Absolutely Woke (Season 1 Episode 1 - 5)
For those interested and utilizing this site, Star Trek: Strange New Worlds is indeed very, if not unnervingly woke. It had some elements I quite agreed with politically and personally but more so with those I did not. The DEI drive within the show is painfully blatant and though I did LOVE the characters; It was too much, dare I say, far too much.
The television show itself does accel in story-telling but it does suffer a bit to forcefully interjected 'woke' ideologies. Combatted by the fact they are a whopping 50+ minutes long, it takes away from the story-telling and immersion fairly significantly in some situations.
The visual effects are outstanding. Completely and utterly outstanding. The same goes for the audioFX.
Overall, I had to stop watching the show by episode six of the first season due to it's blatantly woke-leaning politically motivated nature. Though elements were introduced in episodes 1-5 pretty heavily, I try to keep an open mind enough to understand that everyone has an opinion. By episode five though, there were basically eluding to the fact that if you aren't 'like' them, you're either stupid, a bad person or a mixture of both.
I watch television to be entertained, not to be dismissed, looked down upon or flat told that "I'm" wrong. This is a very hard pass for me.

Over represented
While I was pleased that the mood conveyed the same sense of camaraderie
as the original series I was a little taken back by the over representation of females and minorities. Especially women.
I'm a woman that enjoys seeing women represented as powerful and multi faceted but where did they get the idea that women don't like to see men too. ?Especially white men.
The only white men in the entire reg ensemble cast are Pike and Spock . The bridge is entirely made up of females and a trans ..as most positions of power I see...It's wierd that they think that the only way to elevate one group is to devalue another.
How about devaluing no one.
