        Dude "You should have to provide service to the abstract idea that is 'the nation' in order to get your human rights" is just fascism, no matter how you try to spin it.

          To be protected by that country yes.

          See how long you get to have your rights when you stop paying taxes or ignore the laws of the state

            This nerd thinks that countries are real, and not just a legal fiction invented basically yesterday in historical terms.

        starship troopers the movie was a literal send-up of fascism and you are sitting here arguing that we should do fascism so absurd it is the realm of actual parody

        or you're advocating for the book's straight up fascism. either way, you should eat a bullet, nazi.

            I'm on about the book.

            It's militaristic but it isn't fascism.

            doubt

            Heinlein was a fascist, full stop. Verhoeven didn't even finish the book before he directed the movie because he hated the fascist ideology in it and tried to satirize it in the movie but both the actors involved and a lot of audience members missed the satire.
