ST Picard tells more about modern times than about what is Star Trek. When we watched the OS, TNG, DS9 and Voyager and even in Discovery (which was in itself an annoying/silly part of the Star Trek franchise) is was about ethical conflicts, discovery, morals and wonders, human progress. In general it was all optimistic, the best of mankind, we had a bright future. SF usually extrapolates current times into the future and it is not a pretty sight this time. A morally collapsed government, conspiracies and secret plots, lone wolfs against the government, rich people pulling strings etc, etc. A single man's fight against evil, it is all pretty standard in storyline and action. It has become more a episode of Mission Impossible than Star Trek. It is sad to see that even Star Trek is now gone down with the times. On the good part: it acting and visuals are pretty good, and it is also good to see 7 of 9 in something else than the demeaning catsuit from Voyager.
