Somehow it’s heroic to abandon your kids who you raise on your own after their mother died to strap your ass on a big ass bomb, to go to a giant rock we already found to be inhospitable and useless 50 years ago. But thanks to the dick measuring contest between billionaires and dictators these days who sell their dumb ideas with fancy CGI promo videos which are total bullshit, we’re doing it all over again. It costs billions, while people can’t pay their rent, food, medical bills.
So I get the downvotes if you’re an American patriot who jerks off the flag every day, because Americans don’t seem to care about child welfare with all those school shootings and known pedophiles voted Into office. Otherwise it’s just dumb to think this guy is somehow a hero for risking his kids losing both parents. Or that the crater thing makes up for it.
On the surface, I agree with you. As a parent myself, I would never go to the moon on a test flight like this.
As an American, though, I’d like to take a moment to politely tell you to go fuck yourself.
Wait! Let me explain. You have very good English, which suggests you’re probably from a well-developed country where English is a primary language. The level of hostility in your tone makes it unlikely you’re from a developing country. And even if you were, that wouldn’t put you in a better position to criticize.
If you are from a well-developed country, that means you have your own problems, don’t you?
Talk about the pot calling the kettle black.
If you don’t like America, then get off Lemmy. Because guess what? Lemmy was largely developed by an American. Yes, I know it involved collaboration with developers from other countries, but the primary origin is still American.
Ignoring all your weird patronization of the global south…

No idea if the main developer, comrade dessalines, is American, but they have a Che Guevara profile pic.

Two of the other original devs are Nutomic and SleeplessOne1917. Nutomic has a Fidel Castro pfp, and SleeplessOne1917 uses the year of the October revolution in their username. Safe to say the devs of Lemmy do not like America. They also admin lemmygrad.ml
Might want to check your assumptions (and western chauvinism)
If you don’t like America, then get off Lemmy. Because guess what? Lemmy was largely developed by an American based communist revolutionaries. Yes, I know it involved collaboration with developers from other countries the great satan, but the primary origin is still American Marxist-Leninist.
I couldn’t care less where the other devs are from or their ideological/political associations. All of that is entirely irrelevant.
What is relevant however is exactly what you didn’t want to talk about. For example, what country you’re from. Which tells me pretty much everything I need to know. Just put a sock in your mouth and shut up.
I get why you’re being downvoted, but there’s definitely a wee bit of truth in there…
true

Here’s a snippet from the US atrocities section of their essays repo:

FTFY!

Also not taking the bullshit communist bait.
