Star Trek fan who likes this song. I’m sure as hell not going to say who is and isn’t a real Star Trek fan when I get given shit for merely liking Discovery. All I did was express a differing opinion. That’s it. I’m not going to engage further if you keep up this incredibly hostile attitude.
