I liked Archer, I'd rank him up there with Kirk and Picard. Then again I havent seen the series in a long time, just bought the Blu Rays of it so I guess Ill rewatch it soon and see if I still think this

Well I'm a democratic socialist and def not a communist, so I guess there's the distinction.

Sorry for lack of updates, a lot has come up in life. I am going to make a post later today about the first season of "new" Doctor Who that I did indeed finally watch. TLDR: I liked it a lot but I'll go more into detail later today

Well I'm not for ending US hegemony so that doesn't sound appealing to me.

Yeah I doubt it personally, it doesn't seem to match anything ever reflected in Star Trek. But if you find it, do tell me!

I didn't like any of the new Star Wars movies, so probably not a good sign

I don't like the implication that full communism is only possible after a zombie apocalypse though lol

Well I'm not a Marxist Leninist or anything like that, and neither is Star Trek ever promoting anything like that

Yeah, I find it odd because its Hollywood doing these references which isn't exactly a left wing institution.

Ironically The Orville did that better by saying there are no prisons anymore in the Planetary Union.

Ah yeah socialism I guess is a less dirty word in those parts.

I thought socialism was social ownership, not welfare programs that exist under capitalism.

None of those quotes say private ownership of cars is gone. Cars aren't the means of production btw, so I don't even agree with SNW here.
In case you don't know, they explicitly use the term socialist to describe the Federation economy in SNW. I was wondering if ppl liked or hated it? I like it personally since it's not a dodge like "new world economy"
Just curious as I want to rewatch some overlooked episodes from each of the series out so far.
Should I watch all 20 years of the original run or just begin with the new one which I think is been around for 15 years? What are the best episodes? I've seen only a handful of the old and New ones but I liked what Ive seen, just hoping for a guide to really get into it
