Can we say definitively that Alex Kurtzman and Secret Hideout aren't being shown the door anytime soon?

Eh?
Seems a stretch.

It wouldn't matter to the segment of the fanbase who think Alex kurtzman is only still involved with trek because he is torturing all the paramount execs and their families in a black site somewhere

No. But do we need to?

No. But do we need to?

Given that a certain section of the fandom is demanding it, I think we do.

I don't see the word "Trek" anywhere in that article....

Or you could just let those people worry about it.

"Certain sections of fandom" don't run the property. When studios let that happen, you get the reactionary nature of Star Wars.

Let the studios do what they do. If you don't like what's being made, maybe watch something else. Just because something has "Star Trek" emblazoned on it shouldn't compel anyone to have to watch it. I'll try it and if it doesn't appeal to me, I'll stop watching it. Lots of other things to try.

Eventually, there will be a Star Trek that appeals to you. If not, that's the way it goes, we all can't like everything. All of the creative minds who originated Star Trek are gone. Every new show will reflect a different take on it. Our preferred version is usually the one that introduced us to the franchise (it was just a "series" when I found it). Some people like "galaxy disaster" arcs, some like episodic high concept, others like animated comedies, apparently just about everyone loves shows with call backs and easter eggs, but I personally find that lazy. But, again, I just choose not to watch. These shows don't exist in my world.

Genre franchises spawn a tremendous level of passion that is both fun and dangerous. People are way emotionally involved over TV shows. I get it, I was like that at one time (mostly because they were shelter from a shitty adolescence), but it dissolved more and more with each sequel to the original. But man, you don't see this with the Law and Order franchise. "God, someone oust Dick Wolf already!"

Trek's future is intertwined with Paramount's (especially given the forthcoming merger with Skydance).
