? I'm not sure how "privilege" comes into my comment one tiny bit. I can see how it comes into why you don't like the newer Treks, but not how it takes away the Trek that was before.
If what you mean is "The new Trek doesn't serve the purpose for me that it did before", that was not the meaning that I got out of "they took it away from me", because virtually everyone I've heard make similar comments meant "Now that they've done this, the old stuff sucks for me too".
My comment was purely about "if you like stuff, then like it. Don't let other people's add-ons ruin your enjoyment of what you liked".
(If by "took it away" you did mean "they stopped making it in a way that fits my needs/preferences", then yes, I agree they did. )
No, I meant that I went to the theater expecting to watch something and got a deeply inferior product, which did kind of spoil my afternoon. I wanted to like it, but I really, really didn't. I do not mean that the old stuff sucks for me, but that it has become apparent that Paramount has no interest in creating anything of that quality again, so the *hope* that something like it will be produced has dimmed.
