Star Trek

I have in fact never seen Star Trek, nor do I know much about in general. I found this article very interesting because I never knew the connections to the cold war and other political events. I never really was interested in it, but I've seen most of the Star Wars movies and enjoyed them. I think it would be a different place if writers could not write about the negative things in life like war, that way everything would be positive and propaganda would  not necessarily exist.
