I was watching
STAR TREK earlier & it finally hit me what the ideological differences & the visions of the future seem to be between Democrats & Republicans. We are the
FEDERATION & Republicans are the
Klingon Empire. Where we want to unite people and the countries of the world to fight the evils of life, the Republicans believe that by
"beating the shit" out of something, you can solve anything.
I've always believed that the best representation of Liberal ideology is "STAR TREK". The United Federation Of Planets is a society committed to peaceful coexistence & the exploration of science, with no religion or capatalism. The Federation preaches that humanity can get better, if we set our differences aside & work together.
The Klingons exhibit classic Republican traits. They speak of "honor", while exhibiting actions that are dishonorable and corrupt. They believe that through violence & aggression, you can solve problems. "Peace through strength" to borrow a phrase.
...All of life's mysteries can be explained through TREK.
