antisemitic trekkies have a staggering amount of gall
#im talking about the fact that spock and data are the two most popular characters in all of star trek#every ''fave trek character'' poll we all know where its going#antisemetic trekkies don't DESERVE leonard and brent's jewish splendour upon their screens#also leonard added a lot of jewish-ness into spock and vulcan culture in general it's INTRINISTIC it's a TAPESTRY#and im barely scraping the surface too#theres also bajorans being an obvious stand in for jewish people#theres the three most prominent ferengi characters being played by jewish actors and the Certain Flavour this adds#there are the acting choices made for dr. soong. and the acting/last name choices for dr. zimmerman#theres the overarching theme of overcoming past suffering and living on endless hope#and like. lots of other details#on a metatextual level removing judaism from star trek is like removing flour from a cake after its cooked#you can't do it bitch#i'm not jewish i just have a great deal of respect for the faith and the culture#(plus i've always been a little media sponge so many a jewish actor or writer and so on)
