Political Fiction Books

[Anonymous No.9253795]

List books that you can build a political idea or party around.

Like Dune or Atlas Shrugged (not saying they were good). Preferably ones that you agree with because you can give a good argument for them.

Just read everything by Robert Heinlein, he idolizes/satirizes different political/cultural points of view in a lot of his different books.

Specifically:
Starship Troopers
Stranger in a Strange Land
The Moon is a Harsh Mistress

I loved MHM all the way through, the others to a lesser extent. It's fun to read them all back to back and see how you feel about each one without knowing beforehand what political message he's going for for each book.

Building a political party around Heinlein books is the most 'I'm an American neckbeard who can't think in grey tones' thing you can do

Oh whoops I guess my reading comprehension is retarded, I thought he was asking for politically motivated sci fi books.

why the fuck would anybody build their political ideology around a fiction book, don't do that you idiot the whole point of all the books I recommended was that they overdo it and exaggerate it like crazy, plus all three are totally different ideologies.

if you build your ideology around any books i'm sure the people who spend all their time reading different philosophers can tell you what to read, but don't read Dune and then decide the solution to all of our problems is to have a near-immortal demi god see the future and rule everything for thousands of years.

i thought this was one of the most political of Frank Herbert's books. he basically called out the (fictional) government (of the time) as complicit in a scheme to trap millions of people and use their bodies in a body swap / immortality deal.
