"My feelings as a Christian points me to my Lord and Savior as a fighter. It points me to the man who once in loneliness, surrounded by a few followers, recognized these Jews for what they were and summoned men to fight against them and who, God's truth! was greatest not as a sufferer but as a fighter. In boundless love as a Christian and as a man I read through the passage which tells us how the Lord at last rose in His might and seized the scourge to drive out of the Temple the brood of vipers and adders. How terrific was His fight for the world against the Jewish poison. To-day, after two thousand years, with deepest emotion I recognize more profoundly than ever before the fact that it was for this that He had to shed His blood upon the Cross. As a Christian I have no duty to allow myself to be cheated, but I have the duty to be a fighter for truth and justice... And if there is anything which could demonstrate that we are acting rightly it is the distress that daily grows. For as a Christian I have also a duty to my own people.Which ones embodied the idea of genocide and mass murder?

In case after case Kirk goes against the left wing beliefs of Spock and McCoy and makes decisions based on "classical liberal"/Modern American conservative principals…not socialist collectivism.
There's no such thing as a "Classical Liberal". And all governments involve collectivism and socialism. The Constitution of the United States, which was written with almost no conservative input, is peppered with Socialism.
