13yo and I just finished watching Star Trek: TOS episode "The Empath." I immediately went down an internet rabbit hole and discovered an article on how deeply relevant this episode is in our world today:
The "dichotomy between the Vians' cruelty and Gem's quiet strength reinforces a recurring theme in 'Star Trek'—true power lies in empathy, not domination."
