      I mean, of all things, why is that your biggest win?

      Exploring another planet is at least a worthwhile goal.

        Because it seems like his life-long dream, or at least an achievement that would cement him in the history books.

          That’s kinda petty though, I mean to hope an asshole stays a full asshole their whole life, rather than at least doing one good thing for the world, just because that might make them feel good… I mean that’s pretty shitty.

          I feel like even the worst people should aim to improve. And rooting against that improvement just feels wrong to me.

            You mean I should wish only good things for the dude who just took a chainsaw to the US government, helped defund important science including cancer research, removed one of the biggest platforms for liberals, promotes lies & misinformation, prevented real change for public transportation, is actively queerphobic, and did two Nazi salutes on stage?

            You’re missing the part where I’m more than happy for anyone else to take that role.

      I mean… Mars is cool in principal. its still easier to fix our world than to ever terraform another. It’s a very silly idea. But kinda like the moon. Little steps.

      Still. I want Mars to happen. just not this way. So I guess I’m ok with it?

        Yeah! I’m happy if someone else decides they need it to happen, but I want it cancelled for Elon specifically. I want him to cry sad, salty tears about it for days on end.
