Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No bigotry of any kind, including ironic bigotry.
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: Do not post public figures, these should be posted to c/gossip

Ultimately it's an economic thing, you know? Like the early American settlers did have a religious aspect to it as well but many moved because they recognized that their material status would be better in the colonies, or even that they literally couldn't afford to keep living in their home country. I wouldn't exist if Irish landlords hadn't jacked up rent prices.
I can't imagine a point where moving to the Moon or Mars makes economic sense, certainly not in any of our lifetimes.
They would be labor colonies for manufacturing, mining, and research. Like what we have in the remote parts of the world now.
