YouTube video by Rik Carranza The Hidden Power of Star Trek: A personal journey beyond the Final Frontier

Star Trek hit different when I needed it most. Made a vid on how it went from “cool sci-fi” to a life defining.

It’s (I think) funny, honest, and a little emotional.

YouTube video by Rik Carranza Jar Jar Binks Was a GOOD Character… Hear Me Out E01

I’ve started a new series on YouTube called Hear Me Out where I defend the indefensible. I take on the most controversial opinions in pop culture and attempt to defend them.

First up, Jar Jar Binks is a well written character.

YouTube video by Rik Carranza To those who think Star Trek has gone Woke

More people like the video than dislike it so that give me hope but, man, some of the takes are wild…

If you want to check it out yourself here it is:

I remember watching a video saying it was unfair to label people on the right as media illiterate but there a lot of comments on this video that completely miss my point, wilfully ignore things I say, and just focus on the buzz words they want to hear so they can make their point.

This is one of the comments on my video about Star Trek always being woke. Blows my mind that this person thinks there are two sides of an argument for things like racism, and that Star Trek has done anything less than paint any sort of prejudice as wrong.

So many unhinged ones like this…

Thank @petraphoenix.bsky.social! I know and if anything else, knowing I have ADHD helps make me laugh at the situation!!

There’s nothing quite like being a parent with ADHD, which makes you so much more sensitive to criticism, and having a toddler who thinks it’s really funny to say ‘daddy you’re wrong’ and laugh when you make a mistake

Is it just me or do those on the right have majorl ‘peaked in high school’ energy

At this point I’d welcome it

In my opinion the best Star Wars content concentrates on the struggles of ordinary people and the Jedi are a more mythical presence.
