Gawd you all are taking such a great TV series that had good thoughts on social and philosophical issues plus cool action and diminishing it to a liberal vs conservative thing.

I will now guess that conservatives will no longer watch ST because many of the characters are liberals. Becasue you know, anytime Hollywood does anything liberal they say they will boycott.
Maybe if they get enough signatures on a petition, they can get it pulled off the air for indoctrinating liberal ideas.
And I love the series , all of the series. However touching on the human condition and social issues is not always a liberal thing. Liberal or conservative neither one is always right or wrong.
Kirk was definitely a conservative. You don't become the captain of a star ship if you make emotional decisions. Everyting was "black and white" until he was provided more information.
Conservative would be spock. He made logic based decisions, whereas liberals make emotion based decisions.
liberal: I have no idea.. I fyou t hink about it, the entire star trek universe is a socialist utopia. They don't even use money..
The world of Star Trek was one where technology had abolished space, time and scarcity. The transporter could send its crew anywhere within a few thousand miles, The great ships used physics and techniques to tap the vast energies needed to warp space and time and produce matter from the vacuum
A variant of the transporter called a replicator was a Turing machine that produced all the material needs of the crew. The star ships had weapons to devastae whole cities and planets. Medicine was similarly advanced. In the world of Star Trek the market was pointless and the could organize things on the basis of each according to his talents to each according to his needs. Does that last observation ring a bell? iT SHOULD. It is the dream world anticipated by a political economist in the halls of the great Library in London England circa 1850. The labels of conservative and liberal are as meaningless as the concept of capital and wealth in a true COMMUNISTworld like that of Gene Roddenberry's Star Trek.
Just think one always thought James Tiberias Kirk was a good American farm boy from 22nd century Iowa and not some Red.
One always knew Jean Luc Piccard was a European so being a communist was no big strech.
