He’s just going to get people killed. But that’s ok he doesn’t give a shit anyways, so it’s moot. What are a few thousand dead peasants when we could make big stock number go up?

    I’m kind of relieved we’re extincting ourselves before we become an interstellar plague of misery, with children being born into inescapable, perpetual oxygen debt to the local corporate leadership on Mars and Titan colonies.

    We’d make the Ferengi look like altruists. We were a mistake of evolution.

      It took WW3 to fix humans in Star Trek. In that timeline, they outlawed genetic engineering so that elite supermen cannot be made.

      In ours, I hope we outlaw millionaires and worse. That way, elite dinguses cannot be born.

      It’s the current western dominionist mindset that’s the mistake. Don’t mistake that for all of humanity (even if it currently makes up 90% of it).
