I can’t remember what series it is, but one of the newer series has a scene where someone is asking why the federation won’t give them replicator tech. And the federation dude basically lays out how replicator tech before society is ready leads to oppression not liberation. That humanity only got replicator tech after they already came together and threw off the old ways. Replicator tech didn’t lead to socialism for them. Socialism lead to replicator tech.
