Yeah, it seems idealism is not in vogue, especially the kind of idealism that wants to see people as professional, in command of their faculties, yet not distant or aloof. It seems people have trouble outgrowing their tribal egotistical manners and behaviors.

It’s not at all bad, in general many people work together in a global complex society, but, oh boy, lots of evolution to be had if we want a better, more kinder world.

My current pet peeve is the emotional reactivity it elicits of any social media in its worst forms.



> in command of their faculties

As great and optimistic as ST:TNG was, don't forget that in the later seasons, they basically resorted to "which crew member goes crazy in this episode?", I guess because the writers ran out of ideas.
