They have an ep where kirk gives muskets to a group called the Yangs to fight a group backed by the klingons called the coms with red flags. Also the klingons were soviets, romulans ccp, federation was the us.
Star Trek has:
- A world order
- No money, nobody owns anything
- They eat the
bugs light
- Spock is literally an “I FUCKING LOVE SCIENCE” bugman
- TOS had men wearing skirts in the first episodes, it also had that faggot Takei
- TNG had some episodes that basically touched on transgenderism and homosexuality, though nothing like today’s madness
- Both series had little moments, like occasionally showing a woman or a minority in a position of power just to show how much equality had progressed
- There were episodes where terraforming is a metaphor for global warming
I’m joking that Star Trek is literally globohomo but it was very progressive for its time. Though it came from a more genuine, optimistic view of the future, not to sell you to a pod.
Even the most staunch liberals today are not optimistic about the future because they know deep down that their ideology just keeps making things worse.
