So, this is some convention for science fiction, I've never heard of but they are warning people about Seattle?


On what planet could people believe that LGBT people are more safe in Gaza than Seattle?

I’ve heard that Republicans are forcibly castrating gay men.

No, wait. It’s Democrats and they’re forcibly castrating preteen boys, regardless of sexual orientation.

Science Fiction has always had a Leftist component, sometimes with a little balance from liberterians.

There are very few conservative oriented Science Fiction books. I am trying to think of some.

Perhaps someone can help me out with that.

In fantasy, perhaps the Lord of the Rings Trilogy...

Short range SF now occurring “The Camp of the Saints”.

Kurt Schlichter’s People’s Republic series.

Matt Braken’s Enemies Trilogy.

The Weapon Shops of Isher... More liberterian than Conservative

So, there are some. Where are those which incorporate Christian faith in the story?

Seattle used to be, in the not so distant past, the most livable city in the nation.

It used to be called the 'Emerald City'.

Now, since before it became the home of the 'Summer of Love' as declared by the lesbian Mayor of several years ago, it is a dump. No one on the East side of the Cascades wants to go there except for emergencies.

Of course this was based upon Elon Musks threat to round them up and deport them to Arrakis to be food for the sandworms.

“our theme is an acknowledgment that we have not successfully built the future we have aspired to, but we are also inspired by optimism for a better future”...

This must be the person that wrote Kamamala’s speeches.

The paranoia here is off the charts.

This is Seattle. An arriving BLTQXYZ+ guest could probably arrange to be drawn to the convention site in an open chariot pulled by teams of prancing ponies of two-legged variety, wearing jock straps, feather boas and nothing else. And every step of the way they would be hyperventilating about the reign of terror under which they were living.

These people are insufferable. Heinlein would have kicked their asses.
