Mirror Lorca might straight-up be the best villain in all of Trek And that reveal? Chills, every time.

Regarding Pike, keep in mind in the original pilot, he says he 'can't get used to women on the bridge'. I would guess that's no longer canon though...
Better than actual TOS where they end the series with an episode about how women flat out can't be Captains because they're too emotional.
They should still feel shameI noticed that a couple of you accidentally voted for Picard. Misclicks happen, so I'm just letting you know!
Is the sisko war crime about assassinating the romulan politician?
It's Burnham. Technically not the captain until recently but it doesn't matter as she always acts like one. She is directly responsible for starting a war with the Klingons that nearly destroyed the Federation.
Picard saved past Earth and thus also the existence of the Federation in First Contact. More importantly, he was the most moral of the bunch, in the TNG era at least.Hear me out tho.
Janeway got her crew home and pretty much obliterated the borg.
Sisko won the dominion war and is more or less a god.
Kirk saved the Khitomer accords, the most important agreement in federation history.
Archer the reason the federation exists more or less.
Picard... got kidnapped by the cardassians and borg? I guess? Good whistle player, maybe? Tea aficionado? Q's best friend?
See what I'm getting at here.

What's weird is that Saru wasn't just the first alien Captain on the show's main ship, he's one of the first alien Starfleet captains we've ever seen. There have been a few Vulcan captains, but across all the shows there's pretty much nothing else. Lower Decks has given us one Tellarite captain, and DS9 mentioned, but never showed Captain Boday, a Gallamite.
That's exactly what it's become.This poll looks more like a ranking of people least favorite trek's....
1) You can't judge her for anything she did before becoming captain, just like you can't judge Sisko on seasons 1-3.
2) She wasn't responsible for starting that war at all, people just thought that because they didn't have access to the Klingon POV like the audience did. The Klingons were explicitly luring the Federation into a conflict to start a war.
Mirror Lorca being evil gives him my vote.
And yeah, as a Captain Burnham hasn't done anything bad yet.
Burnham incapacitates her captain and then strolls onto the Bridge saying "hey everyone I'm the Acting Captain now fire on the Klingons"
She is absolutely Captain for the purposes of the command structure until Georgiou regains consciousness and puts down her mutiny
Burnham started an interstellar war with the Klingons, but she wasn't a captain yet so she gets a pass.
Archer is by far the worst.
Meh, her mutiny puts her in the running for worst starfleet officer but it doesn't make her a captain. Discovery's pilot is still my least favorite thing about the show but it's clearly intended to show her at her lowest so that her arc for the season can be becoming a more responsible and less reactionary officer (which season 2 almost immediately goes back on and she takes another 2 seasons learning how to be captain material).
It's not true though? From what we see from the Klingon point of view they always intended to start a war and it would've happened whether Burnham was there or not.
Also, the amount of people voting for Burnham are really telling on themselves in a big way
Picard saved the entire galaxy from an anti-time anomaly that would have prevented life from even occurring in our galaxy.Hear me out tho.

If we judged all the other captains based on the dumb shit they did before they became captain thent his discussion would be completely different.This board's trekkies are legit problematic and always wanting the show to be cancelled, they don't call her a Black Mary Sue because they don't wanna make their deal too blatant.
