I don't even disagree but I still think we can't be looking at some mutli-planet bullshit until we have a framework for a more sustainable, more environmentally aware, infrastructure. We can't just go to Mars all 'yea we'll just find Mars Coal right?', we're like fifty rungs on the Star Trek ladder away from getting Vulcans knocking on our door.

In conclusion

Yeah, it’s maybe something we could think about if we somehow have spare resources in the planned-economy world state we’d need to fix our current situation but there’s no way we’re going to, like, escape our current predicament by moving a seed colony to Mars

there are no accessible planets, planetoids, or orbital objects which are within a hundred orders of magnitude of worth developing relative to stop loving up Mother earth's biosphere

colonizing extraterrestrial spaces is pure escapism, period. beginning to end. it is the heritage of mid 20th century white men seeking new colonial dominions. it is so drat fool you're better off shooting your dick gone with a pistol than ever saying "venus colonization is technically better than mars colonization" like just drown yourself in the battery acid sea rather than perpetuate old lovely ideas. space colonies are the phrenology of the 1950's and you will increasingly sound like an Old Man if you advocate such creaky, awful nonsense

This does not make sense when, again, aggregate indicia also indicate improvements. The belief that things are worse is false. It remains false.

my sister and i once took a month to drive from new york to la, and part of that trip took us through the deep south for the first time in our lives.

at one point in Georgia we were standing in the middle of a plantation turned wetland preserve, stifling in the muggy heat, staring at the canals full of murky water, alligators, and razor sharp grasses, and my sister observed "running away from a plantation must have loving sucked"
