Message: <blockquote data-quote="Staffan" data-source="post: 9566455" data-attributes="member: 907">Disco season 1 was pretty interesting in this way, because they presented Lorca as someone willing to bend more than a few rules to get what he needed. Him taking an interest in Burnham made perfect sense, as she was in a vulnerable position due to only being on temporary release from prison and in his care – that's an excellent position from which to manipulate someone. However, it turns out that Lorca's actually Mirror!Lorca, which explains his disregard for Starfleet ethics. And as I recall, once they return from the Mirror Universe without him, the rest of the crew starts solving problems using communication and understanding rather than phaser cannons, and reaffirm their commitment to Starfleet principles.The issue with season 2 is that they made Section 31 too official. I mean sure, Starfleet needs their spooks. That's Starfleet Intelligence, which we've seen before. Section 31 is something different, and should stay in the shadows and mostly be a bad guy.</blockquote>
