Wow

I was pleasently surprised by Starship Troopers

It was a very good counter argument to foundation

👌🏼

Foundation, as in Asimov's Foundation?

Yes that foundation

It's a very interesting idea of how 2 of the greatest writers to ever live had 2 completely different takes on the universe and sci-fi

They were in the same social circles as well

Same with L Ron Hubbard

Asimovs "Violence is the last refuge of the incompetent."
Vs Heinleins
"Violence, naked force, has settled more issues in history than has any other factor."

That 2nd quote really got me

Specifically in the context of that book

The difference, is when you use it. <:makes_you_think:382980749780844554>

There are no dangerous weapons; there are only dangerous men

Heinlein used to be a full on commie

I'ma use that quote now on from as both pro gun and anti islam

I assume WW2 happened to him?

Or the gulag arcapeligo?

Yeah, I'm sure the news of Russia and Hitler turned him off of it

He and his wife were Hollywood socialists, and got redpilled as the 50s wore on

I'll look up his life later when I have a computer

Woah this is active AF

Congrats on the promotion @AsianMessiah

It took a while

His commie wife was a psychologist and maintained her degenerate lifestyle

But finally got there boo

Not really. Level 8 isn't hard.

@Shurik He went from Commie to Civic Libertarian over the course of 20 years

I went the same way in less than 2 years

And it shows in *The Moon is a Harsh Mistress*

Ty God Emperor Trump

And well surprisingly my Russian degree

Douglas Murray is muh guy

Murray?

Not Adams?

Timmy got woke on the white race O.O

No murray

What about BOTH Rothbard AND Smith?

I'm definitely going to read more of him considering he's the most decorated sci-fi writer of all time.

@Wes The Savage

And then Asimov.
