The failure of blue states to build enough housing or take steps to combat displacement is going to continue to lead to population loss that makes winning nationally even harder.

Here's the incredible anecdote from Ironside's AV Club Random Roles interview, which is a lot better than I remembered it to be.

![Cannot fit all the text here (it is available in the linked article.) It begins: Starship Troopers (1997)—“Jean Rasczak” MI: It’s interesting, because I read that book—that’s Robert Heinlein, right?—when I was younger. My grandfather gave it to me. He was a paranoid, right-wing kind of guy. He wrote that whole kind of political, right-wing idea in the book, which was, like, “If you’re not willing to kill for your country, you shouldn’t be allowed to vote.” And he wrote a citizen’s manual after that, because he was so paranoid of the Communist scourge and anything that wasn’t straight up Republican American at the time. He was also a cross-dresser, I think, if I remember right. At the very least, he wrote a book right after that about this old man who had his brain transplanted into a young woman’s body [I Will Fear No Evil], and the book is just this constant going on and on about fetishes, about the way the nylon feels on his skin and the silk on his ass and all this shit. He was a very strange dude. I knew all this going in because my dad’s father was a member of the original Sci-Fi Club, which was Frank Herbert and a bunch of other writers before they were published. I actually read Dune out of a shoebox, and scrawled across the front of it was… Frank Herbert had written, “John: See if you can find any bugaboos in this. Frank.” It’s still kicking around. I think one of my nephews has it. But, anyway, I knew all this, but I also knew where Paul [Verhoeven] comes from, being a war rat, after the second World War, so I was, like, “Why is he doing this right-wing manifesto piece?” We’d already done Total Recall by this point, so I said to him, “Look, before I sign onto this, Paul, you want to tell me what you’re going to do with the material?” He said, “Are you questioning me?” He’s a very inflexible character… and a friend! So he said that, with his Dutch accent, and I said, “I want to know, because this is a right-wing manifesto!” He said, “All right, I’ll answer y…](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:vjf3wt7n5lffpcby73hw2pub/bafkreibqlcdkgiijn6njflvuccsioylt42wrbarbo6y262x3xs2dulghuq@jpeg)
