Every hippie I’ve ever met has been a racist piece of shit. Hippies were anti war, anti draft privileged children of upper middle class white families. Free love, as long as it was heteronormative, drugs for everybody, as long as they’re white.
It’s not surprising that Trek didn’t embrace that movement.
Steve Jobs was a hippie. He changed the world. The counter culture played a big part in the invention of the personal computer. Trek rejected this aspect of the 60’s era free thought, and embraced the more conservative Nixon silent majority view. Pretty far from social justice IMHO.
Ok. Steve Jobs was an effective leader, who made some fatally stupid decisions, was so hard to work with he got fired for being an asshole more than once, and blatantly lied about the fathership of his own child because he didn’t feel like being a father. When literally everybody knew he was the only person that even could be the father, including Jobs himself.
