Thinking about the many, many conservatives who thought Starship Troopers was a good, fun romp about killing evil aliens, think we're supposed to agree with the racist rants in the Sopranos, consider Gordon Gekko a role model, etc.

Oh hell yeah. It's actually how I got here. The Chapo boys were guests at a live showing of the movie. Saw that on YouTube found the pod then the subreddit now I'm here.
It's basically Triumph of the Will against Space Bugs. It's a weird anti fascist movie because it depicts fascists from their own POV. It's a very odd kind of satire.
Something I think Matt pointed out which I never picked up on which seems totally obvious now is that the movie is basically the movie the fascists from a planet waging war on bugs would make about that war
There's a Horror Vanguard episode about it, too, which is good.
