Northerners weren't simply more high minded than southerners concerning slavery - industrialization lessened their dependence on slaves to the point where they could abandon slavery without the economy crumbling.
Presumably this would happen in the south as they industrialized as well.
We grant you the rank of EU member, but you are not in Europe.

I'm not sure how to spoiler tag so I'll be vague, but I think it was necessary to have her opt into that romance even though she knew there was a tragic ending to it.
Oh and the short story is very good, as is Ted Chiang's entire collection. I would definitely recommend reading them to any scifi fan.
It happens in the short story too.
It really bothered me that they didn't even mention the doctor, what with seven of nine being there and the ai plotline. But after watching more of Picard, I'm glad they didn't and especially glad they mostly steered clear of ds9.
There is an episode later where Data defends the rights of a less-human-looking artificial life (the one with exocomps), though no courtroom scenes.
I think most star trek episodes can be torn apart pretty easily - I actually enjoy pointing out errors while I watch. But it's good drama and themes with fun characters in an optimistic future, which is still a rarity decades later.
Also who says "anyone can become president"? Liars and the gullible, I guess
What's wrong with whacking it to sports illustrated? Who is being harmed?

Don't like the sound of that
Didn't the huge group of humans that could never agree on anything all decide to go live without technology with cave men at the end? It's been a very long time since I watched it but I remember hating that. iirc there were some unresolved plot lines too, but I don't remember enough to list them. I was a huge fan of the early seasons.
