LISTEN UP YOU APES! This is the first of a three part series. It’s about young men and women fighting giant bugs – and by the way, they’re fascists. The chapters:

CORRECTIONS:

• Heinlein’s Navy isn’t all female, the positions of starship pilot were prioritized for women.
• during the lead-in to the Fanon part I say “Juan Rico” when I meant to refer to Ramon Magsaysay-likely the inspiration for the character
• I fail to mention that the 3rd act of Stranger in a Strange Land is about Smith founding a sex cult
• I also don’t mention the 2nd alien race from the book, The Skinnies, because they seemed pretty irrelevant to the topic
• I didn’t show enough of Michael’s cats. So sorry.

More information to follow. DISMISSED.

PSST! Hey you! Wanna know how to spot fascism in action?
