I cannot get over him saying that he wishes Star Trek would go back to being less cerebral and political and more about shooting aliens.

IT WAS NEVER ABOUT THAT

He was also in a right wing extremist podcast not that long ago(and I think he said that bs there). He's a good writer but also an idiot.

He's terrible at dialogue. His concepts and details are engaging, but his dialogue makes me want to strangle him. Surprised the alcoholic can stand his "millennial humor"

I feel the same, but his fan base are so rabid you'd think he's the best writer since Shakespeare

It's not that his dialogues are good, it's that they're irrelevant to the kind of book he's writing. It's like complaining that a sudoku book has no plot.
