Read the book

yeah except Starship Troopers was a satire of it

^

No it wasn;t you cocks

i thought they were both critiques, just on different things

Robert Heinlein believed in those values

The original was written by a literal fascist

the movie was a satire

ahh i see

the movie is still damn good imo, when you're aware of the critique it's hilarious in a weird way

It's kinda like a Space Age Sparta

or the Germanic Legions the Romans used

whatever their fucking name was

Only citizens can vote, and since all citizens went through military service, the government is always hardline fascism/conservatism

still technically democracy ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

just like the DPRK

lol

what could go wrong

It's not really a democracy

that's p much why democracy isnt inherently virtuous

More, semi-democracy

North Korea has elections

but Kim is the only candidate

Because whoever the leader they vote in always has absolute power

Kim always gets 100% of the vote

isnt that still democracy by definition

He is so popular

North Korea would have worked if they weren't dumb commies

if it isnt rigged of course

No, presidents and prime ministers today do not have absolute power

North Korea wouldn't have existed without COmmies

I do like North Korea's "Juche" though

>North Korea
>Democracy
pick one, really.

yeah but couldnt you have a direct democracy with a dictator that must be voted on

Robert Heinlein was so fucking amazing

Juche is like North Korea's national spirit and tradition

it is why their work ethic is so strong yet living in a complete shithole

"The politics of North Korea takes place within the framework of the official state philosophy, Juche, a concept created by Hwang Jang-yop and later attributed to Kim Il-sung. The Juche theory is the belief that through self-reliance and a strong independent state, true socialism can be achieved."

Just replace socialism with <your_ideology>

anarcha feminism
