I work where I have to meet lots of people that are generally not happy to see me because I'm talking to them about problems their kids are having in class.

See, I always thought you has some kind of office job adjacent to the IT sector, or something, cause that also comes up a lot in your posts.

All stories are about inner and outer human conflict. Your characters' goals, motivations and the adversities they face will always be dictated, or at the very least strongly influenced by your ideology and world view.

This explains why I'm terrible at writing anything, or coming up with good overarching plots whenever I want to run a TTRPG. Because I don't really understand other people very well.

it also normalized the idea of "space exploration is about doing a capitalism" for way too many people.

Which is hilarious, because exploring space is probably one of the worst ROI things that there is, next to trying to economically exploit the lowest depths of the ocean floor.

Tangentially, I consider NASA to be an integral part of the US Military Industrial Complex and I find the English-speaking left's somewhat uncritical embrace of it to be strange.

My answer is: People like Star Trek, and want a thing like that IRL.

If you go to space and reduce the state's involvement and corporations will seize on each and every single thing they can to save money and exploit people more. The marginalised will be the hyper-exploited the further into the periphery you get. The central core planets might be better off.

New MandaloreGaming review has a game that touches on this idea a lot.

I don't see what this guy being a crypto-dude has to do with the argument you're making here. I'm not even sure what that argument is, specifically, tbh.

As if paying rego for a car and having easily identifiable license plates doesn't make you easy to track in your movements.

I've seen more than a handful of people driving around these days without license plates actually attached & visible on the backs of their vehicles.

Both the head & body are individually quite round. However you have yet to complete 100% roundness, because the two are still distinguishable between eachother.

Never Stop Posting. posting

The groups I know which organize women workers are also the groups arguing for better language. The liberal groups I know who argue against inclusive language are the groups which often are not in solidarity with women workers when there are strikes or conflicts between bosses and workers.

In light of that info, I retract my previous argument.
