SpaceX's Starship megarocket blasted off on its latest test flight, with President-elect Donald Trump joining Elon Musk to witness the spectacle firsthand in the latest sign of their ever-closer ties.
Honestly given current technology, it makes the most sense to care for the Earth than attempt to colonize other planets, which are fundamentally unlivable in a myriad of ways. Survival of our species doesn’t mean a whole lot if it is 8 guys in a Mars base dependent on regular supply missions from Earth.
Not to mention, if we do focus on our planet and how to best manage the environment, it teaches lessons on how to potentially manage other planets’ one day.
Hypothetically if the ultra rich built this up and got to a point where humanity is ending, and they could save 10,000 of their friends and hanged-oners, but everyone else on Earth dies, and you have a button that could trap them here, would you poke it?
Well first i believe thw earth won’t get to the point its completely lost except if we have a astroid strike or sonthibg of the sort. And second i probably wouldnt simply cos i believe humanity is worth saving over being a spitefull cunt.
U didnt answer my question would u willingly genocide 8billion people simply to get revenge on 1?
I wouldn’t kill 8 billion to get revenge on one person, nah. I’d happily let 10,000 billionaires die though if they were abandoning Earth and letting 8 billion people die. They’ve had innumerable chances to help lift up humanity and instead all they do is enrich themselves at the expense of the 99.999%, why the fuck would I care about humanity surviving if that’s what ‘humanity’ is being defined as?
I care cos the survival of our speicies is more important than any individual or their ideology. Plus i recon i got a real chance at being said elite.

I’d argue that if we can’t protect the little guy from the billionaires, then the race has no business continuing on into space.
So ur posing an ultimatum where one case is the extermination of our entire speicies the genociding of our enture spiecies.
Is that what u really stand for? The willing genocide of 8billion people?

Are there any extra effects if I push the button quicker or more than once? I gotta know if I should worry about spraining my finger or not.
