So...Republicans are fans of space communism?
Remember not so long ago when people noticed that Rise Against makes political songs? A lot of people are blind to stuff like this until you point it out.
Likewise with Rage Against The Machine
My absolute favorite bit of social media was this instagram exchange. It just encapsulates so much that's inherently stupid with it.

Mine was when, i don't remember, speaker of the house (r)?, said his favorite band was rage against the machine.
Like dude, those guys hate you.
As I recall the exchange, Paul Ryan said at one point that RATM was one of his favorite bands. Morello was asked about it in an interview, and said something to the effect of "He can like what he wants, but he's part of the machine we're raging against"
"What do you think is the machine they are raging against? The fucking printer?"
TBF, I do really hate my printer.
But what about… 35 pieces of flair?
Yeah, I’m rollin’ down Rodeo with some toner
These people ain’t seen a color print since their grandparents inkjet
Bold of you to assume they know it's space communism. If the boys is of any indication Star Trek needs to explicitly say "we're space communism" for there to be a 50/50 chance of Republicans getting it.
Conservatives like Star Trek because it promotes the values of meritocracy, hierarchy, authority, and military discipline. None of these are commonly held by people in the American left (especially not the academic left, which tend to be pretty anti-hierarchical, anti-authoritarian).
The people usually referred to as Republicans these days are right-wing populists. They have very little in common with the types of conservatives who loved the franchise in the 20th century. Those older conservatives are almost extinct in the Republican Party today.

Troll or idiot?! Taking all bets! I also offer videoooo poookkeeer!
The right loves meritocracy. To them it means everyone got what they deserve, from the homeless to the billionaires.
Oh, is that why they kept ethnic minorities out of positions of power and established structures of "not what you know, but who you know" and established "legacy admissions" for the children of huge donors?
No, that's because they're racist. They can have different motivations to do what they do.
they have "legacy admissions" for inbred, stupid children of rich donors because they are racist and not because their father donated the "Libertarian Friedman" wing of the campus?
@Archangel1313 Noooo, true ST is about straight manly men kicking alien butts!
