::Overall, the show may not have been conservative, but "created to protest Vietnam"? Uh, no - One of its most famous episodes, "The City on the Edge of Forever", by having uber-pacifism take hold in the 30s and keep us out of WWII long enough for the Nazis to win, effectively accused the protestors of treason ([http://www.depauw.edu/SFs/backissues/62/franklin62art.htm] and don't take my word for it: one of the producers was asked years later if that was deliberate and said that "of course" it was).--[[User:ArchModerate|ArchModerate]] 15:46, 25 March 2013 (EDT)

:::In all fairness regarding that last point, leftists are rather notorious for comparing the right to Nazis, and inferring that World War II is the only "good war," so that's not exactly going to mean much, especially regarding disproving whether his intention was to protest the Vietnam War. I had a film professor who actually did look up to World War II and how we rightfully denounced the Nazis, and he was far enough to the left that he was VERY anti-Vietnam (even going as far as to claim we only went to the country just to raid their tin resources) and even anti-Military, and although he claims he and his hippie friends weren't communists, he implied at one point when he was showing us battleship ptomkin or whatever that film was that he was going to indoctrinate us into the Soviet Union's ideals.
