I meant more that the characters in Trek are super racist, it's just not as overt because it's against alien species instead of normal human races. Like it's a completely routine thing to distrust a character just because they're Romulan or assuming a Klingon is going to be violent. Oh yeah. Most of the time the prejudice is the conflict. The Romulans mirror bots of the USSR and Cold War and even ~~modern Russia in Picard~~ (though I think the Federation is the Communists and Romulans the Capitalists, at least until Picard). But McCoy is just completely racist in a way that totally shouldn't be acceptable in that era. --- "We live in a country Hasire.." ~ yosouf06 REVOLVER STAKE! http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v717/ChocoboMog123/AltEisenRChocoboMog.png <cite>ChocoboMogALT posted [p:938210107] in Orcs are t...
