The most popular and loved space video game with the best sci fi universe is about an American space soldier of the future with a cool spaceship who unites the galaxy against an ancient unstoppable threat!



I bet a conservative person could write something like that!

Conservatives! Show us you are excited for the future! Show us that you value science and technology!

Good question. I don't know too much about sci-fi, just some Heinlein and that stuff. But I've noted the lack of creative production from the "conservative" camp. I think that this is based on an absolute fear of the human imagination that seems to be a staple in conservative culture

What you have actually noted is the lack of publishing; not the lack of creative writing. When major publishers don't publish a persons writings; you don't get to read them. Even if they were published it is unlikely that you would enjoy reading them, as displayed by the rest of your statement. Such writings would not stroke your political proclivities, and as such it is unlikely that you find yourself able to be immersed in such writings.

I don't read for political purposes. If I know that something is just written to slog some ideology, you're right. I properly won't bother.
There are plenty of publishers out there. I see them advertised on TV all the time. Remember that J.K. Rowling's manuscript was rejected by 12 publishers before is was accepted by the thirteenth. E.L. James published the perfectly awful "Fifty Shades" and made a fortune. Now, more than ever, authors can do what they want, mainly thanks to the internet. And writing is just one genre. How about making an indie film? Look at how "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" took off. Not my thing, but boy, did that turn out! Musical composition? Songwriting? Comedy? Drama? Dance? Conservatives have got to get out there and show their "right stuff," particularly after all their grousing about everybody else.

Why couldn't liberals write an election victory?

Maybe a little to concerned with fantasy?

Well... when a work of art causes a “buzz” so to speak; one usually hears of it from their peer group or preferred form of media . Which is just a form of circle jerking. In other words the books you claim haven’t been, or aren’t being written; are in fact probably already on bookshelves waiting for you to pick them up.

So how do you pick the things that you read? And what about all the other activities through which people can display their creativity? If these people are doing something great in any creative field, they should get it out there in public.

Conservatives do write, but much of it is rejected because we don't glorify queers and trannies in the writings.

Oh, is that the reason. One thing that I notice that the right-wing crazies do is equate mentioning that a certain person is present with "glorifying" them in some way. If the fictional characters Tom, Jim, George, and Oscar have girlfriends, and Luke has a boyfriend, and they are all in hot and heavy relationships with adults in the story line, the right-wing imbeciles go absolutely nuts at the mere presence of the gay character. If all five guys order tuna sandwiches for lunch, the crazies still go nuts. They are only satisfied if the gay character is portrayed as an evil person.

In general, though, even if you have a good manuscript, it still might be rejected, as had happened to J.K. Rowling. But if you market it around, eventually it probably will be picked up.

Most of the time, I don't know the politics of the authors I read. I've enjoyed the likes of Ken Follett, Robert Ludlum, Tolkien, Toni Morrison, Heinlein, Umberto Eco, Douglas Adams, the great Russian authors, Mitchener, to name only a few. I haven't got a clue as to what their political views are or were. But authors have got to get in there.

Then there are the other genres. Springsteen has brought the house down musically on at least two occasions, writing about current events. His song for the movie "Philadelphia," about a gay man dying of aids (played by Tom Hanks) was able to capture the emotional ups and downs of such a character. Then he wrote one, in first person, about a firefighter trudging up the stairs at the World Trade Center. We all know what happened to that firefighter. Both times, he was able to write as if he was the person in question. There is also play-writing, dance, visual arts.

Artists who are politically conservative can get out there and contribute to the mix. No one is stopping them.

You have an obsession with gays. But there is no reason to expect that the rest of society is going to bow down to your tastes and prejudices.

I don't have any obsession with anything. Regressive libs shut down conservatives every chance they get. Fact. A while back you could hardly see any news with hearing about rioting and burning and threatening over conservatives at some event or doing something.

 

[theDoctorisIn]

‘Starship Troopers’, ‘Stranger in a Strange Land’, ‘Janissaries’...

Just a few of many very conservative sci fiction masterpieces.

Robert Heinlein was not a "conservative", in any sense of the word. He was about as libertarian as you can get.

 

[theDoctorisIn]

Firefly ...

The most Libertarian show ever.

Joss Whedon, on the other hand, is most certainly a liberal, and not a libertarian.

Seriously? All the time? the trumpsters did their share, as well as the morons in Charlottesville. All the right-wing "speakers" do is say bad things about other people, and stupidly insist that somehow they are so smart that we all need to follow them. The right-wing bimbos do get to speak with their noses in the air. Don't think that the Americans whom they constantly seek to boss around, as if they are people of consequence, will let their aggression go unnoticed.
