.... Yeah, now I'm glad I'm not watching this anymore.
They could have gone any other way and have it make sense in a "darker and grittier" kind of way.
Like a Romulan faction bent on keeping the Federation as enemies no matter what, so they're the ones responsible for what happened to Mars. It's believable within cannon - there are some Romulans that would saw off their own leg to get one over the Federation.
But nope! We gotta make the humans Federation all edgy fuckwads because apparently that's human nature. Never mind that they've been living in a post-scarcity paradise for the last 200 years where disease and poverty have been completely eliminated.
EDIT:
Oh, and to the writers and producers at CBS?
