Hi! After reading opinions for a long time, I've realized that some episodes are quite controversial nowadays. For example, Star Trek: Voyager Season 4, Episode 17, "Retrospect," has been compared to the #MeToo movement, with some people criticizing how it "handles rape culture unevenly" (as one IMDb review puts it).

This got me thinking: What other things do you feel Star Trek make wrong?

Neither humanity nor the Federation are run by a military government.

While I agree with you that it's almost certainly not the intent, we unfortunately have seen that a shocking number of uniformed Starfleet officers sit on the Federation Council.

The Federation Council as seen in Star Trek IV, featuring no less than thirteen Starfleet officers.

    That was a review board for disciplinary action within Starfleet. The federation council members were there because it was an intragalactic incident.
