Hollywood's relentless push of leftist propaganda has reached such nauseating heights that it's creating the most unlikely alliances. The newest Star Trek series on Paramount+ is apparently so terrible that it got William Shatner - the original Captain Kirk himself - agreeing with White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller about the complete destruction of a once-beloved franchise.

Miller, who serves as President Trump's Homeland Security adviser, didn't mince words when responding to a clip from the new "Star Trek: Starfleet Academy" series. The show appears to be yet another victim of Hollywood's obsession with cramming woke ideology down Americans' throats instead of telling compelling stories.

This isn't just about bad television, folks. This is about the systematic destruction of American cultural institutions by leftist activists masquerading as entertainment executives. Star Trek, which once inspired generations of Americans to reach for the stars and embrace exploration, has been perverted into another vehicle for progressive messaging.

Cultural Vandalism in Action

When you've lost William Shatner - a Hollywood veteran who's navigated the industry for decades - you know you've gone too far off the deep end. The fact that he's finding common ground with Stephen Miller speaks volumes about just how awful this latest iteration has become.

This is exactly the kind of cultural vandalism that drove millions of Americans to vote for President Trump. People are sick and tired of having every piece of entertainment turned into a lecture about leftist politics. They want to be entertained, not indoctrinated.

The entertainment industry's woke takeover has reached such extremes that even longtime Hollywood figures can't stomach what they're producing.

While the mainstream media focuses on palace intrigue in Washington, real Americans are watching their beloved franchises get butchered by activists who care more about pushing "The Message" than creating quality content.

How much more cultural destruction will patriots tolerate before Hollywood finally gets the message that Americans reject their woke propaganda?

THANK YOU for covering this! The mainstream media won't touch stories like this because it exposes their bias.

This is what happens when Hollywood values virtue signaling over good storytelling. They've completely abandoned what made Star Trek great in the first place.

Finally! When you've lost William Shatner, you know you've gone too far off the rails. The original Star Trek was about unity and exploration, not dividing people with political messaging.

Exactly! Gene Roddenberry's vision was hopeful and unifying, not this divisive garbage they're pushing now.

Can someone explain to me how we went from Kirk's colorblind crew working together to whatever this woke nonsense is supposed to be?

I stopped watching after the first season of Discovery. My kids asked why we don't watch Star Trek anymore and I had to explain how they ruined something that used to bring families together.

Same here. We just stick to TOS and TNG reruns now. At least those episodes had actual substance and moral lessons.

It's sad when you can't share something you loved as a kid because they've made it so political.

Shatner has been based lately on social media. Good for him for not backing down to the woke mob trying to destroy his own legacy.

Stephen Miller is absolutely right to call this out. When will conservatives finally stand up to Hollywood's relentless propaganda machine?
