I haven't seen PIC. They really have ICE in the Federation?
Time travel. They had ICE, pre-WW3.
Thanks.
Yes and even a Picard who lreaded a Fascist party... all very worrying...
They did a lazy season when they traveled back in time
Why bother with creative writing drawing more subtle parallels between fantasy and reality that might be more effective in changing hearts and minds, when you can just point at real things and go "bad thing is bad".
Anyone who already has a clue gets to go "hahaha bad thing bad they're so right" and people who don't just get bounced off the show so there's no chance to get them to think about things.
Well I guess they have a target audience, I'm just not in it, which is fine.
