Why Liberals Prefer Star Trek, and Conservatives Star Wars.
Liberals prefer Star Trek because it shows an advanced time, where a group of ethnically diverse people explore the universe trying to spread their idea of 'peace' and 'coexistence' all the while preferring diplomatic relations as apposed to war. During Star Trek the Next Generation, Capt. Picard constantly makes references to their overall mission being the discovery of new species and establishing diplomatic ties with them, while Liberals parade down the streets saying they tolerate every culture while at the same time condemning Jews.


Conservatives prefer Star Wars because within star Wars the overriding theme is preserving traditions in order to maintain the balance of power within the universe, not integrating every single culture within another, but keeping the galaxy divided while united, as apposed to Star Trek where their overall goal is that the Federation's views are that every culture should be integrated, and mixed. While the Star Wars universe maintains a healthy diversity, where there is no species mixing, where each planet maintains it's own traditions, uninterrupted by the Republic, but at the same time united and not imposing their views on anyone. Their only connection is the military, while in star trek they share everything, adhere to everything, and 'love' everyone and everything.

Re: Why Liberals Prefer Star Trek, and Conservatives Star Wars.
Also, many times within the Star trek galaxy, they maintain the idea that there is a relation between abstract reality, and dimensions as well as the human mind. And that "if you can think it, it exists" which is very Openly Liberal, where Liberals believe that all cultures, religions and traditions lead to an "enlightment"

Where as in Star Wars, they all maintain that the force is what controls and binds all life forms, which means all life forms are bound, not living in a place where it is their mind that controls the universe, but the force controls it, rather than millions of cultures, traditions and religions being considered "right" only the way of the force is known to be the truth.

The way Windu went down was a disgrace. His prowess came under scrutiny after that. I think he was riding on someone else's coat tails, and wasn't much of a fighter. Intergalactic Affirmative Action really. And OP said liberals prefer Star Trek.

Re: Why Liberals Prefer Star Trek, and Conservatives Star Wars.
It seems to me that you have these reversed. Conservatives do not recognize "group" differences and prefer peace through strength. No liberal ever discovered a new land and the current progressives in charge have cancelled the space program to use that money as handout to the Vulnibles. Conservatives do not focus on hyphenation or pander to special interest groups.

Liberals should prefer Star Wars because their overall them is to to maintain their balance of power by keeping everyone separate, and then pitting each group against one another. The state constantly that they are for mixing and diversity, but identify each group separately stating that each group maintain its own traditions.

Most liberals prefer the 'interfaith' movement rather than individual belief. Star Trek mixes cultures while in Star Wars cultures are kept on their planets to themselves, but are still part of a collective Union

There is plenty of war in Star Trek. It's not all roses and honey. As far as money goes, everyone has everything they need for FREE, and in unlimited amounts. Food, clothing etc. The only thing left to do is explore and fight when required.

Star Wars is a much less refined universe. It's just somewhat shallow. Star Trek's universe is very complete and fulfilling.

Exactly. Liberals do not like religious lore. However I do not agree that Star Wars has hippy BS, Star Wars is rough, they are in a constant battle for the force and the galaxy, the Jedi Order itself says they are not there to preserve peace, they are there to protect the republic, even if it means all out war as shown in Attack of the Clones. However in Star Trek, the Next Generation, every, almost every single dilemma is solved through diplomatic processes.
