"The position that our space industry isn’t doing anything for people here at home, published to Twitter from an iPhone connected to the internet via satellite, is not just wrong, but counterfactually wrong." https://t.co/6VybrDgPoN

When I seem some disphit assclown lib (nearly all of them, these days) talk about how space exploration research and the spillover effect from that (not just technical, either) never did anything for anyone, I want to take away everything from them that was in some way associated with that or sprung from it.

That’d eliminate a lot of the modern environmental movement, too, by the way.

Those mooks a million years ago would’ve been carping and attempting to prevent the use of fire with, “Don’t need that, we just bash rock, eat. Fire bad.” (You know it’s true.)
