Yeah but I was told that the book I never read was all about fascism and that must mean that the movie I never saw was too and therefore the review I didn't watch by some hack frauds is also fascist and that means that everyone that associates with them is also fascist. Rich Evans is super mega Hitler!

Well, the original novel is actually pretty fascist, just not in a deliberate way. Regardless, most people who say the movie is Nazi propaganda don't even know there is a book. They just see clips from the movie and think because it presents a comically militant society of jingoistic thugs then it endorses that kind of behavior. We aren't dealing with smart people here.

Starship Troopers is where the mecha genre originated from it's also where Warhammer 40k took it's influence.
So Gundam with it's Zeon guys like Char and Warhammer with it's Space marines and God Emperor are both directly inspired by Starship Troopers as well as stuff like Starcraft. In Warhammer's universe this makes perfect sense to be at endless war and to have humanity be entirely weaponized just like it was in the Starship Troopers book. The whole line of thinking in the book is that the individual does not matter and it's only the mission, and it matters not who achieves the mission only that it simply gets done. Everyone is replaceable and temporary so it matters not who gets thrown at what and what the death count is, thousands came before you and failed and thousands will come after until someone succeeds at the objective, the government commands the whole of humanity from cradle to grave like a well oiled machine. There's also all the details about the giant robots they pilot to do battle with the bugs. It's supposed it about the loss of humanity and the individual so that's why giant robots are there, the machines have become the real body.
Mind you Starship troopers was written in the 1950's, that's how long ago this was.

I wonder with all the changes with YT that if RLM even cares about the algorithm and all that nonsense? For context:
How the fuck can any small channel survive on YT without Patreon? I assume that the majority of their videos are demonetized for cursing, violence, and this:
Last I checked they were making over $20K a month on Patreon so I wonder if they give a fuck any more about YT?

Some one explained it this way: R.A. H. Set up a society where Fascism could be ok and Justifiable
note everyone who wasnt a citizen had the rights of a modern citizen in a modern state

Not counting expenses, $20K a month split three ways while in Wisconsin seems more than enough to live off of if you're smart about it.

Their expenses seem pretty considerable, though. Professional studio space and equipment ain't cheap even in Green Bay Packer country.

True. They'd have to split it three ways because Rich used to live in Chicago during the early days of Half in the Bag and then moved to Wisconsin. Then you factor in merch sales and whatever they get from YT and it's probably closer to $25-30K a month.
Maybe not, they had the studio since the start of Half in the Bag. So they had some money saved up. It's supposedly a tiny studio so I can't imagine it costing more than 1-2K a month to rent.

My experiences with rent are limited to big East and West Coast cities, so I can't wrap my head around that. If it's a tiny studio, they really know how to make it work.

Technically a warehouse. East or West Coast sure, that would be fucking expensive like you said. But in Wisconsin I doubt it's that expensive.

Yeah, it's hard to go back to their early videos and see how different they look, it really freaks me out how fast the 2010s have gone by.

The midwest is cheap shit. My first house cost 300 bucks a month to mortgage and it was about the size of a standard apartment.
