What do you think about inserting personal politics into your works?
>>25198162Being apolitical is a political stance.Just by describing (as a whole or in part) a society, an era or something as simple as a family dinamic in a good light can be viewed as an endorsement of said entity (as a whole or in part)
It's fine as long as you don't proselytize or strawman your political opponents.
>>25198211Extremely low IQ post that shows you couldn't even understand the tweet OP posted
>>25198162dependsam i an incel racist magat fuckwit or a free democratic based chad who loves women and people of all colors and creeds?
>>25198807ntaWeir is making 2 separate points, the first that he doesn't want to inject anything into his work other than the story and exclusively wants to entertain and not educate the consumer.The second is that he doesn't want to talk about his personal political beliefs publicly which >>25198211 is addressing. Claiming no-opinion or not wanting to talk about your political opinion in related and valid discussion is simply because you're embarrassed that it goes against what is considered reasonable and "good", i.e that you're on the mutt-right and know you'll be shunned for being a retarded cult member
>>25198162I'll say the same thing I said in the /tv/ thread. All the great scifi have a "theme". It need not political but it certainly doesn't need to be as empty as Weir's work as well. It's not surprising that the man who wrote empty slop like The Martian and PHM thinks this way. This is also why he appeals to manchildren.
>>25198812You're getting called an incel either way, and your opinions are stupid but contextually convenient, so it doesn't matter.>>25198825>/lit/>the "obliquely talking about Trump" boardYou're a retarded cult member if everything needs to be about Fronald Frump. Why are you even on this website if you're such an odious midwit?
>>25198162Apathy, ever the companion of oppression.
>>25198849>American>Not wanting to out his political opinionIt's far beyond obvious why mutts do this and there is only 1 real reason. I'm sorry you're so indoctrinated in their propaganda that you can't understand simple things

>>25198863Nothing you say has any basis in reality. You are inventing all of it in your head because you are mentally ill.
>>25198852you're going to be on the wrong side of history and I'll be in the tiktok archives marching in the streets like civil rights activists in the 60s
>>25198211>>25198825>>25198858I pity people like this who are incapable of enjoying or thinking about anything without injecting identity politics. Truly one of the most pathetic copes you can have.>erm actually its inherently political to-Pathetic.
>>25198858>implyingYou're so far off the mark it makes me sick.
yikes the goy defense force is out in full swing today
>>25198870Same as when you go to any video of a clip from a movie with a dictator, an old person, or an idiot character. There are always a few low IQ comments "hurr durr, reminds me of [trump, biden,etc]" to farm for cheap likes. Some people have made it their whole personality, and pollute things everywhere they go. These same people are incapable of abstract thought and have to inject modernity in everything they do, because they've never had a transcendental experience in their miserable fucking lives.
>>25198162Only heard of this Jew a few days ago when audible was shilling a book of his titled Artemis right after the space capsule launch. Really jogs the nog.
>>25198891that's cuz artificial team-sports is level 1 consciousness, at which the majority are.
>>25198162It's like he didn't even read his own book
If it’s your work you can do whatever the fuck you want
>>25198162>insertingA work can certainly be political if it's organic but if you just pick a spot and "insert" it, you've got problems. -- Think of the last third of "Atlas Shrugged."
>>25198211He didn't say he was apolitical, you retard.And you're also wrong, like your fellow retards who call atheism a religion.
>>25198162Andy's personal politics are in the story. They're just sufficiently boring to not be remarkable. The world banding together to solve the problem isn't idealistic as fuck? Somehow a global task force is created with enough resources to build spaceships, to operate on aircraft carriers? Even the interspecies cooperation plot is heady idealistic space communism. >>25198825>doesn't want to inject anything into his work other than the story and exclusively wants to entertain and not educateHis work is injected with a fucking laundry list of his personal likes and dislikes from art to science and yes, politics as well. What he's presumably trying to say is that he doesn't want his story to just become preaching to the reader. But even that is half baked because there are plenty of good books that openly proselytize the reader. So the actual problem is bad writing. This whole "THEY MADE IT POLITICAL" debate is uncharitably just a bunch of chuds being asspained by experiencing any media that disagrees with them. Charitably, it's more about the delivery being awful and they're just too dumb to articulate this. The back and forth on deliberately political media like Star Trek exposes them as drooling retards even when given hours to articulate their objections so the problem is likely the former, not the latter. Andy's comments were in direct response to this crowd as he said it on some youtube retard's podcast.
>>25198221Strawmanning and whataboutism are my specialties
>>25198858I'm sorry you let us live rent free in the pea-sized cranium of yours, you could always just shut off your computer and turn 360 degrees and walk away
>>25199870Is it one though. Most atheists are very dogmatic about their claim against God.
>>25198162>I put no politics or social commentary into my stories at all.The two stories of his that have become major Hollywood blockbusters both involve the governments of the world effectively working together in harmony to help a dude who's in space. If he doesn't think that's politics/social commentary, he's a fucking moron.
>>25200037>deliberately political media like Star TrekOr any sci-fi, for that matter. It's always political. Cyberpunk stories, for example, carry a heavy undercurrent of anti-capitalism.
>>25198825>leftoid projecting own cultish inclinations episode 105772915
>>25198162Based. I really have politics fatigue at this point.
it's because he writes books that sell to christians, a big audience, but he also wants to sell to libleft slopoids as well.

>>25198211>they hated him because he told them the truth
>>25198162I’d like to put a little more into my blogging but for some reason I like to keep it to only an occasional hint of spiceIt’s like sitting down with my text editor makes me too calm to needle my enemiesI’m not sure why this happens
>>25200492>being right wing means you're an IndianYawn
>>25198162They say politics but really they just mean not making everything about Trump. Ideating international and interspecies cooperation in the face of an interstellar ecological crisis and using a non-genocidal solution to the astrophage is very political. It just didn't have orange man bad in it so he doesn't think he does politics.
>>25200086He clearly means retarded internet culture war bullshit
>>25201062Can't wait til that fucker dies so everyone can FINALLY shut the fuck up about him
>>25198162I've said this before, but everybody gets a grace paragraph or two to go on a tangent, but if they're going on about it throughout the book, I think it's crass and kind of pathetic.
>>25201118retard direction brains are going to lionize or demonize him long after he dies
