WHY?!?!?!
Because you’re a sexist, racist and you live in the past. At least that’s what most people say to any criticism of the new STD
What.
That’s the social media response to any form of criticism of the trailer(s) and the new show. You’re not excited about the cast? That means you hate women, or black women, or asian women, which means you’re a a sexist and/or a racist. You dare to criticise how the trailer looks like? That means you’re a nerd and/or you live in the past. (Or my favourite - you don’t like that it looks like the JJ movies? That means you want the show to be filmed in SD, 4:3, with paper walks and toys on strings - like any of that except the 4:3 aspect ration was true for any previous Trek).
And my absolute favourite reaction - when a guy wrote under a youtube video that he doesn’t want to pay for CBS All Access to be able to watch it, some crazy bitch started to accuse him that he’s a Donald Trump supporter who hates women and racist, because his “real reason” is not money but the fact that the lead is a black woman.
