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.

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

Where are you if I may ask? And I think it may have been a dictate of Gene Roddenberry to not name which economic system won out, which is kind of a copout. But yeah it's refreshing to see it called what it is finally

And it just seems accurate, at least with definitions of socialism I've read and studied

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"

I like SNW, so I hope its not cancelled.

I need to finally actually watch this show. I might as well use it as an excuse to get Netflix

I'm just hoping that this doesnt mean SNW will be cancelled like some of the other shows

No. I didnt enjoy Discovery yet I've enjoyed SNW. You dont need to know much on Discovery to get into SNW anyway.

Just curious as I want to rewatch some overlooked episodes from each of the series out so far.
