Go to Mars.
- vkou 1y agoIt would be great if he stopped talking about it and would go ahead and do it.
- phatskat 1y agoYeah you may not want that - Musk’s plan to get to mars involves, not necessarily _intentionally_ but with no attempt to avoid, ruining the earth for everyone else. He and his billionaire friends that want to colonize space have said they intend to do it by any means necessary, including by walking on the backs of us poors, if it means their progeny can outlast the rest of earth.

- woooooo 1y agoGreat irony that his moment of maximum leverage with DOGE was spent slashing basic research.
