I'm not sure if you watched any Star Trek... Do you think life on the Enterprise or whatever is terrible? Isn't human life portrayed pretty much as utopian as possible in Star Trek?
True but this episode in particular is fairly controversial and I can't imagine it aging well

“Fiction shouldn’t express opinion” is certainly an odd take.
