they only like science when it serves their political agenda to take from productive people and redistribute the money

when a rich man tries to push humanity forward its bad



its not about poverty, in fact they need it for their own existence

without poverty they couldnt spread their propaganda that its always somebody elses fault and their own paychecks would disappear

left wing politics, poverty, state handouts, charity etc is a business model for scumbags without real skills

not entirely true my friend. they love al gore, clooney, obama, gates, zuckerberg etc. (all owners of exclusive oceanfront properties when they are citing rising sea levels as a major issue)

Getting humanity off this rock is far more important to the future social and economic health of our species.

It boggles the mind that there really are modern day luddites who believe space exploration is a bad thing.

same group who says the age of exploration is the worst thing ever

This silly dick measuring contest between vain billionaires was not space exploration nor did it put humanity forward. Space exploration is a great thing. Space tourism geared toward the top 0.0001% is not.


If Branson/Bezos/Musk wanted to help push humanity forward and into space, they should have given the funding to NASA, or used it to create some sort of private space agency, rather than waste it on suspiciously phallic-looking rockets to launch themselves into space.
I'll let Musk pass in this regard since his SpaceX program has made a tangible contribution to space travel, but Branson and Bezos can get fucked.

should they use their money to raise awareness on climate change instead like al gore, clooney, obama, gates, zuckerberg etc. (all owners of exclusive oceanfront properties when they are citing rising sea levels as a major issue)

i know you’re not like this but the rampant obsession by envious bernout underachieving inferiority complex-having miserable creatures with other people’s money is ridiculous. life and building things is not a ‘zero sum game’!

Oh man, some people made incredible wealth? Damn, that must totally disprove my point. I definitely hadn't thought about how some people are able to get rich. My whole worldview is shattered by your incredibly impressive, well thought out, and novel argument.


Imagine thinking that financial equality is something to strive for. You provide a service or goods for other people and get rewarded accordingly. Lazy human scum think they are entitled to everything, no btch you want something go invent or provide exceptional service, stop mooching of other people. What's next sexual partner inequality? We should redistribute hot babes to incels because it's all in the name of equality?

Plz stop posting I've already told you that your political views are dog water everyone here knows this

Why do you think it's quite important for them to do so?

Let say in the future, water become problematic, where do you think we'll obtain water from?

We can turn salt water into drinkable water.

The rich will control what's most important to us with food. Why you think billionaires buy all the farms?

Eventually, you guys will get the bigger picture as things unfold as time goes by.

They print money to buy real things. (Lands, business, metals, things with real value).

Why do you think they push crypto? Because it comes from thin air and worth something.

You can use something like crypto to buy real things like lands.

Oh man you've made totally made accurate characterizations of my views and are in no way beating a straw man. I've been defeated by your logic.

there are a lot of things that you might consider bs at first, but it ends up being useful

projects like these help providing easier access to space, you cant expect it being a town bus ticket from the start

doing things that have never been done before, thats how we move forward

automobiles started as a top 1% thing with plenty of people thinking that we should stick with horses

Nobody in this thread said or implied space exploration isn't valuable. You guys are literally just making things up to he mad about.

Two people have enough money to feed basically everybody on the planet for an entire year.
Factually might be accurate but why would they spend their entire wealth dissolve their entire industry they've built up and convert it into food?

but we definitely don't have a problem with wealth inequality.
Literally just explained why

You didn't explain why though, because you don't understand the issue or even what my position is.

All you've said is that mobility is possible. Sorry that's not enough.
