Nothing from the show itself? A script or youtube clip?

What does “forced inclusion” mean? What makes it different from regular inclusion?
- Comment on It's sad that people completely misunderstand what Star Trek is about. 2 months ago:
I don’t believe any of this is supported by what we saw on screen. Do you have evidence to support these claims? Maybe just a line of dialogue for each claim?
- Comment on It's sad that people completely misunderstand what Star Trek is about. 2 months ago:
the term “forced inclusion,” which I didn’t raise.
…this you?
I can’t reply qualitatively unless you explain which part confuses you.
The part that confuses me is what “forced inclusion” means and what makes it different from regular inclusion.
- Comment on It's sad that people completely misunderstand what Star Trek is about. 2 months ago:
Your examples provided made no mention of “forced inclusion” or what makes it different from regular inclusion.
- Comment on It's sad that people completely misunderstand what Star Trek is about. 2 months ago:
Your two examples didn’t explain what “forced inclusion” means and what makes it different from regular inclusion.
- Comment on It's sad that people completely misunderstand what Star Trek is about. 2 months ago:
It is exactly that. Same with the meltdowns over Adira.
- Comment on It's sad that people completely misunderstand what Star Trek is about. 2 months ago:
Your explanation didn’t explain what “forced inclusion” means and what makes it different from regular inclusion. Maybe you could give an example of each from Star Trek?
- Comment on It's sad that people completely misunderstand what Star Trek is about. 2 months ago:
For instance, the script may be as blunt as a character saying “Wow, I can’t believe you made it this far despite being a [marginalized out-group]
Ok makes sense but did SFA do that? If so, when?
- Comment on It's sad that people completely misunderstand what Star Trek is about. 2 months ago:
yeah sure so im curious to know what “forced inclusion” means and how we’re supposed to tell it apart from regular inclusion.
- Comment on It's sad that people completely misunderstand what Star Trek is about. 2 months ago:
I saw that but I didn’t see anything about what makes inclusion “forced” in one series but not in another.
- Comment on It's sad that people completely misunderstand what Star Trek is about. 2 months ago:
some people believe that star trek discovery had a story arc about a character coming out as non-binary.
- Comment on It's sad that people completely misunderstand what Star Trek is about. 2 months ago:
Uhh Kirk and Uhura were most definitely not in a relationship, they were forced to kiss against their will.
- Comment on It's sad that people completely misunderstand what Star Trek is about. 2 months ago:
Lol “muddy” about sums it up
- Comment on It's sad that people completely misunderstand what Star Trek is about. 2 months ago:
That’s a lot of words to not provide a single example from a show of what makes “forced inclusion” different than “inclusion”
- Comment on It's sad that people completely misunderstand what Star Trek is about. 2 months ago:
I like how in Discovery a character came out as non-binary and everyone is like “ok cool” and that was that and it was never brought up again (because why would it be)?
You can tell by the absolute meltdown conservative spaces had about that five second clip that it was absolutely the right thing to do.
- Comment on It's sad that people completely misunderstand what Star Trek is about. 2 months ago:
Are you one of those people who believes Discovery had a coming out as nonbinary plot
- Comment on Or horribly right, I guess. 2 months ago:
Such a supportive wife

Probably more than you think, remember we never actually saw the full interior of the Ent-D’s main shuttle bay. It’s massive.
- Comment on What's your favorite ship or class of ship? 2 months ago:
Excelsior class? Why in God’s name would you want that bucket of bolts?
- Comment on What's your favorite ship or class of ship? 2 months ago:
Not sure if it’s my absolute favorite, but I have always been unusually impressed with the creative design of the D’Kora class:

If I tried that with DS9 I would be glued to the screen within the first ten minutes.
- Comment on What's your favorite ship or class of ship? 2 months ago:
Also quite fond of pre-Burn Discovery’s “retro-futuristic Art Deco” style.
There are dozens of us!
