I think you're talking about reversing globalism. I honestly think it's easier to develop space colonies than reverse globally entrenched political positions.

I think you're talking about reversing globalism. I honestly think it's easier to develop space colonies than reverse globally entrenched political positions.
If we don't spread out there is a 100% chance we will all die given enough time. There are political forces aligned with your position which would seek to redirect any efforts back towards earth. If those ideas become entrenched we will never escape this planet and we will be forever subjugated and enslaved by its political machinations.
With increased population density we always see more bureaucracy and authoritarian government and fewer freedoms and less autonomy.
- foreigner 5y agoNo, you're talking about transcending globalism by moving off or globe!
- gnarbarian 5y agoBasically I just want to blast off into space where people won't annoy me.
- rsj_hn 5y agoGlobalism has been reversed in the past. It's not some end state of humanity. Globalism => increased interdependence => increased fragility => collapse => localism => generate surplus from local institutions => increased profit opportunities from trade => globalism
