i fucking hate people who act arrogantly enlightened because they came to understood one other way of life besides their own. they looked outside of what they knew and learned there were other ways to live and they felt like their eyes are SO OPEN. SO WOKE.
like, jesus christ, you must have really lived in a smug little cocoon of self importance if the fact that there are other humans besides yourself and they're different from you is such a world-shaking revelation
the traitor eddington in st:ds9 is a sublime example of this. he's exactly what the "fedoracore whiteboy with waaaaay more self esteem than he deserves" archetype would be like born in space: reads one obscure book, stepped outside his unimaginably privileged existence to grow some damn tomatoes, and he thinks he's the wokest man in the galaxy
