MODERATORS
The US centricity is actually an interesting topic in-universe. Especially because the federation should try and work hard to make member worlds feel equal. Having so much Americentrism would alienate the aliens. The federation has done a bad job of this 😆
Of course the real answer is that the people that make it are American and it's probably largely for American audiences and therefore producers and writers feel like they need to show people things they are comfortable with. And when they do show other cultures they are seen through an American lens. Which is why the Irish were so cliche that O'Brien even teleported the straw around their feet when they beamed into Picard's enterprise. 👨🌾
Which Lemmy am I in? Which way to the daystrom institute?
c/DaystromInstitute is next door on the same StarTrek.website instance.
Some of this meta discussion about American exceptionalism might also fit in the c/Quark’s community - if you want to broaden to the point that the discussion is likely to run less than 50% Trek.
