| | |While every ''Star Trek'' series touches upon liberal themes, ''DS9'' is without a doubt the most left-wing of all the ''Star Trek'' series. One episode, "Rejoined", contains a lesbian kiss, one episode shows a male character being transformed into a female, and many episodes contain anti-Christian and anti-American jokes. Also, the ever-present relationships between human and non-human characters serve as a promotion of bestiality. In addition, many of the characters possess the smarter-than-thou personality that's all too common among liberals. This was even acknowledged by the showrunner for DS9, Ira Steven Behr, by stating that "I know they got a lot of negative feedback, which only goes to prove a point I always believed in, which is that science fiction fans and Star Trek fans are much more conservative than people want to believe, and this whole Gene Roddenberry liberal Humanistic vision is truly not shared by a significant portion of them." | | |While every ''Star Trek'' series touches upon liberal themes, ''DS9'' is without a doubt the most left-wing of all the ''Star Trek'' series.

| − | |Although initially more politically neutral during the first season when it aired on CBS (having some Liberal messages such as promoting feminism to a certain extent, and also some Conservative messages such as having Cat Grant admitting that she regretted choosing her career over a son she conceived out of wedlock in one episode [which would have been against Feminist ideology] as well as the main Kryptonian villains of the first season explicitly being environmentalists, and their main plan of Myriad also being revealed to be a mind control plot with various statements echoing the liberal ideology.), it went hard-left when it was moved to the CW, including promoting the homosexual agenda by making Alex Danvers, the adoptive sister of Kara Zor-El, the titular character, a lesbian (and, as of the Season Two finale, having her propose to get "married" to her girlfriend, police detective Maggie Sawyer). In addition, the current season has several pot-shots against any attempts at cutting down illegal immigration (such as the main villain Cadmus's ultimate plan essentially being to relocate aliens back to their home planet), and also featured (especially after the 2016 election cycle) several pot shots against Donald Trump (with one episode, "Exodus", indirectly alluding to Trump's election and his being falsely labeled a "fascist" with the character Snapper Carr telling Kara when firing her that leaving out one fact will likely result in "A fascist being elected president"), with the beginning of the season also having the president being female (played by Lynda Carter, most well known for her role as the title character in the live-action ''[[Wonder Woman]]'' in the 1970s) in an obvious attempt at predicting Hillary Clinton as being president, even explicitly being called a Democrat in the penultimate episode of the second season (it also shows the president as an alien in human disguise, which may be a veiled reference to [[Barack Obama]] and the background he has attempted to hide via sealing of his records). Regarding the Trump burns, the penultimate episode of the second season even has the audacity to compare Rhea, the evil and tyrannical ruler of the planet Daxam, and her Daxamites' invasion of Earth to Donald Trump via Cat Grant paraphrasing Trump's "Make America Great Again" statement and attributing it to the Daxamite invaders, even though the overall methods they used to invade Earth were far closer to that of the illegal immigrants that Trump was trying to deport, including their explicitly trying to remake Earth upon invasion to resemble Daxam. In addition, the liberal infiltration into all aspects of ''Supergirl'' even reflects in the titles of the second season's final two episodes: "Resist" (a Democrat code word, derived from Hillary Clinton's message to her supporters on the Left to "resist" the Trump administration by any means necessary following her defeat in the 2016 Presidential election, and to a lesser extent derived from a similar codeword used by student radicals during the 1960s, most infamously used by the 500 students occupying the amphitheater at the University of Vincennes on January 1969.) and "Nevertheless, She Persisted" (which relates to an incident in the Senate where Democrat Senator [[Elizabeth Warren]] persisted, despite being told several times to cease, in denouncing [[Jeff Sessions]] during the vote to confirm him as Attorney General<ref>[http://ew.com/tv/2017/05/01/supergirl-season-2-finale-title/ ''Supergirl'' boss reveals timely finale title] at Entertainment Weekly</ref>). | + | |Although initially more politically neutral during the first season when it aired on CBS (See [[Essay:Greatest Conservative TV Shows#Debatable whether Conservative|its entry within the "Debatable whether Conservative" section of Greatest Conservative TV Shows]] for more information.), it went hard-left when it was moved to the CW, including promoting the homosexual agenda by making Alex Danvers, the adoptive sister of Kara Zor-El, the titular character, a lesbian (and, as of the Season Two finale, having her propose to get "married" to her girlfriend, police detective Maggie Sawyer).
