The country is full of libs who just can't wait for the society to break down to rape and loot everything. Could have prevented this by not taking away the guns!

Also, I love the astartes lodge meeting in the begining. No rank distinction, just the boys and their jokes.

I'm still confused about the nuke coup thing. Who did that and why? Did the supposed good guys just learn about it and go "well, at least it will kill the lefties?" I just love how terrified these people are of the lefties, like it was some zombie papist plot.

The violent reaction they have to traitors is also interesting, in that Imperium of Man looks less severe in their treatment of treason.

King's Duel has one rape militia group, but I never finished reading it, so it might have had more.

How is it that nukes are killing off women more stadily than men? I mean, aren't women more numerous? The survivor groups should be more equal, I'd think.

And why are those small towns depopulated if they only managed to hit big population centers.

There is an old post nuclear war RPG called Tomorrow Project. In the vein of all good old RPGs, it starts with a massively autistic chartaton to calculate what places get hit and by what, and how much radiation remains, and radiation sickness. One weird thing about it is that they include bacteriological ICBMs into the list. Where the soviets seriously deploying biological weapons in missiles?

While I have spent enough time on /k/ to believe that liberals break out in hives at the sight of a gun (and there's that story about a pink Pak, the polygon writer who's shocked by VR guns and that one reporter who go traumatised by firing an AR-15 at a gun range), I still find it ridiculous when Fran goes "what is that big ugly thing".

It's also fun how this guy and Ringo are vague about the religion of the protag. I think most of the conservative target audience claims to be Christian, even if they hate the poor and think that rape is great.

Back to guns: glad to see that Beehive Bob is choosing the manly pistol cartridge, the 45 ACP. Only a commie pinko librul would use the much inferior 9mm. I guess this book was released before Rainbow Six, as in that book they used MP5s chambered in 45 ACP (which exist, since MP5 is the AK of SMGs)

It's the dirtiest leftist podcast out there, so for the last month and a half it has been mostly about slamming Hillary and the DNC for their massive input in Trump's victory. They don't spare anyone in their criticism - even the left - but it's the right and altright assholes that stand out as their targets.

Sometimes, they read books by some crackpot or the other. The linked episode has a reading of True Alegiance by a racist rear end in a top hat pundit called Ben Shapiro. It's about halfway in. I don't remember what exactly was it about, even if I listened to it today, so I had to google it.

quote:

New York Times bestselling author Ben Shapiro’s new novel asks how close are we to our country’s collapse—and will we be able to stop it once it begins?

America is coming apart. An illegal immigration crisis has broken out along America's Southern border—there are race riots in Detroit—a fiery female rancher-turned-militia leader has vowed revenge on the president for his arrogant policies—and the world's most notorious terrorist is planning a massive attack that could destroy the United States as we know it. Meanwhile the President is too consumed by legacy-seeking to see our country’s deep peril.
 
Brett Hawthorne is the youngest general in the United States Army—and he’s stuck, alone, behind enemy lines in Afghanistan. He’s the last lost soldier of a failed war, fighting to stay alive and make it back home—but will he be able to stop the collapse of America in time? 

Ah, now I remember. Black people orchestrate police shootings of black kids for shits and giggles.

Well, if they are bad people, you can be racist against them. It cancels out!

Why would black and white people never interact anyways, as Ben believes? They might be shaped in some way by black culture (is there a white culture, outside of just "default culture"?), but they're not aliens, orcs or the French.

Ooo, ooo, a couple of pages late but I know an example. Sheri Tepper's SF/fantasy.

Her earlier books weren't too bad, but her more recent ones dear lord they're loving INSANE, and I speak as a pinko-eco-feminist-librul-etc. The stereotypical Tepper novel will start with a nice woman being oppressed by a) societal expectations, b) male relatives and c) looming eco-disaster, then at some point making friends with a powerful alien force that eats all the gun-totin' eco-unfriendly misogynists at the end.

Six Moon Dance is a particularly glorious example for the ending, where we find out that the author is perfectly cool with a planetary government selling girl babies to men on other planets because those are frontier planets where women are prized so of COURSE they'll be looked after.

(I'd realized she was barking mad and morally loathsome a couple of books before and was reading that one purely to see how bad it got, and I can say with perfect confidence that I never imagined it would get THAT bad.)

Is it Let's Read worthy bad and is she big like Terry Goodkind or something?

The dialogue makes all of the sense since basically 90% of surviving men are some crazy rapevivalists

I wonder how these people would explain Eastern Europe, where all the punks and rapists and whatever are all white.

On the other hand, I dunno how humane our treatment of criminals is, so maybe they'd view it as an example to follow.

OK!

I think this is the least concerned with the nuclear apocalypse book of all book featuring nuclear apocalypse. Cities and especially nuclear installations are basically intact, nobody is starving - the super flue in Duel is more destructive than this. There's basically no reason why nukes can't replaced by space cold or something.

Planned economy is good when I'm the one planning it!

I like how he mentions that anyone of any age can work which implies that child labor laws don't exist.

I wonder how this conservomunist communities deal with renumeration: is everyone getting the same share of food and housing? How do they determine who gets the better looted TVs or better housing? How do they determine the "worth" of work? What if someone is a poet or a painter, do they also have to clean the gutters and tear down housing?

I would have far fewer objections if they were setting out overtly to build communism.

As for the special forces, it's both unrealistic and unnecessary to have everyone trained to special forces level. Do you need your seal militia to guard places, run convoys, do engineering and logistics? A well trained militia would be enough and you don't need to seal train artillery men or TOW operators.
