Heinlein is one of my favorite writers. He actually introduced me to libertarianism with The Moon is a Harsh Mistress or There’s No Such Thing As a Free Lunch.
Well, actually if you look at it, it was anti-globalist. The world of starship troopers is united
So really, it's anti-globalist fascism
Still it was satire
I mean look at star wars right
Well yeah. Eventually the world will be one big country in like 300ish years.
They made the empire fashy as fuck
I have very different ideas on patriotism. I'm a patriot not from the point of view that my country is the greatest, but from the point of view that my country tries and can always do better
That's what we Americans do
The Empire still did nothing wrong. Fucking space ISIS out here plotting terrorist attacks in the name of a hokey religion.
@thatgoonsteve42 alderan was an inside job
Totally
Oh my gods
My political stance makes no fucking sense
I'm fairly right wing and a die hard constitutionalist
Same on most issues
If you wanna change that, cut out the fat. Trim it down so that it's basic and easy to understand. That's how the commies did it and look how easily they took control of like twenty countries in the course of a few decades
For me it's this
Don't fuck with people's rights, help people who are in need, and mind your business
Yep.
I also have very different views about why guns need to be protected
For starters
gun control is racist
No shit Sherlock
star ship troopers wasnt fascism though
Finally someone who gets it! @thatgoonsteve42
in fascism no nation would show how a war was going bad
The NFA only came about because The Black Panthers we’re out here with MGs and shit
That was the Mulford Act. NFA was in the 30s
and people wouldn't own businesses
When it comes to guns. I think everyone should be legally required to own one and have training on how to use it. "A well armed society is a polite society"
#fortheeverlastinggloryoftheinfantry
That being said there's exceptions
its more like hyper libertariaism
Same thing @AKAlexei
you can ignore the government completely if so desired
and its almost frowned upon to join it
This is true @Trash Squid
The best concept of the book for me was the “you have to serve to have a say” facet
