Everything that’s happening in America today, Star Trek was there first. I mean the real Star Trek with Captain James T. Kirk, not the endless woke spinoffs and ripoffs still leeching off the original brilliant construct to oppose the very point of it. A planetary pandemic that kills adults while leaving children unafflicted? See Miri (episode 11). Deific technology that brutally cancels both free speech and speakers? See The Apple (episode 34). A mentally incompetent leader kept hidden from the public except for controlled glimpses so that radical extremists can rule through him? See Patterns of Force (episode 50). Racists who view skin color as the content of character and demand atonement for long ago crimes? See Let That Be Your Last Battlefield (episode 70). Women who seize command from abler men by physically imitating them? See Turnabout Intruder (episode 79). The Deep State trying to stop a visionary figure from ending an obsolete yet profitable war? See Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country (1991). Captain Kirk met these challenges and many more, much as President Donald Trump is now doing. And if Trump can be compared to Kirk, and boldly go where no president has gone before, then Joe Biden is John Gill from Patterns of Force.

Appreciate your posting this.
Just FYI... Joe Biden has beens John Gill from Patterns of Force for the last three and a half years...
“The Return of the Archons” featuring the AI Landru is a perfect description of the Democrats and the wackadoodle mass media we have today.
Yes. I am surprised that anyone noticed that Biden has been drugged into this condition.
Most seem to think that his impairment is natural and that drugs reverse it.
The change in him before and after the start of his “campaign” is striking, however.
There had to be some kind of “control” of the sitting “President”, installed by continued cheating.
Grups...
I think Roddenberry intended for the villagers in the Landru to represent Christians. At least that has always been my gut feeling when seeing that episode.
Exactly
Joe Biden is bringing Patterns of Force into reality.
A lot of us have been saying that for some time now.
I never got that impression.
In fact, I thought of the immune people, meeting secretly and in hiding as Christian. Like early Christians persecuted by Rome.
You are ‘Not of the Body’
Except John Gill had good intentions.
Yep. And the villagers looked like programmed idiots.
Back in my Trek convention days (gah, so long ago!!), I walked out on a talk Roddenberry was giving because he made fun of God. He made some remark as I walked out, but I don’t recall what it was.
Anybody that complains about Trek becoming woke in the first sentence is a moron. Trek has been deliberately the most woke thing on television since day 1. It didn’t “go woke” it DEFINES woke.
Well ok, but you have to admit the character of John Gill is the modern Joe Biden, except that John Gill, had some redeeming qualities, before hand, Joe Biden does not.
No. Frankly the “my opponents are Nazis” thing is so tired and stupid. The left has used it on the right for decades, and using it back is just lazy and pathetic.
The Star Trek series was pretty good for presenting social issues and at the same time being fun.
I believe that we are all, Republican, Democrat, Liberal, Conservative, Independent, like in the Day of the Dove episode.
Folks we are being played for fools. If the powers that be can keep us hating each other, they can gain and keep power and distract us from the fact that they are really stealing from us.

Well ok if Star Trek, is so woke, what about the episode, where the TOS gang, beams down to a planet where the Roman Empire has lasted for 2000 years, and those who follow the "sun" are persecuted, until Uhura, at the end states they were following the "son" of God.
Things evolve. That’s the nature of things. The fact of the matter is when Roddenberry cast Majel Barrett to be 2nd in command Trek quite deliberately became the most woke thing on TV. And the network’s list of objections specifically included putting a woman 2nd in command. So Gene made the second pilot, for that he “demoted” the woman to 3rd in command... but made her black. The very EXISTENCE of Uhura was to make Trek woke. Having her correct people to the the son of God (which obviously was pretty obvious, they were Romans after all) doesn’t change anything.
Trump is Kirk.
