Roddenberry envisioned the show as Horatio Hornblower in space. Hornblower was a British naval officer.
In one of the trek vids he says it is not a military organization Trekkies I think.
That is all I am going off of.

Plot holes. There were a ton of them. A lot of lazy writing.
Watched today. Thought it was pretty dope. The villain was a G, very well acted. I was a fan of Kirk and Spock from the previous movie and the whole crew did their thing too.
I have 0 knowledge of Star Trek until I watched the previous movie when they rebooted the series, so I am a "casual" viewer I guess. Funny how when it comes to Marvel/DC movies I get hella irked when they fukk with the source material whereas in cases like this I'm

movie was fire..the 3D was worth it
but in retorspect the only critique I had was Kahn didnt have the swag as the original..i felt that was the only thing lacking..charisma in the character
I never say that video, but it`s well known that Roddenberry lost his mind as he got older and was forced to take a step back from Trek because he was ruining the franchise, but lets ignore my opinions on his mental facilities. Going by the logic of that quote, if my girl comes catches me in bed, naked with her best friend, and I say I`m not cheating, I guess she has no reason to be mad because I said I`m not cheating even though all the evidence shows otherwise.
Captain James T. Kirk: I'm a soldier, not a diplomat. I can only tell you the truth.
That quote was from the first season episode Errand of Mercy on Star Trek the original series.

The problem with that quote is that the Enterprise wasn't a military ship, but an exploratory vessel. Literally everything about Star Trek, from the intro to the show to the majority of the plotlines contradict it. Also factor in the political context of the times- Roddenberry was deliberately creating a Utopian vision of humanity, not a militaristic one, in deliberate contrast to Cold War politics.
