Star Trek: Strange New Worlds' just made Voyager's darkest moment even worse

The article discusses how the recent "Star Trek: Strange New Worlds" series has addressed the controversial "Tuvix" episode from "Star Trek: Voyager." In the "Tuvix" episode, a transporter malfunction resulted in the fusion of two crew members, Tuvok and Neelix, creating a new individual, Tuvix. The episode raised ethical questions about the right to bodily autonomy and the decision to forcibly separate Tuvix back into Tuvok and Neelix. The article suggests that "Strange New Worlds" has now shown how the "Tuvix" situation could have been handled more sensitively, highlighting the importance of respecting an individual's bodily autonomy and the need for a more thoughtful, nuanced approach to such ethical dilemmas. The article argues that the "Tuvix" episode was one of Voyager's "darkest moments" and that "Strange New Worlds" has now made it even worse by demonstrating a more ethical way of addressing such complex issues.
