Our life a movie, Uncut Gems
Wonderfully said. I get confused by ppl who complain Star Trek isn’t a utopia or perfect. It’s aspirational and expands our view of what we could achieve with cooperation.

While DS9 actively showed flaws to make Starfleet and the Federation seem real instead of an impossibly idealized vision, TNG shows cracks on a rewatch. Like your great point about conceited enlightenment, the flaws humanize the Federation’s detractors, the Ferengi, Klingons, and Romulans weren’t wrong. Weren't there a few episodes where they discussed losing their principles if their material conditions deteriorated?
Reminds me of Zizek’s point that happiness doesn’t come from government and society and that happiness isn’t the goal. We just don’t wanna live in a chaotic system that wastes lives and resources.
