Any priest or shaman must be presumed guilty until proved innocent.
Always listen to experts. They'll tell you what can't be done, and why. Then do it. "
We don't really to have to infer though, Heinlein was an outspoken activist outside of his fiction, ran for office, etc.

Why did you reply to yourself several times? That’s probably why folks think this is a bot post. That’s not unusual for a bot to do- pulling posts and comments from somewhere else; actual humans tend to reply to people’s comments rather than their own

I've made the same points in many similar social media discussions. A bunch when people declared the Starship Troopers Movie wasn't satire.
I could have combined the replies to 1, but then they would exceed the character limit if I want to copy paste them elsewhere.
It's handy that the reply char limit in some places is same or smaller than the title of a post limit elsewhere.
I did the same thing recently, exported tweets, but sent it to my subreddit instead. Still working out what to send where :)
