But very much part of it, if it can be spunon the other side of the Iron Curtain that shows TOS as a future where Marxism worked, and thrived.Lets try to get back on topic.

This, that is the perfect timeframe, maybe they convice give them the right for a long time and become popular in SU enough to get imitators(chekov help a lot, he is russian and mention leningard too)eing sold in order to help recoup the production losses. That would be a good time for the Soviets (Or any other Eastern Bloc country) to have been able to purchase the broadcast license for Star Trek at an affordable price.
Although in OTL, the East Bloc countries (especially Poland, Hungary, and the USSR) had a large degree of sci-fi fandom, they never aired the "Star Trek" Original or Next Generation series on TV, until after Communism fell in the 90s, nor they showed the Star Trek movies in theatres.
In Hungary, Star Trek: The Original Series, concurrently with The Next Generation, Deep Space Nine, and Voyager, only started airing in Hungarian TV with Hungarian dubbing around 1997, and this was also the time when older Star Trek movies started to be shown on TV, and newer movies started to be shown in local cinemas. Despite this, a Hungarian Star Trek Convention complete with dressing-up as characters from the Show (perhaps the first such occasion from a former East Bloc country) was organized by the year 2000. By 2003, a healthy Hungarian Trekker Scene was around.
But what if for some reason, the East Bloc wasn't so isolated from this franchise and even in the late 60s, many Eastern European countries started airing the Original Series, showing the movies in the 70s, and also airing the Next Generation in the late 80s? How would this have effected Eastern European culture?
I have a feeling that this particular episode might not be shown.TOS didn’t. Like Marathag you’re taking Roddenberry’s TNG retcons and retroactively applying them to the original show.
But if you think that TOS was pro-communist then I have three words: The Omega Glory.
Written BY Roddenberry.
Why?I have a feeling that this particular episode might not be shown.
I was under the impression that the Soviet historical stance was that the American Revolution was an elite bourgeois revolt of no real value?Why?
the Yangs were nationalistic savages that forgot about what their history stood for? That fits with the Soviet line that the US fell well short of what the Constitution promised almost 200 years beforehand
I was under the impression that the Soviet historical stance was that the American Revolution was an elite bourgeois revolt of no real value?
but does the Star Trek world and the Federation not exemplify the full on automated Communism beloved of woke left crackpots?
It would likely be dubbed into being totally in line with the party line.
The main problem is that the Klingons, at least in the original series, are blatantly supposed to be Soviet Russia.
