taxbaby commented on Are Conservatives Better at Creating Futuristic Stories?, at 3:57 PM on May 16
@Annalee Newitz: Neither have I; I stuck with the Ender's Game series for a while, and that wasn't doctrinaire conservative, but I hear from friends that his work has gotten much more ideological recently.

@quetzilla: I think that's more a failure of imagination than an inherently conservative trait; it's like when 16th-century painters did works depicting Biblical events but still insisted on putting them in 16th-century clothing.

The thing about Atlas Shrugged is that it inspired a pointed critique by the videogame Bioshock.
Further, if you want to talk about conservative sci-fi, you'd better bring in Orson Scott Card.

@ManchuCandidate: No worries; the morans (sic) would have to extensively handle or, um, bite them to be wounded.

"The show ends with a big cliffhanger: is Lex alive or dead?"
The answer to this question is always, always 'alive'.

I think that's 'lent his intimidating, gravely voice,' y'all.
Also, I'm sorry, but anime restylings are old hat.

@beelzebuddha: I don't think the fact that his misogyny was also the misogyny of his time exculpates him at all, any more than the hideous racism of authors during and after the Civil War is excused because that's what a lot of other people thought too.
