A new nuclear missile is coming, a gigantic ICBM called the Sentinel. It marks the largest cultural shift in 60 years in the land leg of the Air Force’s nuclear missile mission.

The fact that humanity needs the threat of nukes to maintain peace, says a lot of the disparity between the advancements of our technology and the limitations of our own primitive mentality.
I wish we were more like Star Fleet.
Last time I watched star trek high I almost cried… it’s not fair!!! That could be us but the capitalist scum playin with our lives instead.
Best the world’s oligarch trash can do is the ferengi alliance (the TNG version, not ds9)

Oh wait, never mind.

There's a whole bunch going on they don't talk about. There may not be money, but there's a shit load of cronyism and politics. I can only imagine the classes too. Who decides who gets land? Who gets a ship? Where me how big is your house? How does one get a job they like? There's still gardeners, construction workers, janitors, plumbers, electricians, fast food workers, and everything else. They've got IDs, so something resembling the DMV still exists too. Who wants that job? Crime 100% still exists at all levels and the courts have proven to be less than fair in many episodes.
I'd argue humans and ferengi are super similar except humans are not as outwardly greedy.
even in that world, humans still had to take things to the brink.
We’re just on the wrong side of the horrible wars that lead to the Federation
In order for Star Fleet to happen, we'd need WW3.
Why do you think WW3 would finally inspire us to stop killing eachother? What makes you think there will be anything left?
Haven't you watched Star Trek first contact? They talked about WW3 destroying governments so Cochrane built a Star Ship from an old ICBM with warp drives. Once they go faster than light, Vulcuns visit us and boom... We're a space exploring species. Peace ensues.
The one that Spock comes out of some kind of pod ?
No. First Contact was the Picard crew.
Yeah, but who was the first Vulcan that arrived on earth ? Wasn't it spock?
T'Mir was in 1957.
The three in FC were named T'Pau, Soval, and Solkar.
Oh good, we just have to rely on an alien intervention after we break the laws of physics in a controlled manner, in the aftermath of a devastating conflict.
