but it’s hard to imagine someone who thinks like that finding anything to like about Star Trek.
For those folk, my guess is they cherry pick all the flaws and celebrate them, like the:
hyper masculinity of the Klingons
female suppression of the Ferengi
meritocracy of deception of the Romulans
female enslavement of the Orions
authoritarian control of the Founders
the brutality to the weak of the Cardassians
biological forced sexual intercourse of the Vulcans
stubborn and rude arguments of the Telorites
racism of the Andorians
They take all the flaws introduced to each race and celebrate those as evidence of an ideal. These folks don’t realize that each race has a flaw in them to show their imperfection.
For the most part they have a reasonably generous pacing of violence throughout many (if not most) episodes. The ones that don’t probably get panned by these people as ‘one of the boring ones’

I think it’s much simpler than that. They watch it for the pew pew space battles and ignore the messaging.
Anyone who watches Star Trek for the space battles must REAAAALLLY be into delayed gratification.

VOY was probably the one with the most pew-pew per season and it was the most watched series on Netflix, back before Paramount+.
Violence yes, starship combat not so much (in the TV shows anyway). I love watching the battles from the movies but yeah, that shit’s expensive yo!
Hey, we don’t have to get personal here :(
They must have very complex feelings about the moclans if they also watch Star Trek adjacent shows.
