Star Trek was to clean...
Star Trek was a perfect secularist, socialist, pacifist utopia. Aside from Deep Space Nine, which had a heavy B5 influence, what dreck.
The joke for me was the Battle of Wolf 5 where the Borg cube slaughtered Starfleet. We are told later that in 6 months Starfleet will be rebuilt. What bull ! With the slaughter of trained cadre Starfleet will not be rebuilt for a generation. The Japanese Naval Air arm never recovered from Midway. You can't replace thousands of experienced, trained veterans in 6 months.
