Prior to becoming an author, Flint worked as a labor organizer and political activist, earning something of a reputation as a leftist radical. To this day he is a member of the Socialist Workers Party, one of the largest far-left parties in the United States (relatively speaking). To a casual reader this is generally not apparent--most notable is that his books generally have heroes with strong blue-collar values--but a reader schooled in Marxist theory or socialist history can pick up plenty of references. This usually confuses people who consider Baen, where he holds several important editorial positions, to be a conservative publishing house.[[note]]Which, for note, isn't entirely true. One of their flagship authors, for example, is Creator/LoisMcMasterBujold, a noted liberal.[[/note]]
