>yearly NASA budget alone is around 40 billion USD >globally more than 200 billion is wasted on space exploration every year >that's less than what the west spends on aid to developing countries >ensuring that no child starves to death would only cost 30 billion
Escapism is the most dangerous of all ideologies. The manchild dream of leaving our planet behind is what lets people rationalize destroying the Earth and ignoring the plight of the third world. The super rich and their chosen followers escaping a ruined planet is starting to become a real danger. If we don't act now it might be too late. They're already lobbying for stealing more tax money the public desperately needs to fund their way out. And no, they won't take you with them, Yas Forums.
Thanks for giving that some perspective, NASA clearly needs more money and we should spend less on AIDS.

Would you rather A establish an ethnostate on the mars? or B give gibs to little black kids that'll end up shooting each other once the next tribal war comes around
Why not just round up everyone else, except whites, and jettison them into space? You don't even need to send them anywhere. Just direct them into the sun. Then we can spread out and start over without giving up Earth.
Ok ok you figured me out. I am busted. All these years i plotted to get off this rock, but not before killing trillions of children. And i would have gotten away with it if it werent for you pesky socialist kids.

I say, if thee doth imagine thineself exploring the newly discovered American lands, then you are a traitor to god and country! >Cartographers are paid their weight in spanish gold. >Across the civilized world, vast quantities of goods are wasted on exploration of the americas every year >tis more than what the common man gives to the pauper >A mere vessel filled with grain could put a stop to the starvation in our city.
Adventuring is a most silly notion. Pitiful miscreants dream of venturing away from their homeland is what causes the poor man to go without bread, and the streets to remain derelict. The nobility moving to these lands puts us in danger. Make haste gentlemen! The tax collectors hand steal your hard earned coin to fund our Lord's armadas! Tis a foolish notion to believe they will bring you along!
Naw, it’s a third world country for a reason. As soon as we help, their population goes through the roof and we get a government like what’s now available in SA or Zimbabwe. Zimbabwe may have learned their lesson too late, but at least they're acknowledging it. SA is in its beginning stages of a downward spiral.
Besides, it’s better to teach a man how to fish rather than give him fish. He just becomes reliant.

So let me get this straight, you rather waste money feeding ever increasing number of niggers instead of space exploration ? You came to the wrong neighborhood, Hans.
Isaiah Lewis
I despise people like you. You refuse to understand that it’s not about “escaping” anything, it’s about being drawn to the unknown, to mystery and discovery. What will it take for you talentless degenerates to make that connection?

Great. So what are you going to do with the excess population, nazi?
Levi Ross
You know what? Fuck it, maybe part of it is wanting to escape something: stubborn retards like you. Die in a ditch.

Who spent money on the developing west? Why should I care that other countries aren't developed when it was their own responsibility to do so? Why should I care that there are children starving when not only is that completely natural, but those children were had by the irresponsible or even the savage and are genetic rejects on a grander scale?

Have fun sticking around when the sun expands and engulfs the earth.
