It looks like the "Political Correctness" / "Equality" morons have now
forced a change to the wording used in the upcoming series "Star Trek:
Strange New Worlds".

The orginal show uses the phrase:
"To boldly go where no man has gone before".

From this video of the excited cast
<https://twitter.com/StarTrekOnPPlus/status/1370435517485969411>
it appears that wording has been changed in the new show to be:
"To boldly go where no one has gone before."

"Man" is yet another word added to the 'naughty list' of banned words. :-\

Err... The very first episode of TNG opened with Picard yapping “To boldly
go where no-one has gone before”. You didn’t notice? I did. More than 30
years ago. It’s a bit late to be complaining...

Indeed. Anybody who has been surprised by Star Trek being politically
correct since the beginning of ST:TNG has been in a coma. Trek was
woke before it was called woke. A *lot* before. By intent.

Anyone complaining about “To boldly go where no-one has gone before” in
2021 like it's something new can't be an actual Star Trek fan and is
just complaining about something for the sake of it.

Was that not the phrase used in ST:TNG? It certainly wasn't a recent

So it did. It's been a long time since I've seen any TNG episodes, so
I'd forgotten about that.
