What Gene Roddenberry says here is probably correct, but, sadly, our species seems to be headed in the opposite direction. Differences in ideas and attitudes are perceived as alien, as thus, as threatening.

I’m not sure that Fox News caused the decline of our nation, but it certainly makes some level of sense.
When I was young, there was no source of “news” that was based solely on the profit to be made by making Americans stupid and mean. In fact, news in most of the 20th Century really didn’t have any real commercial value, because it wasn’t used to sell drugs and useless crap to elderly, addle-minded white people 24 hours a day.
Thirty years later, we have people who are as addicted to this hate news as alcoholics need another shot of booze.
