Star Trek VI is the best one, IMO. It has:

  • Historical allegories
  • Political intrigue
  • Mystery
  • Anti-racist themes
  • Spaceship battles
  • Awkward Chekhov

The revised Trill makeup in DS9 made that show literally unwatchable!

EDIT: In earnest, I do find the hoop-jumping process of trying to find some canon explanations/connections a lot of fun, as long as nobody takes them too seriously (hard mode).

The function of accounts like the one you are replying to is to encourage cynicism and inaction among otherwise anti-fascist people.

Failing that, they will try to exhaust you with “debate”.
