Well, except for the Borg and all that stuff.
I think I would want one where there was no big bad.

/c/TenForward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

And on the opposite side we have "I'd rather be human trafficed into a nazi concentration camp than spend even 5 minutes in the universe of Warhammer 40K."
I'm sorry, like, I would choose 5 minutes in Warhammer 40K versus the Nazi death camps.
My overweight native ass would be tortured to death over the period of several months, whereas five minutes in Warhammer 40k, like maybe I catch a stray bullet, maybe I get gang raped by orcs, but more than likely I survive, and I'm relatively unharmed.
Based on what I know, 99% of humans live in hive worlds and will never see conflict. The stories, the wars? Galaxy wide - like just looking at a map of the galaxy and how long space travel takes? Not just the warp traitors, but orks and Nids with their "proper" propulsion? The worst most humans will face is Darktide-style incursions of rot under a hive, and even then the upper levels may not even be aware of such.
The far and wide galaxy of Warhammer may certainly not be good, as theres settings like Star Trek where no matter where you go youre rocking a good time - but idk the worst most humans have to deal with is god-aweful mismanagement and ineffective government of the hive, maybe a Mechanicus comes to town and calls people "pre-servitors" for awhile and then fucks off back to Mars. The cities are beautiful when they're not on fire. Chances of being born to a mundane non-hellscape and living and dying with nothing happening are pretty good tbh

Star Trek. I can live on Earth free of the stress of being disabled with mental illness in a capitalist hell. The worst thing I'd have to worry about is some kind of alien invasion that gets thwarted by the crew of the Enterprise from time to time. I'd rather have to deal with the latest Doom Cruiser from Beyond the Stars now and then than have to worry about if I'll be able to afford groceries this month.
"Gay space communism" is my new favorite description for Star Trek.
"Fully automated luxury gay space communism" is the full phrase fyi

Uhhh...
It's quite easy too. UBI.
Musk has a good talking point about a Star Trek future instead of skynet. But he is part of the cabal going for skynet. Just because Skynet will be programmed for US government and military supremacy in political service to its zionist oligarchy, doesn't make skynet less of your enemy.
So long as you're in the right timeline/universe. I'm not sure I'd fit into the Terran Empire that well.
No, don't live on Earth in Star Trek.
As the functional capital of the federation and HQ of starfleet, its like living in DC comics Metropolis. Every damned alien race capable of plotting has a secret plot on Earth. Whether its some weird parasitic bugs taking over the admiralty, the borg, the romulans, the Dominion, or the upstart of the week, the casualty/injury rate has to be pretty horrific.
Mars is theoretically ideal, but get targeted because of the massive public shipyards, so it has a time limit of being good.
Jupiter, however, has less well known shipyards and all those moons to explore. It never gets outright attacked or destroyed, even the Borg just go past it. Jupiter is the place to be.
You want an m class planet, not just a dome. There are tons of nice planets that were early colonies that are fully developed now.
