Star Trek makes Stacey Abrams president of United Earth – and stokes conservative anger

The Georgia gubernatorial candidate and voting rights campaigner Stacey Abrams has been made president – of United Earth.

The honour, which a leading conservative website said Abrams did not deserve, was bestowed by the Paramount+ TV series Star Trek: Discovery, in its season four finale.

Abrams is a self-confessed Star Trek superfan. In 2019, she told the New York Times she binged on episodes during her last run for governor.

Abrams’s work helped secure both Biden’s win in Georgia in 2020 and Democratic control of the US Senate, via two Georgia run-offs.

Such work has made her a target of the right. On Friday, the National Review, a conservative site, published a column about her Star Trek cameo: Stacey Abrams Does Not Deserve to Be President of Earth.

The conservative outrage over the cameo brings to mind two questions:

1. They *are* aware that Star Trek, like their wet dream of fraud in the 2020 election, is fiction, right?

2. Why do they even watch Star Trek?  Its universe and ideals is the antithesis of what they want for themselves and for everyone else.  

They want a society, a universe, like the one in A Clockwork Orange.
