You’ve clearly never watched trek if you think the Borg or Dominion are the “secret good guys” of trek.
The federation is the USSR / tankies, a collection of nations / peoples who willingly entered into an alliance to share resources and tech, defeat poverty, and help each other solve problems.
My bet is that the person who runs that youtube channel is an ultra/anarchist who thinks that socialist entities can’t have militaries.

There’s no chance a 60s US TV show would be trying to promote the USSR. The more recent shows would never do that either. It’s a liberal progressive vision of a future non-evil America.
The video is arguing that Star Trek portrays the Star Fleet(the US) as the good guys and they are threatened by the bad guys (the Klingons or the Borg or whoever) who don’t follow the rules of the Federation (which just happens to have a HQ on Earth). But if you join the Federation (NATO), you get protection from the evil guys who have no freedom and just want slaves. The Enterprise is based off the USS Enterprise, America’s first nuclear aircraft carrier.

True. I didn’t say they were great. They have a hilariously shit take on the Three Body Problem.

A whole bunch of people in Hollywood were arrested for being sympathetic to socialism. Sure, they couldn’t directly say they support the USSR, but that’s not what the comment above says. It’s a veiled reference to USSR like attributes (potentially). If someone wanted to talk about the USSR in a good way, something like Star Trek is how they would have to do it. Is it? I don’t know, but I can see that argument being true. Could it be? Absolutely.

That names has been used for many ships for centuries, including two other aircraft carriers. It has a long history that isn’t just aircraft carriers.
Their comment is peak Qanon/twitter/youtube media criticism. They’ll take any surface-level thing, like names, numbers, colors, dress, and spend hours incoherently trying to prove some random point that has nothing to do with anything. Twitter and youtube algorithms reward them and thrive off the engagement.
