Heinlein is like the ur-example of, "Don't assume an author has the same opinions as his characters." The Moon is a Harsh Mistress and Starship Troopers are like diametrically opposed politics and both fantastic. Stranger is...yeah, drugs. #books #Heinlein #politics

Quote from “Friday” - Robert Heinlein
This is a brilliant line that can be read two ways. It’s something I try to do.

I am currently reading "Stranger in a Strange Land", and I am not sure I want to finish it.

#Heinlein would be very angry at #Musk for calling his resource-guzzling propaganda machine " #Grok." Those of us who know what that word means know that #ElonMusk clearly does NOT know what that word means.

I would rather the Moon spoke Chinese.
Like unto the Mr. Grinch song, pejorative lyrics that are no help to anyone. 'Demonization' of a class is always suspect.
Haven't seen the movie, maybe they work it out.

Well, I did read another book in fact and it was this book for babies

Heinlein. The 33 Crash Landings from "Starship Troopers."
Being an undocumented immigrant is probably not one of them! Being a pedophile probably is.

Heinlein again! This is right out of "The Moon Is A Harsh Mistress."

#Grok (/ˈɡrɒk/) is a neologism coined by the American writer Robert A. #Heinlein in his 1961 science fiction novel Stranger in a Strange Land.
#Stranger in a Strange Land. Let that sink in.

Watching this makes me wonder if the Ultrahumanite / Dolores Winter body swap had any effect on #Heinlein 's _I Will Fear No Evil_

And for money! He made the movie, that is, and got paid. I ve argued with Heinlein in my mind lots, and never got paid.
The city fathers of Carthage reference (to justify violence) for instance. They are clearly at work in the world of today.
Violence gets you nowhere worth going.

I always never said that Heinlein was not fascist. I might do such a thing . . .
Literary stuff, narrative, the uselessness of villains, like that I meant.
#Heinlein
It's like civil rights, if some lose them, all lose them.
If bugs and orcs are allowed no humanity, Frodo and Rico are less.
And done to justify violence. In a book. You don't need to justify anything to me, Bob!
#Heinlein #Tolkien
Heinlein and Tolkien endeavor to make antagonist, antagonist-er. To justify violence, perhaps.
What they both meant was fascism, but they couldn't say that.

The 'recall music' from "Starship Troopers" the book. His unit had "The Ballad of Roger Young" if I remember right.
A thing would be dissing each other's recall music, such as, "Your units' recall music is 'Dance of the Sugarplum Fairies.'"

Where is Jubal Harshaw when you need him ? Asking for a friend. Peace! #sisl #heinlein #book #bestbookever #peace #read #library
I like to point out that at the same time #Heinlein wrote #StarshipTroopers he also wrote #StrangerInAStrangeLand which some called the "Hippie Bible".
