The crew of the Enterprise were multi racial and integrated at a time the US was denying black folks the right to live where they wanted. Kirk would have been appalled at the state of the US.You mean like Robin Hood, Star Trek and the Three Musketeers ?You are asking how someone from a different political system and culture can still be sympathetic ?Stop being silly.
Thats how I read it.
Its not worthy of thought let alone an answer.
Not just "different" but completely opposed.
And if you don't want to answer it, then stop hitting the reply button, moron.
Or War and Peace ? Or Dances With Wolves ?
Mmm, ok. you had your chance.
Star Trek.
The main character from Star Trek, ie Captain Kirk, was not antithetical to the American political system.
Nice moving of the goal post there from the main character to the whole cast, but I will answer anyway.
At the time of the TV show, desegregation was already not only the Law of the Land, but the national consensus.
Some racists might have been offended at a multi racial crew, but they were already in the minority of the nation as a whole.
