    Yes, we should definitely not have something like Sweden or the old New Deal. We should let children grow up in poverty, let old people suffer, and let the planet burn while we sit around discussing Trotsky and the Second International in hopes that the revolution will come.

    iirc de La Cruz got less than 100,000 votes.

    Let’s start of list of great authors/projects that have never had a single movie.

    I’ll start. Poul Anderson. He created Dominic Flandry, a smooth, cynical playboy diplomat who, as an Agent of the Terran Empire, fights to keep the decadent Emperor in power for a few more years. Another great character is Nicolas van Rijn. Imagine if Harry Mudd was a little fatter and a whole lot smarter. He’s head of a galactic trading company who outwits various aliens and humans in the name of sweet cash money. Anderson also created dozens of alien races and imagined the worlds they lived on.
