Yes, IIRC Ben didn't want to go for that reason but Cassidy talked him into just chilling about it. It was a decent scene and it's good they put it in there, but it got resolved and then skated past pretty damn quick.
IMO they did better with the whole episode where Ben had visions of being in the mid-20thC and directly experiencing oppression.
I get that it might get a bit grim to have a lot more of that kind of thing, but they did choose to make "humanity can and should get a lot better" a significant recurring theme of multiple series.
