Hi! After reading opinions for a long time, I've realized that some episodes are quite controversial nowadays. For example, Star Trek: Voyager Season 4, Episode 17, "Retrospect," has been compared to the #MeToo movement, with some people criticizing how it "handles rape culture unevenly" (as one IMDb review puts it).

This got me thinking: What other things do you feel Star Trek make wrong?

You mean his clone? He didn't kill it, right?

    In "Up the Long Ladder" some clones were made of him. He vaporized them.

    They shouldn't have been made without his permission like that, but I also think there was definitely something skeevy about him killing them. There was a significant unaddressed issue here, and so I'd count this as "handling it poorly."

    Not Thomas Riker - the clone from "Up The Long Ladder."
