From my outsider perspective, I'd agree. But then the only ST I really, really like is Voyager and everyone tells me that's no good, so obviously I am not Proper and Correct in these views. I did, however enjoy the film with the whales, of course, because I think that's obligatory for everyone. ;-)
And these days I don't mind the Federation so much - it is interesting to contemplate how to do a Utopia rather than a dystopia, and not very easy. But things being what they are, it's also easy to find questionable things in it, too, or the way it sometimes was accidentally portrayed, so I'm sure your thingy will be interesting! Also, as I said, if I want to explore the flip-side of the coin, I have my wonderful, tacky and excellent B7 to do that for me.
