Getting into Stefan Molyneux levels of breeder fetish egg fixations, too.

    This is the worst future. I love space, I love space travel and I do truly believe expanding out to the stars is inevitable for humanity. But the governments of the world with space capable craft are either underfunded or too busy bailing out billionaire vanity projects.

    I have zero confidence that this man or his circlejerk corporate stooges can get ANYTHING to land on Mars. Nor will he be able to get anyone there safely. He has no serious plan for this, he’ll just throw his slave-labor money at a group of recent aerospace engineering graduates and tell them to figure it out, as long as it’s under budget, of course.

      I dunk hard on my-hero frequently because I am a deeply disappointed and jaded space exploration enjoyer that had a lifelong dream/fantasy of reaching for the stars that has been ideologically (and economically and politically) dominated by billionaire manchildren and their clownish personal whims for decades now.
