The last film was pretty good in my opinion, the only one in the Kelvin timeline that I like. The Prime timeline is where everyone is focused on, and STD is in the Prime timeline (main timeline), but the problem is everyone is so caught up on aesthetics. If only they knew about the augment klingon virus in 2154. anyways, true fans wont hate on this new series, they would connect the dots and see the reasoning why they're filling up plot holes from the past.

Not sure what you're getting at here, me and most of the other Trekkies hating on this show are well aware of the Klingon Aument Virus. Enterprise already filled in that plot hole and explained why the Klingons in TOS lacked Cranial Ridges.

Augment Virus Klingons look like this:

 

No, those would die afterwards from incompatible DNA resulted in neural system breakdown.

What I'm getting at is that STD Klingons is most likely the alienated religious type and did not recieve the vaccine for the virus. They somehow became compatible and mutated. I do not know for sure but that is my best guess as to why they look this way.
