KSR is a big time leftie

I would say a commie based on some of the story themes, but there were so many other good aspects that I had to overlook it.

You’ll also have to say that KSR had a very activist view on global warming in his book: the whole premise (for others reading this post) of the book was the terraforming of the planet Mars (they used engineering and planetary science to metamorphize Mars into a habitable place).
