Except, of course, that this critique is not based on what's actually in the book. Voting rights in the Starship Troopers civilization depend upon "National Service", but that includes civilian as well as military service. (After all, most of the time there's not a war on.)

What really irks me about that critique, though, is not the claim that the fictional nation was militarist or fascist. It's the leap from there to the claim that the author is those things. That the same man wrote the hippie-neopagan favorite, Stranger in a Strange Land, never seems to register with those bozos.
