I just started thinking about it. Why is space exploration even that necessary? They're spending so much money on it when we have so much problems in our own planet..

no prescience needed; the american gov't has literally been doing that since the 1920's. lol

you would know this already if you spend your time reading these public domain file releases instead of uncritically ingesting propaganda.

    i don't thing anyone can argue against self reliancy in our critical infrastructure.

    our disagreement is centered on the misguded belief that the western world (the united states in particular) will ever stop burning fossil fuels. the united states became self reliant on fossil fuels during the biden years and the epsteins will guarantee that americans will stay trapped in this climate killing version of self reliancy until they've squeezed every last drop of oil profits out of the united states and venezuela.
