“Star Trek was an attempt to say that humanity will reach maturity and wisdom on the day that it begins not just to tolerate, but take a special delight in differences in ideas and differences in life forms. […] If we cannot learn to actually enjoy those small differences, to take a positive delight in those small differences between our own kind, here on this planet, then we do not deserve to go out into space and meet the diversity that is almost certainly out there.” ― Gene Roddenberry

    Ngl, 30% of Trek is problematic if not downright unwatchable. Doesn’t stop it from being some of the best TV with some of the most thoughtful characters you’ll ever see. Star Trek is a study in contradiction.
