For some strange reason this ol' Trekker was reminded of some memorable quotes from the original Star Trek series:
"Oh, how absolutely typical of your species! You don't understand something, so you become fearful."
Perhaps someday we can claim the following quote:
"Where I come from, size, shape, or colour makes no difference."
For:
"All men are brothers."

Here's a bonus. While leafing through Star Trek Speaks (a book from my geeky youth) I came across this quote, a conversation; it reminded me of a certain President Donald J. Trump:
"Evil does seek to maintain power by suppressing the truth."

Disturbing to see comments on the as-yet-unaired new Trek TV show that mock it for being 'too diverse'. The original series was groundbreaking in that regard.
It was groundbreaking in many ways, but you are right.
Apparently the new show is having terrible problems; the series premiere keeps getting pushed back. They can push it off the Scarborough Bluffs for all I care.
Re: last quote and Trump -- how true and how scary!
That television series covered a lot of bases.
