Why go to Mars?
≠=============I have some philosophical questions, about the Mars missions, that I invite your thoughts on. I am a sci-fi fan and watch, read and write sci-fi myself. However, lately I have been wondering along the following lines:
Why are we funding Space missions with public money, when there is an underclass of people who are homeless, and hungry, and don't have their basic needs met? These people are marginalized, and too broken to cross the systemic hurdles that prevent them from voting. They are invisible to both, the leaders/politicians, and the bourgeoisie, who are kept entertained by bread and circuses ( Domino's & NFL ), too distracted to notice the stinky bum shivering on the sidewalk, who hasn't eaten a decent meal in days. We look away from the poor, thinking that they are suffering their own karma. Or maybe they are ne'er do wells, who should have studied and worked as hard as us?
They are actually co-equal to us. While government pays for Mars missions, with Public Funds ( let's get real and start calling it Public Funds, instead of "taxpayer money", which is misleading ), these people suffer. If they had any control over public money, they would shout, "GIMME EAT!", and not "let's send people to the Moon, or Mars, while I starve".
We have what Einstein called "a perfection of means, and a confusion of aims".
I would love to see human beings travel to Mars, and beyond. Yet, if we don't address our problems here, on Spaceship Earth 🌎, we will get to Mars, and recreate the same mess, and end up trashing the planet, and wanting to move to the next planet.
While going to Mars is a good idea, it should not be a priority for humanity, while we have poverty and war, and while Earth is being deforested and polluted.
With that in mind, please give me your thoughts.

"The Silent Majority" is a ruse that some politicians have created to create the perception that they have more public support than they actually do.
"You didn't get enough votes in the preliminary polls. How are you going to win the election?"
"Oh, I have the support of the majority. They're just... silent. They like to suffer in silence, and so they don't show up in polls. They are my base though. They are the strong, silent, hard-working people who registered to vote and will vote for me in the election."
This is a lie! In a Democracy, people are empowered to either vote, or abstain from voting, intentionally.
In reality, there is "The Silenced Majority", an underclass of poor people, some of them homeless, who are deliberately kept disenfranchised. There are so many systemic hurdles that prevent them from voting; paperwork to register to vote ( which marginalized people may not have ), or the sheer struggle of daily survival on the street. Being able to vote is a luxury one cannot afford, if one is fatigued from sleeping outside, not getting proper meals, and healthcare, let alone reliable information about the elections, candidates, public issues, and the solutions each platform promises. When a body is tired hungry, sleep deprived, stressed from not having regular showers or healthcare, the mind is not functioning well. Their executive functioning is so impaired, that voting to express one's preferences as a co-equal citizen of a Democracy, is a far cry. A homeless person is looking for their immediate needs, the next meal, a toilet, someplace to rest/sleep safely, medicine / medical care, and sometimes, an angry fix. They could not vote if they wanted to.
These people are kept down, because their suffering serves as a visible example to the middle class. The message to the middle class is - be a good worker, tolerate a toxic workplace, a job that slowly kills you, and don't ask for more. Obey the law, and cooperate with the police. If you fall out of line, you could become homeless like that person on the street you walk past every day. Enjoy your little material comforts, your bread and circuses ( pizza & football ), watch TV and media, and stay entertained. Be grateful to your capitalist masters, and don't unionize.
The upper class throws just enough crumbs from their table to make the middle class into happy slaves with Stockholm Syndrome, loyal to their bosses, anti-union and bourgeois in their political mindset, led around like sheep by mainstream media, supporting military spending and war, from being fed a steady diet of nationalistic propaganda. They often think that the system is fair, media tells the truth, cops protect them, courts deliver Justice, government means them well, and wars are fought for their benefit. They might look on the lower class, the homeless, with contempt, calling them lazy drunks and addicts, ungrateful and unpatriotic. Or they might throw them some pocket change to soothe their own malaise.
"Football, beer, and above all, gambling filled up the horizons of their minds. They were easy to control."
~ George Orwell.
This is how even well meaning voters are turned into bourgeoisie bootlickers, pawns of the elite, security guards, soldiers, lawyers, accountants, clerks, janitors, maids, delivery people, burger flippers, or workers filling any number of menial or meaningless roles, for little pay, with the illusion of freedom, sold on the ideals of nationalism, without feeling much solidarity with the homeless, and without a thought of standing up for their rights.
This is a Fake Democracy, a rigged system, political theater put on for the middle class, by the upper class.
This Divide & Rule strategy of the elite is what maintained the hierarchical pyramid of proto-democratic society.

Hello there, 👋🏾
Good to connect with you.
I have some philosophical questions, about the Mars missions, that you may be able to answer. I am a sci-fi fan and watch, read and write sci-fi myself. However, lately I have been wondering along the following lines:
Why are we funding Space missions with public money, when there is an underclass of people who are homeless, and hungry, and don't have their basic needs met? These people are marginalized, and too broken to cross the systemic hurdles that prevent them from voting. They are invisible to both, the leaders/politicians, and the bourgeoisie, who are kept entertained by bread and circuses ( Domino's and NFL ), too distracted to notice the stinky bum shivering on the sidewalk, who hasn't eaten a decent meal in days. We look away from the poor, thinking that they are suffering their own karma. Or maybe they are ne'er do wells, who should have studied and worked as hard as us?
They are actually co-equal to us. While government pays for Mars missions, with Public Funds ( let's get real and start calling it Public Funds, instead of "taxpayer money", which is misleading ), these people suffer. If they had any control over public money, they would shout, "GIMME EAT!", and not "let's send people to the Moon, or Mars, while I starve".
We have what Einstein called "a perfection of means, and a confusion of aims".
I would love to see human beings travel to Mars, and beyond. Yet, if we don't address our problems here, on Spaceship Earth 🌎, we will get to Mars, and recreate the same mess, and end up trashing the planet, and wanting to move to the next planet.
While going to Mars is a good idea, it should not be a priority for humanity, while we have poverty and war, and while Earth is being deforested and polluted.
With that in mind, please give me your thoughts.

Hello there, 👋🏾
Good to connect with you.
I have some philosophical questions, about the Mars missions, that you may be able to answer. I am a sci-fi fan and watch, read and write sci-fi myself. However, lately I have been wondering along the following lines:
Why are we funding Space missions with public money, when there is an underclass of people who are homeless, and hungry, and don't have their basic needs met? These people are marginalized, and too broken to cross the systemic hurdles that prevent them from voting. They are invisible to both, the leaders/politicians, and the bourgeoisie, who are kept entertained by bread and circuses ( Domino's and NFL ), too distracted to notice the stinky bum shivering on the sidewalk, who hasn't eaten a decent meal in days. We look away from the poor, thinking that they are suffering their own karma. Or maybe they are ne'er do wells, who should have studied and worked as hard as us?
They are actually co-equal to us. While government pays for Mars missions, with Public Funds ( let's get real and start calling it Public Funds, instead of "taxpayer money", which is misleading ), these people suffer. If they had any control over public money, they would shout, "GIMME EAT!", and not "let's send people to the Moon, or Mars, while I starve".
We have what Einstein called "a perfection of means, and a confusion of aims".
I would love to see human beings travel to Mars, and beyond. Yet, if we don't address our problems here, on Spaceship Earth 🌎, we will get to Mars, and recreate the same mess, and end up trashing the planet, and wanting to move to the next planet.
While going to Mars is a good idea, it should not be a priority for humanity, while we have poverty and war, and while Earth is being deforested and polluted.
With that in mind, please give me your thoughts.

Esther-Lester was our favorite performer at the Port Royal Fair in the 1970s. Back then, individuals born with variations in sex characteristics—then commonly referred to as hermaphrodites—faced absolute medical secrecy, forced corrective surgeries to conform to a strict gender binary, and profound social isolation. #hermaphrodite #estherlester #sexcharacteristics #variationsinsexcharacteristics #isolation #medicalsecrecy #forcedsurgery #forcedsurgeries #civilrights #transrights #equalrights

How news about #women’s achievements is apparently less newsworthy. I am not a sports fan but I didn’t see anything in the news about this feat. https://www.runnersworld.com/news/a71256182/rachel-entrekin-cocodona-2026/ #equalrights

"Callais Is Worse Than You Think. No, Even More Worse. Nope, STILL WORSE THAN THAT."
Opening Arguments covers Callais. They're right, it's still worse than that
It's not just voting, it's civil rights in general
They recommend to read Kagan's dissent
