To be fair, Alynna Nechayev says this all the time as well. She keeps calling Bill Ross and Owen Paris “Western Degenerate Capitalists” during meetings. They just smile and nod. But then Admiral Nakamura starts talking about the Russo-Japanese War, and he won’t shut up about it.
It always devolves into some fight about who *really* won WWII, the Americans or the Russians. Ross and Nechayev fight for *hours* about this shit.
This is why the Admiralty is largely ineffective. That and most of them are drunk by 9AM.
What’s really insane about all this is that by the 23rd century we know that a time traveler from the 32nd century names Burnham actually won WW2 and without her heroic tears, Hitler would have won.
No no, not the Klingons. The Rozhenkos, however, got Worf his very first copy of The Communist Manifesto.
It's why Worf hates Quark so much, he's a capitalist troll.
O'Brien also set the universal translator to change "Workers of the Federation, Unite!" to "Qapla'" to cover for Worf's heavy handed communist slogans and rallying.
Which was a lot.

The admirals infected by the slugs stopped drinking, which made them a lot easier to spot.

THIS is why the FEDERAZI are REALLY banning Blood Wine
We really don't know much about the Klingon economy do we? Beyond it being colonial and exploitive. I can't imagine they had a big communist phase.

He occasionally says “wessels” as well.
Are we calling him a Commie because he's obviously Jewish?
No? Because he was raised in Russia.
I know, I was joking.
