...Sheeeesh, More lib/left "Hate the Majority" type "groupthink". By any chance are you a minority? (Being a WOMAN is NOT a "minority") I do not mind a little liberal thinking, but when it is based alone of Cultural Marxism dogma that makes no sense, then it is time for you to consider rethinking your position.
Star Trek Without Starfleet?

Huh? Starfleet isn't a character.
A heads-up, just in case you weren't aware of what you were actually saying or its origin--you probably want to find another term to get your point across. That one doesn't paint you in a very flattering light.

This post is crossing two lines: 1) Discussion of real-world politics belongs in Miscellaneous or The Neutral Zone; 2) Discussions should be about the post, not the poster. This is a Friendly. More of the above gets an actual Warning.
Here's some recommended reading.
LOL! Written by someone who IS "policall6y Correct" , written to paint anyone who uses the term as a Fascist. yeah, What's next, banning me so I cannot have the right to speak my mind? THAT is FASCISM.
You've taken your first solid step in that direction.
You've earned a Warning for Trolling. Comments to PM (the Conversations feature on the upper right of the page).

As my mother always taught me, manners cost nothing 
I'd totally forgotten I started this thread, lol! Always nice when old ideas resurface and make you think about them again, wondering if maybe there might be something to work on in the fanfic universe, hmm...

I am NOT "trolling" (Of course THAT is what the ZEALOUS SJW types would call it), Just stating my OPINION.
This was pretty much the premise of Tim Russ's "Renegades," and why I dug it. If you write your own story though, I'll be reading it!
You've only been here a few months, if you find the time to read my posts I really don't think that "Liberal/left" is the term you would apply to me.
Although it's possible that I'm to the left of you?
Hardly a hate the majority situation. My intent would be more the Humans would be "a sojourner in a foreign land,” and in an environment that they (and the audience?) would find new, challanging and even a bit awkward.
Having a Human on a Starfleet vessel is comfortable, you would be surrounded by a large number of other Humans (not all) and a social culture where you fit in, because you grew up in it.
Now put the same Human in a foreign culture, far from home, they don't know all the rules, they sometimes struggle with nuance, and they make mistakes. The other people on the ship (mostly non-Human aliens) aren't going to adapt to the Human/federation ways of doing things. I believe in diversity, so I wouldn't want the Human(s) to assimilate, just being in a position to learn.
If this was set during a time when the federation is in conflict with another civilization, and a part of the mixed crew is from there, how would this effect relations between the Human and them?
Board policy is that moderator actions are discussed in private, not publicly in the threads. You're on your way to earning your next Warning if this keeps up.
@Tenacity , please don't publicly continue a discussion that got the other party a Warning. Thanks.

Indeed. I really like it.
I really like the idea. I've always had a little wonder into what the Alliance that Worf mentioned was all about. I also had thoughts of a futuristic Foreign Legion type organization. Although I never really thought of it as apart of another planet or race. It sounded like more of a Pirate type of simply working for profit shares maybe? But who knows.
But I would watch for sure

awww, Don't care forr the TRUTH?
..perhaps like the Klingon/Cardassian 'alliance" in the "mirror, mirror" universe in those episodes of DS9 ?I really like the idea.

Damn shame they could OT spend more on sets. YEEESH! (And people complain about the sets of the original "Star Trek")
