Old school SFF book nerds: "I don't like any book that lectures or tries to force any political point of view on me."

Also old school SFF book nerds: "You really need to read more Robert A. Heinlein." #noxp

I didn't mean to diss Heinlein BTW.

But the notion that SFF used to be apolitical and only recently started to have express messages is pretty ludicrous. #noxp

@charliejane Or for that matter CS Lewis’s “That Hideous Strength”
