I remember the original Star Trek also dealt with Fascism. There was an episode where a friend of Kirk went down to a planet and tried to use the so called “good aspects of the Third Reich” to a primitive planet only to find that it went the same ways as Hitler’s Germany.

Yes, one of the many times when they conveniently ignored the prime directive, making her comment about that aspect also humorous in her ignorance.

The Prime Directive was a slap at those who believed that you couldn’t interfere, that you should live an isolationist life.

The guy was a former teacher of Kirk’s, a university professor who tried to implement Naziism... sounds awfully familiar, don’t it ? The educated elites can make leftism work if only THEY are in charge...
