Although the rest of you people here give me some hope on that. We have several examples to look at from history as to why that type of government and system simple doesn't work and never will, Russia, China, North Korea, Vietnam, Cuba and now Venezuela.<br /><br />Star Trek's Utopian world is nothing more than a Communism/Socialist fantasy. It's for people who understand next to nothing about actual history, economics, real science or even what freedom stands for...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5195323.post-78479292633770630602015-09-02T00:29:21.097-07:002015-09-02T00:29:21.097-07:00This is a great article about Star Trek.

Wouldn't you be happy to live in an utopian world like the one in the Star Trek universe? I would certainly do.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00058523572211165233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5195323.post-31899454199235923092012-03-28T23:26:44.764-07:002012-03-28T23:26:44.764-07:00This information is very nice.

Trek is a very socialis...Yes, you are quite right. Trek is a very socialistic fantasy as desired by a rather unsophisticated man. Fans often confuse their love of (our) childhood heroes with infatuation with GR's un-realistic and undesirable ideology. Trek did have that most beautiful of spaceships and the cool weapons. Here, I'm speaking of the first series, the only one I watched, because I got wise to it as I grew up, just like you did.<br /><br />But Trek is what you see in it, to some extent. When I was 11 it started on NBC. 1967; Vietnam was going on. My chums and I used to fantasize about the Enterprise burning commie Viet Nam and China and Russia off the face of the map. AND we weren't kidding, either. If only the modern, new-age fans could know what so many of us at the time were thinking! We (here in Texas) were utterly disgusted when Kirk kissed Uhuru, a negress! Yuck!! In fact, since most of us only had black and white TVs, we really wondered if she was some kind of white woman. But in the story, they WERE forced to kiss each other. And later we learned that Roddenberry took advantage of this actress sexually, which none of us thought was right. We liked Lt. Uhuru! We just didn't want to go around kissing her. Guess it's a Southern thing. Maybe that's respect on a level that some folks don't quite understand, and would hate us for, without thinking about it.<br /><br />We all went to church, and imagined that the crew of Enterprise were Christians, too. Why wouldn't they be? After all, in Roddenberry's The Making of Star Trek, it clearly says that the 12 starships were built via the San Francisco Navy yard, hence, American. The small fleet of starships just had an International crew. Mostly white people, but it did include others who were qualified. But other countiries seemed to have ships too. Communist Russian had been defeated apparently, and one ship was Russian and called the Potemkin. We imagined that other leading industrialized nations had contributed one to the fleet. And the allied Vulcans had one too.<br /><br />We liked that interpretation of Trek back in 1967-69 much better than GR's hidden agenda version. To heck with the guy, then. He started an interesting TV show with beautiful sets and props, but we should just ignore all the other rubbish as you have well illustrated. On the real starships there WILL be chaplains . . . because no matter how far in the future you really go, WE will still be REAL PEOPLE. And thank God.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5195323.post-41886419656790964682006-10-22T11:18:00.000-07:002006-10-22T11:18:00.000-07:00You have said exactly how I felt about the Star Tr...You have said exactly how I felt about the Star Trek franchise.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5195323.post-67705475802287888372006-10-18T08:04:00.000-07:002006-10-18T08:04:00.000-07:00Wow, I dont think I have ever thought about Star T...Wow, I dont think I have ever thought about Star Trek in that way before, but your right.
