        Good lookin out! Voyager is one of the few Trek shows I haven’t seen every episode of, I mean I’ve seen most of Voyager, so I might’ve seen that one. It just makes sense, Starfleet is the embodiment of leftist socialist idealism, I do love it so

          What are you on about? Starfleet is a (at least quasi)military organization with a obvious hierarchical order. The captain tells you to jump? You say how high. There’s a lot of discussions, but in the end she/he decides the fate of all aboard.

          Now, I love old Trek (up until and including Voyager) - it has a lot of merits - but it’s far from how I’d want society to be optimally.

            moth can’t think of any examples of socialist nations with a rigid military hierarchy in the entire human history. no, none at all. can you?

              moth tries to troll. Or moth has very different understanding of “leftist socialist idealism”. But what do I know, very little.

              RATM at least described themselves as anarchist/socialist if I remember correctly.
