"The Socialist Iteration" title card.

"The Socialist Iteration" is one of the "Forbidden Episodes" of the television series Star Trek.

Plot

Mister Spock, while conducting research on pre-spaceflight socialism, observes:

The word "socialism", like the word "love", is understood completely by those who experience it — and completely misunderstood by those who do not. It appears impossible to prove its existence, yet we have assertions from nearly every society that love between individuals scales up to love within a society for itself as a whole.

The episode has been compared to "My Dinner with Andre", with Spock as Andre.

TO_DO - cast Star Trek crew member as the other guy in "My Dinner"
