It literally starts out by re-contexualising the ex-millitary putsch attempts in Weimar Germany as a Good Thing.

Ok, I have to admit I did not read the full book, just the beginning, but do not remember this. But I was told it was not meant to be dystopian. On the other hand, Heinlein did had some extreme views, though, so I am not sure, what the message of the book actually is.
