Your brush is a bit overbroad. The hacks currently dismantling the integrity and principles of the Federation are only running some of the current era Trek shows. Lower Decks is the best showcase of Federation values there's ever been.
First of all, death to the traitor Kurtzman of course. But just like the hated Rick Berman before him, I don't think he can really ruin Trek as a whole.
Yes that's the guy. He also created gold pressed latinum because he refused to believe or understand the concept of a post-scarcity post-capitalism economy. Which is why I especially appreciated Boimler extremely obviously not giving a shit about latinum during the Cerritos' visit to DS9.
I love how Freeman is absolutely her daughter's mother, with her own occasional snarky comments about Starfleet and Federation leadership, and an instinct for morality over legality. I can't remember the exact episode but there was a great scene in a turbolift with her and Ransom where she's grumbling about "Starfleet's policy of some interference" when it hamstrings her from ethical actions.
I also love how Freeman's job as captain of a California-class ship is hinted at over the seasons as being a result of Freeman's own rebellious streak, and not any sort of incompetence. When push comes to shove Freeman is a damn good captain. The apple didn't fall far from the tree.

That jab was too subtle for me, it slipped right by. Do you remember which episode it was?
