Probably need to take the opinions of scholastic theologians (apologists) with a grain of salt. What he’s seeing is a reflection of the material reality that religious prohibitions are tools of the ruling class to control the proletariat. The ruling class rarely subjects themselves to their own prohibitions, so therefore they felt more free to ignore the church whenever they felt like it. Homosexuals exist in bourgeoisie families in equal proportion to proletariat families. It’s an aspect of human behavior that has nothing to do with class. It’s relation to class has only to do with the fact that certain privileged classes are just more free to live their lives as they see fit.

That’s not really the danger here. The danger is creating killer robots that feed on humans. In sci-fi this never ends well.

Well written, comrade. This deserves a Marx’s coat award.

Not really. DS9 has a plot thread where O’Brien inspires Rom (a member of a hyper-capitalist species) to form a union and go on strike.
