@UshankaShow It's a world where manual labor doesn't exist, and money doesn't exist, and people are left to well do pretty much what they want as long as it isn't harming other people of course. Also things like smoking, alcohol, meat and many other things are illegal, they have synthetic imitations of all of it. Basically a 70/80s Socialist wet dream Utopian Scenario.
So glad that the writer for Star Trek Deep Space 9 kind of crapped all over the Utopian vision of the previous shows, but Deep Space Nine became one of the most beloved series of the franchise. They even brought money back in that series because none all the alien races viewed the world the same as the "Federation" did so the crew on Deep Space Nine had to have money to deal with/trade on the Space Station.
Basically where the original 60s era TV series was a Space Submarine Exploration series. The 80s era Next Generation TV series was Socialist Utopian Dream scenario, with the crew living on a ship which the ship provided them with everything they could want and what work was done was voluntary work for self fulfillment or duty to the crew and their missions. laughs
So so glad Deep Space Nine came along. I liked the original 60s era TV show, but man Next Generation was so... unrealistic/unbelievable, so happy go lucky sunshine/rainbows it made me despise it. I was born in the 80s and I even hated Next Generation. I did like the movies based off Next Generation though just not the TV show. Deep Space Nine added some reality/grit that the Next Generation series so badly lacked. Technology often didn't work, people had to get their hands dirty a lot, manual labor was necessary, rage inducing to a point a drink at the local pub on the space Station was almost required. It threw out that Utopian nonsense for reality.
